Farm Youth Admits Killing When Found Milking Cows; "Drew Bead on Heart, Fired," He Says.
Slayer Taken to St. Paul as Mob Violence Is Threatened Near Ringe.
Margaret Wegman, 20, beautiful St. Charles girl who this year was teaching her first term of school near Rochester, was killed by a jealous suitor at 4:30 Thursday afternoon in her schoolhouse ten miles north of Rochester, because he "could not find the right time to court her and didn't want anyone else to get her."
Her slayer, Douglas Petersen, 24, a farm youth of the neighborhood, is in jail in St. Paul, bound over to the Olmsted county grand jury which meets June 3. He confessed the murder when he was arrested while milking the cows at the home of his employer, George Steiger, three hourse after the killing.
Miss Wegman was graduated from the teachers training class of the St. Charles high school last year. The graduating exercises of the 1930 class, which were to have been held tonight, have been postponed to an indefinite date on account of the tragedy. Her cousin, Frances Wegman, is salutatorian of the class, and her chum, Evelyn Cook, is valedictorian. She was with the two girls frequently when at home for week-ends.
The St. Charles girl was killed as she stood in the door way of the school waiting for a girl friend who was to call for her and bring her to the farm where she roomed. There was a heavy rain and Miss Wegman was alone in the school house.
Petersen confessed that he was standing about 12 feet from Miss Wegman when he fired, and that she had not seen him. The bullet from the .22 caliber rifle pierced her heart.
