Michael Roach, keeper Of low grog shop in which
two of the auarrymen were shot lone fatally, and a
woman was 20 badly beaten that % thought she viii
not recover.
II appears that the difficulty commenced on Sunday,

keeper Of another goggery adjoining, one Dan suli-
van. On Monday forenoon, Is quarrymen and labor

and the other Of the groggeres, and some
difficulty arose betweenthem and Roach.
In the afternoon about half dozen of the party Wis
tied Roacs house. and the quarrel being renewed it is
alleged that Roach ordered them of the house, but
the men refused to co. when Roach drew revolver
and fired five Shots three of which took effect The
quarrymen then made savage attack upon Roach,
using bar Of ircn an AK and other weapons mjuring
him very severely. Roach finally broke lose and
running up stairs kept the men a. bay with bis re-
yolyer there being one barrel still andischarged.
The men then made an attack upon a woman living
in tie house. named Mary Donnel striking her twice
upon the head with bar of iron, causing two. very
ugly scalp wounds, which ID is thought VIII result in
her death.
One Of the shots fred by Roach took efct on John
Devln the ball entered the eit side, and lodged in
the stomach. He was subsequently attended by Dr.
r. Chabert, who pronounced the wound fatal.
Two other shots took effect upon Thomas Deyaney,

wound, and the other cut of middle finger at tho
second Joint He was attended by Dr. Elder and II 10
