The Kenosha telegraph. [volume] (Kenosha, Wis.) 1860-1888, 1865-12-28

Rough Playa distressing case Of unn-
territorial or thoughtless cruelty occurred in
this city tsly. As we have been informed, the
facts are as follows: A week ago on Sunday
last several children were left alone at the
house of John Murphy. The Oldest of these was
son ofMr Murphy, about ID years old. Among
the others was little girl, some four or FIVE
years old, daughter of Thomas Boyle. In the
course ofplay young Murphy put this little
girl into bag aud tied it up. Then be amused
himself by rolling and drawing her around the
floor How long he continued this fan we have
not learned, but it was at least until the child
was nearly suffocated When released she
went into spasms, fir ON which she never rallied,
though she lived along in an insensible condi-
ton, until Friday afternoon last.
we should think that such tragic ending to
what was meant for cruel sport would teach
boys to be more humane if not human, in their
play with children.
