Paul returned the FIRE, and each hred six
shots, and then closed and rss their
knives. They were mortsily wounded.
Paul started for the front door and went
out; was followed asd breught back and
died in twenty minutes. He ~ns shot in
the upper part of the breast and cut sever
times in the abdomrn.
Robert, when Paul left the room, follow

fell, struck the wall, and skinned his face.
Hs was carried 10 temporary couch, and
lay iusensible nearly three hours, when he
also died. He was shot through the lief,

Other pressing duties have, until now
prevented Us giving it that attentive con

improvement in the business Of the road
during the past year to the improved con

and anticipates an increase OF business
from the completion Of the Rockville ex-
tension OF the Evansville s. Cfawfordsvills

The President concludes his report by
commanding the officers and employees Of
the road for the fsithfulness add diligence
With which they have discharged their va

pressing his qualification that the trsin.
