Mr.. George Gage, grocer on Seneca street, pro-

store, and after asking for an account which Mr..
Gage had against him, drew a revolver and rap.
idly discharged five shots against Shaer-only one,
however, took effect passing through the right

As soon as the act was done, Mr. Forbes at once
gave himself up to the offcers-he was entirely
calm-expressed his regret that the man Shaler
was not killed-said he had good and sufficient
cause for the preparation of his apparently rash
act
