WAYSEsHuRG, Pa, September 6,-TO
day the tCts Of terrible tragedy reach
this place, which was enacted in Jackson
township, this county, near SIt. Zion
Church, Saturday night.
From the best information received we
gather the following, which Is reliable: A
harvest home was given Saturday ut the
church named by several Sabbath schools
ot that township, which brought together
q large mum Der OF persons, among whom
was Leonard Duvall; aged about twenty
Two year, who was under the influence Of
liquor. Duringthe dayhe became engaged
in an alteration with EIyce Hughes, but
the men were separated before much dam
age was done. "
This was believed to be the end Of the
trouble, but 1t was not 80, The blind fam.
lly gave concert in the church thai night
and the parties remained for II, On re-.
turning home Duyall wanted 10 Rpht
Hughes again, and while they were quar-.
relIlng Harvey Hughes, q brother Of the
one engaged in the trouble, stepped for
ward and struck Duyall u fearful blow on
the lower part Of the back Of the head With
large stone. The blow was a terrible one,
as i made fearful gosh in the head and
disloCated DuyalPs neck, 1t Is said by
those present that the unfortunate man
died Instantly without a struggle. On Sun.
day Squire Grimes held an Inquest, and
the jury returned u verdict that Leonard
Dnyall came to his death from the force Of
a blow administered by Harvey Hughes,
Dnrlngthe progress oithe inquest Hughes
made his exit from the scene, and Il ap.
pears, has made good his escape. Con.
stable Thomas, Of this town, returned from
tho scene yesterday without having any
clue to the whereabouts Of the murderer.
Saturday two young men Of this place
concluded to have some sport at the ex.
pense OF a boy from the country. One Of
hem figured al the town police, and pro-
'Oe'led 10 arrest the country boy for some
otfense, but before they had rot.
ten through with their sport, they were
themselves arrested by the righttul officer,
md taken before the Mayor, who fined
hem 81 and costs for their bit Of fun.

moral effect upon him and he would com.
