A terrible tragedy, ending 10 murder

the death Of Pat Doyle, At the hands of "m.

drunk and commenced beating his wife.
who ran screaming into the street, and
attracted the attention of this negro, named
Cosslsy, said to be her paramour, who called
to Doyle to stop beating the woman, and on
his refusing, shot him through the lungs.
Doyle died in few minutes, and Costley
has been arrested. Considerable excitement
exists in Pekin among the Irish.
