OF"LTrTLE BARSEY, the man who was
killed in an encounter with 4 brother
gambler in Virginia on Saturday night
We have picked up some few facts, as
follows: Kcnnev, the deceased, used to
be a stage driver in the employ Of the
California Stage Company and was re-
earded as quite an expert Jehu. Some
years since, after be had adopted the
profession of gambler, he went to
Idaho and while there was imposed upon
by bully of fellow named Ryan. He
killed this man, in a restaurant, across
table, in desperate hand to hand pistol
fight The circumstances were in Bar
ney's favor, and he was acquitted. Be-
fore this pistol rencounter he had never
had any serious troubles, and was very
peaceful, quiet, well-dispossd man. We
are told further. that his troubles with
Matt Redding (the man who killed him)
began several years ago in San Francisco,
when he and Redding were partners.
Some business disagreements arose be-
tween them. 1t seems to be the general
verdict of the sporting fraternity that
Barney was gentlemanlike person when
not excited by drink, but who, when
drinking heavily was a very dangerous
man. He was one of the pair of fool
hardy fellows who, out of sheer wanton-
ness, undertook, a few months since,
while on their way to Carson in buggy,
and when near the Halfway House, be-
tween here and Virginia City, to settle
trivial dispute by appealing to their pis-
tolls. Matt Redding, kenneys slayer,
now a partner with Buckner in the bust
ness of dealing faro in Virginia. was
formerly boatmau in San Francisco, |
and as such has probably seen some hard |
knocks and rough usage. We judge, |
however, that he was compelled to take |
the extreme measures which he did take
in defending himself against his sssail-
ant.
