TRAGEDY IN PORTSMOUTH, n. Hive briefly no.
ticed, yesterday, shocking occurrence in Ports
mouth N. H., by which the life of a worthy lad y
was sacrificed. The following particulars of the
tragedy from the Boston Ledger of Tuesday:
Mr.. SpinDey, a wood dealer in Portsmouth and
his wife, went yisitiug last evening to the house
OF friend, and there met Mr.. Downing, All EN-.
pioyee in the Navy Yard. In the course of conver-
satiOn between Spinney and Downing, the fipan.
cial character Of third party was commented on
in severe terms by the latter, while the former
denied the assertions made. The dispute became
personal that Spinney said Downing was no
better than his friend. he owed him S25 for
wood, which he would not pay. Further recrimi.
nation followed when Downing left, went to his
house and got his gun. lie then counted out Is
buck-shot III the presence of the inmates with
which be loaded it, aud when asked what his OBJ
jcct was lie said he had beeu insulted by Spinney
aud was going to shoot him. He then got cap
and put it on the gun. but took several spare
ones, saying be would be prepared for an accident
III case the one he had on should miss fire.
His folks supposed be was joking as did broth
or of Mr.. Spinney who met him AS he was leaving
the house, but thinking it strange he walked
with him to Spinneys house, where Downing
went to shed near by, from which he had full
view of the door. After while Spnney and his
wife came along, when his brother cslIed to him,
telling him to look out for Downing was going to
shoot him. Instantly Downing presented the
gun aud fired, on which Mrs. Spnuey fell to the
ground corpse, one OF the buck shot having en-
tered her brain. Mr.. Spiuney was struck in the
arm by another of the shot which severed the
main artery and he came near bleeding to death
before the hemorrhage was checked
The families of both parties are highly respect
able, and the affair has created more excitement
than ever bsfore known 10 the city. Mrs
Spinncy leaves three children, and Downing has
fUAr.
About 2o'cl)ck this morning Downing was ar
rested and committed to Jail.
