San Bernardino Daily Sun (San Bernardino, CA.), P.14, Col. 2 Sun., Apr. 26, 1908 Excerpt from; THE PIONEERS The committee on Festival of the Arrowhead reported most gratifying progress, Brother brown stating that the members sent to the mountains to secure materials for construction of the log cabin had met with complete success, and that the timbers were now on the site selected. A large yellow pine was cut on the Knapp ranch, but proved utterly unfit for clapboards, or shakes, and a large sugar pine on the Thompson ranch had to be felled, some of the riven boards being on exhibition, along with the indispensable froe and oak mallets. Albert Burton, a son of Pioneer Burton, took down the first load, and Russ Fabun and George Worthington also placed their fine teaming outfits at the service of the delegation. The cabin will be 18 x 20 in the clear, and its construction will be commenced Monday morning, with Messrs. Miller, Corbett, Weir, Lackey and numerous other experts, as architects and operators. Brother Holcomb said that Brother Goodlett would aid in "putting up a corner" of the cabin, and Brother Thomas eloquently referred to the fact that aged men, none under 70, had done the most of this hard work, especially alluding to Brothers Stoddard, Burton, Holcomb, Woodward and Knapp, who were aided by those younger Argonauts, Brothers Corbett, Smithson, Weir and Brown. In the 1910 U. S. census, 44 yr. old Amasa R. (Russell) Tabuer (Fabun), a self-employed Teamster doing any hauling, b. in CA., was living in a rented house at 640 Harris St. in San Bernardino Ward 5, San Bernardino county, CA. with his 24 yr. old wife, Annie Tabuer (Fabun), b. in CA. 4 yr. old daughter, Evelyn Tabuer (Fabun), b. in CA. Amasa's parents were both b. in UT. Annie's father was b. in CA. and her mother in WI. This was a first marriage for both Amasa & Annie. They had been married for 6 yrs. Annie was the mother of 1 child, still alive by this census. San Bernardino Daily Sun (San Bernardino, CA. P. 2, Col. 3 Fri., Sep. 6, 1912 COUNT SCHOEN WINS EASILY IN COURT Gus (Russ) Fabun Seems to Fear His Wife, Who Was County's One Witness Count Von Schoen won a single-handed victory in the justice court yesterday when he went to trial charged by Russ Fabun, Cleghorn canyon rancher, with battery. The accused had retained Attorneys Daley & Byrne, but the big Ocean Park fire compelled their absence from town. "I don't want to put the county to any further expense, so I'll waive the presence of my lawyers and go to trial now," said the count, when his case was called before Justice G. M. Pittman. Fabun took the stand and testified that the count had ordered the little Fabun girl out of the truck garden. Fabun took exception to this, and told the count he could leave the ranch. The count drubbed Fabun over the head with a walking stick, and therein lay the basis for the charge of battery. The count asked Fabun whether he had not an open knife in his hand at the time of the battery. Fabun denied this, claiming he had placed the knife in his pocket. Mrs. Fabun was called to the witness stand by the county, and her husband asked that she not be cross-examined. The husband appears to be in as much terror of his wife as of the count. She said that she had not seen the alleged assault. As the charge simmered down to a mere question of veracity between the count and Fabun the court dismissed the case and ordered the count's release from custody. San Bernardino Daily Sun (San Bernardino, CA. P. 2, Col. 2 Tue., May 22, 1917 BADLY CUT BY UNKNOWN MAN IN SALOON Russ Fabun Near death at Ramona Hospital While Police Search City Frightfully cut in the abdomen, Russ Fabun is at the Ramona hospital, where physicians are continually watching his chances of life. Fabun was stabbed several times by a man, unknown to the police officers, in the Gem saloon during a fight late last night. Fabun came to the police station, the officers say, in a fainting condition from the loss of blood, which issued from several deep wounds in his abdomen, and explained that a man, whom he did not know had cut him with a pocket knife. The officers immediately went to the Gem saloon, where faun says the fight took place, and after questioning William Vardy, the bartender, learned that a man named "Olson" did the cutting and later made his way from the place. The bloody knife, which Vardy says he took from the man, was secured by the police, and may be a means of identifying the slasher. Chances Are Slight Fabun was rushed to the Ramona hospital, where Dr. McHugh put him on the operating table for a hasty examination. Later Dr. McHugh announced that Fabun had only the slightest chances of recovery, as the knife had penetrated the liver and several of the intestines. A search of the city was instantly inaugurated, and up to a late hour the man "Olson" had not been located, although Night Sergeant Flory stated that a house, believed to be the home of the man who used the knife, was being watched. That there is some mystery, or some one is "hiding" the knife wielder, is believes by the authorities, as no one in the saloon at the time of the cutting could identify the man. It is possible that persons may be arrested and closely questioned regarding the identity of "Olson." Dr. McHugh remained at the bedside of Fabun throughout the night in the hopes of saving his life. San Bernardino Daily Sun (San Bernardino, CA. P. 4, Col. 6 Sat., Jun. 2, 1917 ISSUE COMPLAINTS FOR NEAR-MURDERS State to Avenge Assaults on L. M. Field and Russ Fabun Complaints charging assault with intent to murder, were issued yesterday by the district attorney's office against Stephen Barry, who shot L. M. Field; and Albert Oleson, who knifed R. A. Fabun. Both injured men, it is believed, will recover, and the district attorney's office has now proceeded on that theory, charging assault with intent to commit murder. There had been the possibility that murder complaints instead of assault complaints would have to be issued. Preliminary hearings will be arranged as soon as the injured men are able to testify. In the 1920 U. S. census, 54 yr. old Amasa R. (Russell) Fabun, a farm laborer working out, b. in CA., was divorced and living alone in a rented home in Hesperia, San Bernardino county, CA. Amasa's father was b. in PA. and his mother in Michigan. San Bernardino Daily Sun (San Bernardino, CA.), P. 12, Col. 3 Thu., Feb. 22, 1945 Rites of A. R.
