perfectly quiet. About twer minutes subecpiently
three men, named respectively Benjamin Leggatt, James
Pattingale, and James Sanders, were passing by the
dour of a person named John Haverson, when, in con-
sequence of some offensive language allege:l to have been
used by them against Sarah Haverson, the wife, whilst
the men stood in the road, she opened the street door of
her house, and deliberately discharged at them a loaded
gun, and seriously wounded the whole three in the abdo-
men, and other parts of their bodies. The parties
of " Murder I" policy ofeer having raised the cry
Moore imrnefiate!y I,rocecried is the rpot, and g
brood running along the grow d, an.l the men w.•urided
aN previously described, he went and apprehended the
