Inquest into Killing of George Snyder Held
J. M. Young, Whose Plea of Self-Defense Is Challenged, Held Responsible in Verdict
At an inquest held by Coroner Ellis Duncan yesterday afternoon into the death of George Snyder, the jury returned a verdict to the effect that Snyder came to his death by gunshot wounds inflicted by J. M. Young. Snyder was killed several days ago following an argument over a right of way for a road between the farms of Snyder and Young. They lived near Hikes Point on the Taylorsville Road. Young claims that Snyder drew his revolver before the fatal shot was fired. Testimony before the coroner s jury was that Snyder did not draw a weapon. Deputy Coroner William Kammerer testified that when he searched the body he found a revolver in the left pocket of the dead man s trousers. He stated that the cylinder of the revolver contained five cartridges and none had been fired.

Inquest Is Set For Friday
Coroner Duncan Will Investigate Killing of George Snyder by John Young
Coroner Ellis Duncan will hold an inquest Friday morning at 9 o clock to determine exactly the circumstances of the killing of George Snyder by John M. Young on the Taylorsville Road, yesterday afternoon. Young came straight to town and surrendered to Jailer Pflanz. He stated that the shooting was due to a quarrel over a right of way, and that he shot after the other man had drawn his gun. The affair happened on the right of way between the two farms. Coroner Duncan, who made an immediate investigation, found dust on the guard and trigger of Snyder s pistol, which was in his pocket. On calling the attention of witnesses to it, a man who saw the shooting declared that Snyder had nothing in his hand when Young opened fire. Three shots struck Snyder, one grazing the right temple, a second plowing through the left side of the body, and the third, which caused his death, striking him squarely in the back of the head. William Snyder, a son, witnesses the affair from a distance. Snyder leaves several children in addition to his wife. Young is married and has four children. Young was presented before Muir Weissinger County Judge, today and admitted to bail in the sum of $5000 and his examining trial set for Saturday, April 17. E. R. Sprowl was accepted as bondsman for Young. Young appeared in the courtroom with his wife. Edward G. Klemm appeared as attorney for Young and made the motion for bail. He briefly stated the case to Judge Weissinger, reiterating the fact that Snyder was the aggressor and was on Young s place.

Road Tragedy - J. M. Young Charged With Killing G. Snyder - Quarrel Over Right-Of-Way Ends in Shooting - Coroner Finds Victim s Pistol in His Pocket - Self-Defense is Claimed
Although John M. Young, aged 52, a farmer, living one mile beyond Hike s Point on the Taylorsville Road, charged with having shot and killed George Snyder, 44, a neighbor, yesterday afternoon, asserts that he shot Snyder only after the latter drew a revolver on him. Coroner Duncan discovered dust on the trigger of Snyder s pistol. Dr. Duncan declared he further found that Snyder s pistol was in his pocket and that a bullet wound square in the back of the head caused the man s death. The investigation of the Coroner was made immediately following the shooting, the body of the dead man not having been moved until Dr. Duncan and his deputy, William T. Kammerer, arrived on the scene. Snyder had three bullet wounds in his body. One bullet grazed the right temple, clipped a notch from the right ear and fractured the skull. Another bullet entered about two inches to the left of the center line of the front of his body, passed through the body and was located under the flesh in the back of his body. The third bullet, which caused his death, according to the Coroner, entered the back of the head. Upon discovering the dust on both the front and back of the trigger Coroner Duncan called the attention of two witnesses to it. Young surrendered at the jail yesterday afternoon. He told the deputies he had shot a man, but at that time he did not know his victim was dead. To reporters Young declared that there had been bad feelings between himself and Snyder for some time, growing out of an argument over a right of way. He declared the road was on his property, but that Snyder, who occupied an adjoining farm, contended it was his ground. He frequently ordered me off the road, but as it was on my own property, I drove my team over it again, Young said. I was planting potatoes in my field when Snyder came over to me and told me to get my team off the road. I told him that if he would give me time I would take the team off the road and never use the road again. As I started to go toward the team, he drew a revolver on me. Then I drew mine and beat him to the shot. I am not sure how many times I fired, but I believe it was twice, was Young s story of the trouble. He declared that after shooting Snyder he turned and walked away without looking to see how badly his victim was injured. He said he drove his team to the barn and unhitched. Then he went into his home, cleaned up and, boarding an interurban car, went direct to the jail. Snyder s body was found by Alex Kennedy, whose farm is across the Taylorsville Road from that of Young. Kennedy said he heard three shots fired and saw Young leave the spot and go to his home. Kennedy said he went to the scene and found the body. Life was extinct. The Coroner and the county police were then notified. Snyder was 44 years of age and is survived by a widow and several children. Young is the owner of the farm where the shooting occurred, and has lived there about two years. He has a wife and four children.

