From Sheriff j. Is. Fitch who re-
turned from Deeth this morning, also
from Joseph Cotton who arrived upon
the scence shortly after the fatal shoot.
ing at Deeth Monday, We obtain the
following corrOborltivc facts with regard
to the killing OF Russell and the causes
leading to the tragedy, a brief account
of which we published yesterday:
The Mccoy family resides a few
miles from Deeth, on a ranch, and
Tucker Russell, the deceased, has been
employed by f.. II. Griswuid upon his
ranch in Star valley. Russell seems to
have become infatuated with n daugh-
ter OF Mccoy, a younggirl only Ia years
OF age, and insisted upon paying her
his attentions, TO which the family OBJ
jected; the father having forbidden
him TO again enter the house. During
the absence Of Mccoy and his son Hen
~, a young man. about 90 years OF age,
Mt Wells, Monday. Russell came to the
house of n relative Of the family a few
miles distant, where tho girl was tempo.
rarity stopping while tho men were away,
and after making himself obnoxious for a
short time was by the women persuaded
to leave, and he retired to some willows
near by. As Mccoy and his son ap-
pronched, Russell advanced to the rvad,
and upon being accostod by Henry Nc
Coy. suddenly drew n pistol nd fired
Mt him but missed his mark. Young
Mccoy, who was also armed imme-
diately returned The fire, which was
kept up by both parties until each had
fired three shots, and Russell had fallen
from the mule he was riding. to the
ground, and called to Mccoy for water,
which the latter rode some distance to
procure. and brought in his hat. 1t
was then found that Russell had been
hit in the side and abdomen, three
shots having taken effect, and that tho
horse that Mccoy was riding was slight
ly wounded. A wagon was procured rs
soon IA possible and tho wounded man
taken to Doeth, where he arrived at 2
O'Clock yesterday morning, and died
three hours after.
At tho examination Of Mccoy before q
magistrate yesterday, the testimony ad.
duced from some half dozen witnesses
was similar 10 the above, aud the pris-
oner was released from custody, on tho
ground that tho homicide Was perfectly
justifablc. After tho inquest. tho body
Of tho deceased was buried at Deeth.
We learn that Russell was q native
Of Racket River, ST. Lawrence county,
Mass, and that at the time OF his death
no was nbout u years OF age.

The train from the East this morning
brought the news Of a fatal shooting
which took place at Deeth, n few miles
east of this place upon the railroad,
last night. The facts connected with
the tragedy are, SO far as We have been
able to gather them, about as follows:
4 young man named Tucker Russell,
bad, 1t appears, been paying his adj
dresses to the daughter OF u resident Of
Deeth, named Mccoy. and whether b.
previous arrangement with the girl, or
not, W. could not learn, Russell went
last evening to the house of the girls
parents with the intention OF taking her
from her home to marry her. 1t seems
that Eusscll's intentions were known
to the family, rs upon his approaching
the house, a brother OF the gIrl came
out and ONE high words cusued be.

proposed action. in tho midst

latter replied with two shots, 10Th TAX

body. from tie effects of which he died
m hour or two afterwards. These are
the pnrported facts in relation 10 the
affair. but our sources OF information
have possessed a meager knowledge OF
the particulars, Gad the above may vary
materially from tho reHl facts when
they shall have been reported in full.
W. learn That the dying statement Of
Russull was taken in writing by ex-
dent Of Deeth.
