A DESPERATE LOVER.
An Attempt Mt Murder and Suicide


NASHUA N. H., June H. 1878.
At Hudson, N. H. Henry Jewett, twenty-five
years OF age, has been endeavoring to win the
hand OF Miss Ella Wood, q daughter OF Charles
Wood. Miss Wood rejected his ofIer OF marriage,
and her parents also opposed it, This morning
Jewett visited Miss Wood. pulled from his pocket q
six.shooter and aimed It at her head and fred.
The ball entered her forehead just above the eye,
and lodged under the skin. Miss Wood fell upon the
moor, but not insensble. Jewett then passed from
the house to the yard, where he met Mr.. Wood, and
endeavored TO assassinate him. Mr.. Wood caught
the enraged man by the throat warded OF the
aim OF the pistol and so, fortunately, escaped.
Jewett then put the pistol to his own ear and dis
charged 1t, the ball entering his head and causing
a wound that must prove fatal. The indications
are that II was Jewetts intention to murder the
entire family.
A FEARFUL STRUGGLE.
1t appears that the whole affair occurred IN the
sitting room OF Mr.. Charles Woods farmhouse.
After the first shot was fired Mr.. Wood grapped
with the assassin and fearful life and death
struggle ensued, in which Jewett attempted to
take Mr.. Woods life. Mr.. Wood finally overcame
Jewett and crushed him to the moor, when the lat
ter placed the pistol at his own head and dis
charged 1t. In the excitement Mr.. Wood dragged
him out OF the house by the heels and left him I'M
der an apple tree to die.
CONDITION OF THE WOUNDED PARTIES.
DIR. Smith, OF Hudson, probed Jewetts wound to
the depth OF five inches and says he cannot live.
While he had his senses he asked forgiveness for
what he had done, and in his wandering state OF
mind he called for Rev. A. w. Chaffn now OF Lynn,
Mass, saying, II leave myself in your hands.
Some years ago Jewett married Miss Smith, OF
this city, but the marriage was an unhappy one
and they soon separated.
Miss Woods wound is worse than was thought
at first II has been probed to depth OF three
inches, and although she has her senses her
cOvery Is doubtful.

A BALLOON WITHOUT GAS.
Postponement or the Ascension fro
.Ioues, Wood.

Postponement or the Ascension from
Jones' Wood.
The balloon ascension which was to have taken
place in jones' Wood yesterday afternoon turned
out to be a complete fzzle. The balloon, which
was constructed in Paris during the siege to carry
government dispatches was ready, and 80 was
Mr.. G. Barber the conductor, but the necessary
gas was not forthcoming. Seventy thousand cubic
feet Of gas were required, and the metropolitan
Gas Company did not furnish over 10000 feet.
There was considerable number OF spectators,
but at six O'Clock p. NJ. they were all told that,
owing to the failure OF the gas company to fulfil
their contract, the balloon ascension had to be
postponed till next week. The balloon Is very
large one, measuring SO feet in width, rs feet in
height 1es feet circumference. The car holds
fourteen persons. The balloon Is made entirely or
silk. Mr. Barber has made successful ascensions
in 1t from Paris Marseilles. Bordeaux, Nantes and
Rouen. He complained bitterly about the gas
company, and some OF his friends said the Super
intendent assured them that he knew alreadyin
the morning that IL would be Impossible to furnish
gas enough to initiate the balloon. The ascension
will probably take place some day next week.