William J. O Hearn, for fourteen years a member of the City Council, president of the Kentucky Colonels since its organization and superintendent of the J. B. Wathen Distillery for the last fifteen years, died at 4:55 o clock yesterday afternoon at his home, 2435 West Broadway, of stomach trouble after an illness lasting eleven months. He was operated upon last April. Mr. O Hearn fought his illness heroically and was at his office until last Monday. He was compelled to go to bed then and sank rapidly. He was conscious to the end and recognized his sisters and other relatives who were at the bedside an hour before his death. He was 55 years old and unmarried. Representing the Twelfth Ward, Mr. O Hearn was elected Alderman for fourteen years, but retired about eight years ago. He had opportunity to be elected president of the Board of Aldermen, but did not seek the office when he learned that Charles F. Grainger would be a candidate. Mr. Grainger was elected at that time. Mr. O Hearn was a ready maker of friends and was a Democratic leader of his section of the city. He was made president of the Kentucky Colonels, a Democratic organization, when it was first organized, and had been re-elected every year since. He had never sought any other office except that of Alderman. He was a member of the orders of Elks and Red Men. The funeral probably will be held tomorrow, but definite arrangements will not be made until the arrival of his nephew, George McCran, from Pennsylvania.

J. B. Martin, 19 years old, a printer, employed by the Mayes Job Printing Company, dived from the canal wall at the foot of Twenty-fourth Street late yesterday afternoon and did not return to surface again. His body was recovered by a crew from the Coast Guard station and the exact reasons for the young man s drowning still remain a mystery. Martin was an excellent swimmer and there was no bruise on his head to indicate that he had struck any object in the twenty feet of water into which he had dived. The coastguardsmen believed that Martin was the victim of cramps, both arms being still when the body was rescued from the water by them. In company with Byron Durham, 17 years old, Martin went to the canal to swim shortly after 4 o clock yesterday afternoon. The two lads amused themselves for some time in diving from the canal wall and swimming about. Durham was in the water when Martin made a spectacular dive. That was the last seen of him. When his companion did not return to the surface, Durham ran for assistance in his excitement instead of trying to locate him by diving. After some time the Coast Guard station was notified and a crew set out for the scene. Their passage through the canal was greatly impeded and almost thwarted by the presence of a heavy drift of debris. They did not reach the place where Martin had disappeared until nearly 5:00 o clock, but it was not long after that the dragging hook brought up the body. Hoping that still there might be a spark of life, the crew resorted to artificial respiration for almost an hour in the hope of resuscitating young Martin. About a pint of water was expelled from his lungs. Finally all hope of reviving him was abandoned and Acting Coroner Kammerer was called. He ordered the body sent to the undertaking establishment of John Maas & Bros. Floyd Street and Broadway where it was prepared for burial. Besides his mother, Martin is survived by his stepfather, J. M. Anderson, who is connected with the R. E. Wathen Distillery Company, and three stepbrothers, Harold, Noland and Eddins Anderson. The family home is at the intersection of the Seventh-street Road and the Bernheim Lane. Arrangements for the funeral have not been completed.

