We esin from q geHtleman. recently from lao
County that about the ss of the present month, Don
Limo Vigil. brother of the present Sherlh oil that

who was at the tine the Sheriff and Deputy Marshal,
held wsrrant for the arrest of Vigil the execution
witch was II sisted by the latter, who was at the nc
intoxicated. As Vigil advanced upon De Pew with
drawn bOwe-knfe, the latter drew his revolver end
.bot bin, the wound taking instant fatal effect.
