Lock, in the upper part OF town, by John She'd, who
stabbed to the heart young man called Rams
Bowers She'd, it appears, had heard that Bowers
had been circulating some report about him. of
which Bowers, when confronted by Shield, protes-
ted his innocence. But Shield was inexorable and
and without changing many words plunged a long
belt knife to Bowers heart. DR.. Leach was called
but the wound was fatal and he died in twenty
minutes. A cut was found in the back of Bow
crs head. She'd is said to be dangerous and i'll
tempered man. lie gave Limselfup to the Police
and IS at the time Of writing in the Lookup await
ing a hearing before Justice.
As we go to press, Dr. Underwood, who made
the examination for the Coroner, informs us that
the knife entered the left side, between the fourth
and fifth ribs, driving deeply into the heart The
report of the Coroners jury in accordance with
the facts stated, and the crime pronounced volun-
tary manslaughter for there is no doubt but that
SHED pursued young Bowers with the intention of
killing him, and carried the knife ON this occa-
