Svenska Tribunen, Apr. 3, 1901

p.11...... Fred Hanson, who, on December ninth, last year, shot and killed Edward O'Connor in a room at 164 Ontario St., was declared guilty of manslaughter in the second degree last Friday, by a jury in Judge Tuley's Court. Punishment for this crime is, according to criminal laws, from fourteen to twenty years at hard labor.

The criminal is of Swedish heritage. He was born in Iowa in 1875, but has lived in Minneapolis for nineteen years. He came to Chicago in the early part of September last year. Jealousy motivated the crime. Both men were in love with the same girl. The murder was committed in her room.
