ToWN AND COUNTY MATTERS.

Uo,rc1Dr.-Dennis Carroll, an old resident of
xyooverville. and proprietor of Democratic
Y1ouv Main st., was killed about II o'clock on
Wednesday night, by man named John Bailey,
from Mendocino county. who arrived here few
aovs aoo. A Coroner's inquest was held on
Thursday morning, and the jury returned a yer
5ict 10 the effect " that Dennis Carroll came TO
his death from q wound in the left breast, re-
ceived at the hands of one Bailey, on the night
of May 2lst, 1867"
From what we can gather from portion of
the evidence given on the examination the diff
Gully between the parties originated from some
alleged overt act on the part of Bailey that
words and blows followed, both falling to the
floor. and that while IN that position, Carroll
ceiyed the mortal wound. He never spoke af-
terwards the knife entering his heart. Bailey
escaped from the house, but was taken next NOR
ming near Gray residence on East Weaver creek,
Inv officer Prater and others. The examination
before Justice Moloney commenced on Wednes-
day afternoon, and was not concluded at the
time of going to press. There is little doubt
that he will be bound over to await the action of
the Grand Jury.
MFR. Carroll's sad and untimely death is gener-
nlly lamented by our citizens, and wife and babe
are left to mourn the husband and father. His
funeral will take place at 2 o'clock this (Friday>
afternoon.
