Metzger states that Chavez had confided
to him a plot to kill a man who had on several
occasions threatened to “peach” on him if he
didn’t do so and so. Metzger informed him that
he could not allow anything of that sort about
the Hubbell ranch, when Chavez sprang for his
rifle and fired at him, the bullet passing through
his clothing. Metzger then fired upon Chavez,
killing him instantly. Chavez was the mayor-
domo of Mr. Hubbell’s sheep herders. Metzger
today gave himself up to a Socorro deputy
sheriff.
