terield county, on Monday night by four men.
Patrick Dwyer John Griscall, Patrick Cronan and
Cornelius Cary. The particulars as far as we could
gather them, are about these: Some six months
ago Patrick Dwyer and Michael O'Hara had a
difficulty, and ever since then Dwyer has been
seeking an opportunity to be revenged on O'Hara
Last Monday evening O'Hara and one or two
friends went into grocery kept by Richard White
head, opposite Weisiger's hotel to get something
to drink, and while there Dwyer and his three
contederates came in. They had been there but a
short time, Mr.. Whitehead having gone into the
street to talk to friend, when OHara was knock

manner. Whitehead hearing the noise rushed in.
and seeing O'Hara's condition, seized Dwyer and

yesterday poor Bradley died. Stamped crushed

spectacle ever beheld
There seems to be but little doubt that DIVER

be assi9ned for the violence used towards him. as
