11 "County and Vicinity Items," (De Ruyter) N83. De Ruyter Gleaner, 1925 July 9, p. 1; "George Mantell, 40, of Chittenango, a highway laborer, died Monday night in Canastota Memorial hospital with a bullet in his left forehead after a shooting fracas at the Bridenbecker hotel, Chittenango Station. Herman Bridenbecker, 70, proprietor of the place, was arrested by state troopers on an open charge pending an investigation. A revolver that troopers believed figured in the affair was found in the search of the place."

Prop. Bridenbecker and Others Detained -- Facts of Shooting Meager
Called to Chittenango Station Monday morning to investigate a case of lost automobile license plates, State Troopers Palmer and Williams were tipped off that something was wrong at the hotel there conducted by Herman Bridenbecker, and on investigating found George Mantell of Chittenango unconscious in a chair and apparently suffering from a contusion on the head. Efforts to revive Mantell at the hotel by the troopers failing, they took him before Justice of the Peace Randall S. Carl at Chittenango, who ordered his examination by Dr. W. E. Deuel. Dr. Deuel found the man in a serious condition, and ordered him to the Canastota Hospital, where close examination showed that the apparent wound in the head was a bullet hole. At once the troopers returned to the hotel and took into custody Herman Bridenbeck, and later his housekeeper, Mrs. Sadie Gardner, and Thomas Heffron, Frank Fitzpatrick, George Meyers and others who were in the place or had been during the day.
A target pistol was found of 22 caliber, and later it developed that the bullet in Mantell's head was also a 22. In the pistol was an empty 22 shell. The bullet entered Mantell's head above the left eye and was finally removed from his cheek, lodging on his upper jab bone. Mantell died Tuesday. He is survived by his wife, Anna Chisman Mantell, and nine children. Mantell was a farmer and general laborer. All persons in the hotel at the time Mantell was found or who had been there later, were questioned, and are being held for further examination. It is alleged that the housekeeper later admitted that she heard a shot fired during the morning, but know nothing else about it. An autopsy was held Tuesday by Coroner Barton at the Tyler undertaking rooms in Chittenango, where the body was taken after Mr. Mantell died. The Bridenbecker hotel has been involved in trouble before. Herman Bridenbecker has several times been involved in excise violations and is now out on bail pending a hearing on a charge of Volsted violation... In searching the hotel after the shooting the troopers found containers with alleged super-Volsted liquid therein. Herman Bridenbecker is now being held by the troopers pending further investigation."