Citizens of River Front Mourn Death of Friend - Joseph J. Repetto Widely Known for His Philanthropies
Louisville s riverfront is in mourning. Here and there groups of men and women could have been seen yesterday talking in low tones, while the children were strangely quiet. Joseph J. Repetto, probably the best known and most beloved citizens of the district, was no more. Repetto was not a financier, nor was he a big business man, the esteem he had won being due entirely to the fact that he had devoted his entire life to aiding his fellow men and women. All the education Repetto had was what he picked up himself, but the work he did often was declared the most practical sort of philanthropy. It is recounted that never did a needy person ask him twice for aid. Seldom was it necessary for them to ask him at all, for Repetto had some unknown way of keeping in touch with the needs of the less fortunate in the community and always where he was needed most. When the pinch of winter came there always were many who faced hunger. Time and again those who had emptied their last bucket of coal in the stove were unexpectedly visited by Repetto. Then for a time at least, there was no suffering from hunger or cold in that family. If a man needed money, whether Repetto knew him or not, he could have a few dollars for the asking, and never was he questioned when he would return the loan. Children loved him and he loved the children. There was nothing he would not do to make them happy. He never cared whose child it was, whether it was white or black. He loved them all, just

cause they re children, he would say. Repetto was born on the river front forty-seven years ago. He began work in a broom shop when yet a small boy. Twenty-three years ago he went into business for himself and has conducted a broom factory ever since at 136 North Third Street. He began life penniless and at the time of his death was a wealthy man. He was always active in the work for the betterment of the section of the city in which he lived and was spokesman and legal advisor of his neighbors. He is survived by his widow, Mrs. Arkie Repetto: two daughters, Mrs. Carrie Roach and Miss Katie Repetto, and three sons, George, Charles and John Repetto. Charles Repetto is in the United States radio service, stationed at Camp Buell.

John P. Kelly, 76 years old, figure in the Louisville Police Department periodically for fifty years, fell dead of apoplexy while waiting for a street car at Twenty-eighth and Madison Streets at 11 o clock yesterday morning. Mr. Kelly was going to his home 3638 West Chestnut Street, for lunch at the end of his watch at Fourth District Police Station. When he fell bystanders carried him into Schnepp s Grocery. John Kelly is best known as the man who owned and operated Kelly s Park, Twenty-eighth Street and Elliot Avenue, for a number of years at one time one of the most popular places of amusement in Kentucky. While operating the park he contracted for the first balloon ascension in Louisville. Another achievement in which he had a part was freeing turnpikes of Jefferson County. In 1897 he retired from business in Louisville and moved to a farm on the Cane Run Road in Jefferson County. The movement to do away with tollgates beginning about this time, Mr. Kelly organized the Free Turnpike League of Jefferson County. Free turnpike advocates throughout Kentucky were destroying tollgates, but when the radical element in this county suggested such methods, their leader dissuaded them pointing out that lawlessness would be ineffective. In the first election called the league and its followers were defeated, but in the second election two years afterward, travelers were freed from toll by a large plurality. Mr. Kelly was a candidate for the General Assembly from the Fifty-first District in 1902, but was defeated. His service in the Louisville Police Department dates back to April 1870. He was probably the oldest man in point of service in the department. He was a First Lieutenant when John G. Baxter was Mayor. Mr. Kelly was looking forward to April 1, at which time he intended to resign as patrolman and celebrate a golden jubilee. Mr. Kelly was born in County Galway, Ireland, in 1844. He emigrated to the United States when he was 13 years old, coming to Louisville at once with his parents. His death was unexpected. According to his son, E. C. Kelly, Mr. Kelly had often said that he had never been ill a day in his life. Mr. Kelly was a member of the Catholic Church. He is survived by his widow, Mrs. Rose Kelly; a daughter, Mrs. John Quinn, and four sons, W. C. Kelly, Thomas F. Kelly, E. C. Kelly and Theodore Kelly.
