Ind., Nov. 21. —Authorities today believed Jesse Roach, 12. found dead on the bank of Sugar Creek near the city dumps here Thursday afternoon, was accidentally shot by one of three boys, who were hunting, Wednesday afternoon. James Roach, a brother, found the body almost twenty-four hours after the boy had disappeared. The family had not become alarmed until Into Thursday because the lad was j in the habit of spending nights with friends. Edmund Newlin, 13, and James Roach went hunting Wednesday. George Roach, another brother, went with Jesse. The two parties met near the dumps. James told Coroner J. B. Griffith and Police Chief Vernon Shields, that he gave his gun to George and he and Newlin went heme about 4:30 p. m., Wednesday. Shot at Rabbit Newlin, according to the officers, said that just before he left he saw j Jesse run along 'he bank of the creek, climb over a gate and disappear. A moment later a rabbit Jumped up in that direction and I Newlin said he fired at it. according to the officers. The body was found rear that ; spot. Coroner Griffith stated: ‘’There is no reason to believe there is murder in this case. We can find no motive or incentive for murder. The shooting was most probably accidental. but the boys are afraid to say who did it or honestly do not know." Family Destitute The slain boy was the son of George Roach, 74. who is partially paralyzed and unable to work. The family, which includes three sons and a mother. Mrs. Bertha Roach.' 42. is in almost destitute circumstances. Coroner Griffith stated Jesse died almost instantly, the bullet from a .22 calibre gun. piercing the heart. He said the shot had to come from close range to penetrate the body. The first theory that the lad had been shot by bootleggers was abandoned soon by authorities. Where the boy was shot, however, police said, was a rendezvous for drinking and many white mute bottles ' were scattered around. Authorities! suggested that Jesse may have been shot while the boys were firing at the bottles. Chief Shields is locking for a boy with whom Jesse ha i a fight hist week. Funeral services for the lad will probably be held Saturday. BENJAMIN PERK IN LINE May Succeed Harry Bogs as Chief Accountant of Commission.
