“Man Shoots Doctor Kills Self At Southampton,” Owen Sound Sun Times. June 16, 1930. Page 1 & 5. ---- HUTCHESON JACKSON KILLS HIMSELF AFTER SHOOTING DR PATRICK SCOTT HIS PHYSICIAN, THROUGH HEAD TWICE ----- Well Known Southampton Physician in Owen Sound Hospital in Very Precarious Condition at Present Time ---- WAS MAKING PROFESSIONAL CALL ---- Doctor Who Was in Attendance to Man Suffering From Nervous Trouble, is Shot Down While Making Call --- A report on the condition of Dr. Patrick J. Scott, of Southampton, who was shot by Hutcheson Jackson, on Sunday morning, is to the effect that at noon Monday he is making excellent progress at the Owen Sound General and Marine Hospital. His attending physician, Dr. T. M. Middlebro, stated that his temperature was normal, and he was in good spirits, although it is difficult fro him to take nourishment because of his sore throat and broken jaw, and he is unable to do much talking. Should there be no infection he will recover is due course, but will be confined to the hospital for some little time. ---- The town of Southampton which has been very much in the public eye of late, was aroused in its very depths on Sunday morning, when it became known that an attempted murder followed by suicide had taken place during the early hours of the day, in which of its prominent citizens were the victims. Dr. Patrick J. Scott well-known physician, is in the Owen Sound General and Marine jpspital with two bullet holes through his head and a very precarious condition, while Hutcheson Jackson, is neighbor, lies dead in Southampton, having taken his own life after he had attempted to take that of Dr. Scott.

The double tragedy has aroused the quiet lakeside town such as nothing else has for a long time, and it was the chief subject of comment among the residents all day Sunday, and much sincere sympathy is expressed for the friends and relatives of both men.

Jackson Insane There is no doubt that Jackson, who was a man 60 years of age, was out of his mind when he made his murderous attack on Dr. Scott, who was his attending physician. He suffered a nervous breakdown several weeks ago, but his condition was not considered such that it would be necessary to keep a close watch on him, as he gave no signs of violence at any time. On Saturday night, however, he was unusually nervous and he went for a motor ride with his friends and neighbor, Malcolm Matheson, who remained with him until 2 o'clock in the morning. Jaackson arose at his usual time on Sunday morning, had his breakfast, and went around the outside of the house. No person ever suspected that he even owned a revolver but when Dr. Scott, who had been treating him, put in his appearance around 9 o'clock, Jackson greeted him with the words "You’ll not put poison in my medicine" and whipping a Smith & Wesson .38 calibre revolver from his jacket when the doctor was quite close, he fired two shots, both of which took effect.

Course of Bullets One bullet entered the head about an inch in front of the right ear, smashed the jaw, passed through both tonsils, and came out in exactly the same spot on the opposite side of the head. The other bullet entered the thick part of the neck at the rear, passed through just a short distance above the spine and also came out exactly opposite to where it went in. Dr. Scott showed remarkable grit and stamina after he was shot, as after he turned and walked across a small field to his own home and sat down on the rear steps bleeding profusely. He was perfectly conscious, and asked that Dr. Laird he sent for and when the latter arrived he at once saw the seriousness of his condition and accompanied by Chief of Police Norman Murray, he was hurried to the Owen Sound General and Marine hospital where he received further treatment from Dr. T. H. Middlebro, and other physicians in the city.

Fired Shot in Brain Soon after the shooting of Dr. Scott another shot was heard, and this time it was Jackson again, only he had turned the deadly weapon on himself. He placed the muzzle close into the corner of his right eye and pulled the trigger, the result being that his brains, were blown out and death was instantaneous. He was about six feat from his kitchen door at the rear of the house when he fired the fatal shot. The revolver was found close to his hand by Chief of Police Murray, who had heard the shot and was hurrying to tho scene when notified of the first shooting. The gun was covered with blood and the face of the dead man was badly scorched, so close did he put the gun to it. Dr. Laird, who was a coroner, after investigating the circumstances, decided that an inquest was unnecessary, it being quite apparent that Hackson had taken his own life.

The Longe Connection The shooting of Dr. Scott recalls the fact that he is one of the principal witnesses in connection with the Longe case, as he was the physician first on the ground after Earl Yoemans had been struck down in the lonely woods on Thursday, April 10. and for the murder of whom Harry Longe will be tried at the Fall assizes at Walkerton. In this connection it is alleged that the nervous breakdown of Jackson was due to some extent to his relations with the Longe family and that the house in which he resided had been purchased from Mrs. Edward Longe, mother of Harry Longe. There were many negotiations rewarding the sale of the property due to the fact that it was originally Crown lands and considerable difficulty was experienced in securing the deed. These things had preyed greatly on Jackson’s mind of late.

Well Known Residents Jackson was unmarried but made his home with his sister, Mrs. Donald Munn and they resided on Lansdowne Street . He is also survived by three half-brothers, who reside elsewhere in Ontario. Jackson was a fisherman and sometimes worked on his own behalf while he sometimes worked for Malcolm Matheson, his next-door neighbor. He was industrious, and it is said that he was financially in excellent shape. He had lived in Southampton nearly all his days and was looked upon as a good citizen.

Dr. Scott, who is nearly 65 years of age, has been a practicing physician in Southampton for a great many years. He served with the Canadian troops during the Great War, and rendered excellent service as an army doctor. He is also quite prominent in Masonic circles in Southampton. His many friends will sincerely hope for his early and complete recovery. He has one son, a civil engineer, who resides in Quebec, and he has been sent for and is expected to arrive here on Monday night.
