A SERIOUS CHARGE _ CON BRIGEMAN, A CARPEN TER CHARGED WITH RAPE Father Of The Girl Attempts to Take Brigeman s Life With Shot Gun From Tuesday's Daily. Con Brigman, a carpenter at the M. P. yards, was arrested yes , terday afternoon by Sheriff Fen j ton and lies in jail, facing the serious charge of rape, alleged to have been committed about a week ago on the person of Miss Elsie Bobbett, who is barely 111 years of age. Her father did not learn of the occurrence until yes terday, and in his anger, he se cured a shotgun and made a trip to the yards, and upon meeting Brigeman. knocked him down with the gun and evidently in tended to slioot him when Sher iff Fenton, who hud feared troub le and followed him to the yards, placed Brigman under ar i est and got him into the auto and out of reach of the furious father. Sheriff Fenton’s prompt and courageous action undoubted Iv saved Brigman’s life, but even as it was, be was compelled to lake bis prisoner to the county paiI by a circuitous route, as Mr. Bobbed seemed bent on getting a shot at him. ltridgman is not very well known hero, having come from St. Joe about five weeks ago. While the minor details of the unfortunate occurrence will not he known until the time for trial, it is likely to go hard with Itrigeman if the charge is proved. It is to he greatly deplored that anything of this serious mi lure should occur at this time, or any other, as far as that goes, l ut it is also true that the law should be allowed its course in any event, and Sheriff Kenton deserves great credit for the man ner in which he prevented blood shed. The affair caused quite a sen sation al the yards, and the shop men packed so close about Mr. Mobbott and Itrigeman that Mr. Kenton had difficulty in reaching tlicmm in time to prevent Itob bet t from earring out his evident intention of taking Itrigeman’ life.
