A cold-blooded murder was committed
near the Prairie House 10 our city, on
Thursday evening, the 18th. 1t appears in
evidence before the Coroner's jury, that two
brothers, Patrick and Michael Maher, had
been on drunken spree throughout the
day, and bad attempted to murder man
with whom they had some difficulty. They
were prevented by the interference Of several
men, among them Patrick Mcclure.
After tins, McGuffe came down into the
city, and upon his return home, about p.
NJ, in passing the residence Of the Mahar's,
he was invited into the house and set upon
with an axe and club, and murdered by the
two Mahars. His body was then hid in q
cellar, where it remained till midnight, when
it was carried into the street, where it was
found Friday morning. The Mahars have
been tried and held for their appearance at
Court, when, it is hoped, they will be sen
fenced to be hung -W,nona Democrat.
