Gold Hill daily news. [volume] (Gold Hill, N.T. [Nev.]) 1863-1882, 1871-08-07

James Kelly, OF the firm Of Kelly &
Co., the we'll known wholesale liquor
dealers and soda manufacturers at Vir-
ginia, was assaulted by John Leary, q
miner, at the Vesey House, Main
street, Gold Hill, and very badly in
jured. The following, as near as we
can learn, are the particulars. Kelly
was down from Virginia with his
wagon, delivering bottled soda to his
regular customers, and about 8 o'clock
A. N. went into the bar-room of the
Vesey House and left a box. Leary
was there, considerably under the in
fluence of liquor, having been drink
ing freely since the evening before,
and seeing Kelly, he said to
him What are you doing down
here you son Of a bitch" Kelly re-
piled, II have nothing to do with you.
I don't know you" Leary, however,
persisted in abusing him and again
called him a son Of a bitch. At this
Kelly struck him, knocking him down
and kicked him, and would doubtless
have administered further punishment
had he not been taken away BY others
in the room. Kelly then drove down
to lower Gold Hill, and about l o'clock
on his return he stepped into the bar
room Of the Vesey House again, apollo
giving for the difficulty Of few hours
| previously. He and others were at the
bar taking a drink, when Leary made
his appearance and began abusing
Kelly again. Kelly, however, tried to
avoid him, saying as before that he did
not know him and would have nothing
to do with him. He turned to leave,
when Leary, watching his opportunity,
struck him from behind with his fist or
something else, hitting him about the
right ear and Telling him to the floor In
sensible, and kicking him two or three
times after he was down or till he was
seized by the other men present. Leary
then left through the rear Of the hotel,
and was subsequently, arrested by
Town Marshal Harkin. Kelly was In
sensible for ten or fifteen minutes, DR..
Hall attending him, but finally re-
| covered sufficiently In the course Of
an hour or so to try and get back
to Virginia In his wagon, seated be-
side the driver. At the upper end Of
Main street, however, opposite Lib
erty Engine house, finding himself
failing, he attempted to get out, and
fell In the street beside the wagon.
He was picked up insensible and taken
into q saloon neal by, where he still
remained up TO the latest accounts,
resting easily yet apparently stupefed
and suffering from the effect Of the
terrible blow given him. Leary was
taken before Justice Putnam, who de-
| cided that he should be held till the
result of Kelly's injuries should be
better known. He was accordingly
committed to the calaboose, where he
now remains.

| He was tending q windlass at q wtnze,
when one Of the men working at the
bottom Of the winze happened to pull
suddenly down on the rope, causing
the windlass to whirl around. Allen
not being on his guard the swiftly re-
volvlng crank struck him on the fore
head Just over his right eye, stunning
him somewhat, and i~nfllcting quite a
severe injury. For several hours after

cussion Of the brain, for he was con-
stantly imagining himself 70 be falling

attended him and he Is now In q fair
way to soon recover.
