A MURDEROUS AssAULT.-One day
last week William Ash, a native of this
county, respectfully connected, about
60 years of age, tall and vigorous, and
who has recently returned from Texas,
where he has been many years, made
his appearance in Winchester, and
lodged at the hotel of Mr.. Levi Grim.
He acted strangely, but little attention
was paid to him. On last Monday he
entered the office in the B. & O. depot
building where Capt. Ed. Smith, the
agent, was talking with lady in regard
to ticket, and remarked quietly to the
Captain that he would like to have that
little business settled. Captain Smith
answered him to the effect that it was
all right, and in order to be rid of his
opportunities, stepped out of the door
on the platform. Ash followed him
out, and facing him, said: ''D--n you.
you are a dead mani" He than drew a
pistol, when Captain Smith caught his
arm and attempted to disarm him. He
was too quick for the Captain, and
changing the weapon to his left hand he
fired, but owing to the peculiar position
in which he and the Captain had come
by reason of the struggle the ball did
not strike fairly, only grazing the skin
and running around his body, lodged in
a book in his side pocket containing
papers. inhicting slight flesh wound.
The powder from the nearness Of con-
tact barnt his clothes. 1t was a very
narrow escape surely. Several persons
who We're about the depot ran to the
scene Of conflict upon hearing the re-
port Of the pistol and arresting Ash
conveyed him to jail. 1t is said by
some that Ash is a lunatic. $50, he
should be securely confined that he may
be kept out of mischief. We learn that
a commission laquirendo de lunoco
was appointed to consider his case, but
have not heard the result.-Win. Neoes.
