his Wi1e, and during the alteration, which
occurred At the barn, the s,ep.mother a2-
pearcd on the scene With huge carving
knife. Sylvester drew pisp1, bis father
hand, and was ahot through the temple,
causing immediate death. Ark Irwin next
came ID for a shot, which took effect In the
right brcast, and vas thea dnIshsd by having
her throat cut With her own knIc, aud
pounding her head. The double murder COM
nitted, Sylvester gave hImaelf rp and Was
