about Z o'clock. She went into the
dining-room, and laid her revolver
on the table, and, while busy at some
duty, was brutality knocked down by
a man hidden in the room, who then
sprang over her and ran into the
kitchen. The heroic young lady
quickly regained her feet, and secur-
ing her revolver fred at the robber,
who picked up small hatchet and
threw it at her, but. missed, She
again fired, and he ran through the
rear door. She followed and sent
another shot after him. The brigand
sprang over a fence and made good
his escape. Il It is thought that one
shot took effect. ~ After his e.
cape her pluck gave way and she
tainted dead away. She is now un-
