A MEDICAL MARTYR.
A Michigan Physician Shot for Refusing
TO Commit an Abortion.


TO Commit an Abortion. .
The Utica, Michigan correspondent of the
Detroit Free Press writes as follows: "Our
usually quiet village was the scene Of in
tense excitement last evening, owing to the
dastardly attempt to take the life of one of
our most prominent citizens. The facts are
these: About seven o'clock in the evening
DR.. William BrOwnell returned to his resi-
dence from professional visit. On driving
to his barn he met a man and woman VINO
had been waiting to see him most OF the
afternoon. The man followed him into the
barn, and asked him if he was DF.
Brownell On receiving an affirmative
answer, he told the doctor he wished TO get
some medicine to procure an abortion on
his wife, who, he stated, was with him.
The doctor politely but firmly refused to
aid them in their designs, and underworld
to persuade him from making the at
tempt, pointing out the danger TO her
life. besides the committing Of a deadtul
crime. The man, who proved to be Lewis
G. Butler, of Troy, Oakland county, then
threatened him if he did not make the pre-
scriptiOn. At this insult the doctor ordered
Butler TO leave his premises, when Butler,
quick as a FASH drew a revolver from his
side, cooked and leveled it at the doctor,
who seeing his danger, sprang forward and
clinched his would-be assassin before he
of the revolver, and then ensued desper-
ate struggle. The doctor had forced him
out of the barn and some forty feet toward
the house, when the william succeeded in
wrestling the pistol from the doctors grasp
and fired, the ball passing through the
doctors right thigh. Finding he was shot,
the doctor threw him on the ground and
succeeded in mastering him, and held HIM
until some of the neighbors, attracted by
the screams Of the children came to his
assistance.
Butler was secured, and the DOCTOR who
by this time wa nearly exhausted, carried
into his house and medical attendance
secured. The wound is an ugly one, the
ball having hit the bone and glanced off,
making ragged hole completely through
the thigh.
The report of the shooting spread through
town like wildtre, and it was with great
difficulty the excited citizens were kept
from lyuching Butler In fact, rope was
secured, and everything got ready, but
report being brought that the doctors
wound was not dangerous, wise counsel
prevailed, and the culprit handed over to
the officers. He was taken to Mount
Clemens and lodged in Jail last night The
man was total stranger to the doctor, he
never having seen HIM before.
Butler lie about twenty-One years of age,
the son of Mr.. and Mrs. Daniel Butler, re-
spected and highly esteemed citizens of
Troy.
DR.. Brownells wound is some better to-
day, and no serious result is anticipated.
Had the ball passed an inch higher up, or
on the opposite side of the bone, the wound
would have been fatal.
