W. Bouton. Lester Simons, well known Bradford attorney and E. W. Jones become bondsmen for the lad. ______ Darrel Dufton, 16, fired the fatal shot which early Monday morning resulted in the death of his father, Fred Dufton, 47, of Wrights, following a protracted period of alleged drunken raging during which Dufton had driven all members of his family from their home and had threatened to kill them. Darrel made a complete voluntary confession to County Detective Jack Allison yesterday afternoon. "I did it because I couldn't stand to see those little kids get their brains knocked out. I wish I had shot myself instead of him," Darrel sobbed out the story of the fatality. Coroner H. Clay Heffner conducted an inquest into the fatal shooting last night in Gallup's undertaking parlors In Port Allegany. Mrs. Dufton and Fred were the chief witnesses. Darrel was not present. He is being detained in the county jail, a formal charge of murder having been lodged against him following his confession. Mortal fear and deep love were the motives which prompted the shooting - fear that the father would harm the little ones and a love for them which prompted him under the influence of uncontrollable fear to blindly stop the father from harming the innocent children, 3 and 7 years of age, both boys. The weapon, a 16 - guage single barrel shotgun, had been 'planted' beside the dead man, it was brought out at the inquest. This, it was testified, was done at the suggestion of the mother in an effort to shield her boy. The suicide story was first told because the older members of the family were so upset over the tragic incident that they were unable to think clearly and realize that this was a false move. When under oath before Coroner Heffner last night, Mrs. Dufton told a straight forward story, bearing out all details the confessions already made by her sons and of which she knew nothing before she took the witness stand. That Dufton had come home intoxicated Sunday October 16th and had gone to Liberty and imbibed in more spirits. Returning borne, he apparently was crazed by the liquor he had drunk and began slamming the door, getting a drink of water and hurling the glass out the window. He next, according to the testimony, deliberately demolished a number of fruit jars which Mrs. Dufton had just finished washing. Then he got an iron and hurled it and went into the pantry and broke nearly all the dishes there. After this, he went outside and started to demolish the family automobile. He returned from the garage and said he would "wind the children (Continued on page 4) lynnuglyhead7 Member Photo CLIPPED BY lynnuglyhead7 • 01 Mar 2018 CLIPPED FROM The Kane Republican Kane, Pennsylvania 19 Oct 1927, Wed • Page 1

Clay Heffner, who conducted a preliminary investigation of the shooting last night. The bullet which caused Dufton's death struck him from, a distance of approximately 100 feet, Coroner Heffner believes, and spread so as to cause 13 separate wounds, two of which penetrated the right kidney and the back of the neck, resulting in internal hemorrhages which caused instant death. The weapon used was a 12 gauge shotgun, the property of Dufton, which members of his family, the sole witnesses of the affray, claim was in his hand at the time of the shooting. It is the opinion of Coroner Heffner who has made the only probe of the shooting, due, 'to County Detective Jack Allison being in Buffalo, that Dufton could not possibly have fired the shot which resulted in his death. The coroner will hold an inquest tonight at 7 o'clock In the Gallup un dertaking parlors at Port Allegany to determine the cause of the death. Preliminary reports of the affair which reached the coroner led to the belief that Dufton had committed suicide by firing a shot into his brain. The coroner found however, that what was believed to be a gunshot wound through the brain was merely an abrasiou caused when the dead man struck his head against some object while tearing about In an alleged drunken - fury. Coroner Heffner said last night that he has only the story of Fred Dufton, Jr., his brother, Dearrel, 16, and their mother, Mrs. Dufton in regard to the shooting. . The trio told the coroner that Dufton had spent the early portion of Sunday evening in Liberty where ho had been drinking heavily. On returning home the father immediately picked a quarrel with members of his household, smashing windows and chairs as he threatened to kill the three older members as well as two Infant children who were asleep. Dufton then asked for his shotgun, and fearing that he might carry out his threat of wholesale murder, Mrs. Dufton told the coroner she secured the weapon and two shells, the only ammunition in the house, and hurled them out of a window. Taking her three-year-old infant In her arms, Mrs. Dufton said she ran to the home of a neighbor, Cecil Russell, requesting that he visit the Dufton home and try to quiet her frenzied husband. Russell did as requested, the woman said, and after talk ing to Dufton believed that he ha brought his into a more amiable frame of mind so returned to his own home.
