last week
On Friday of last week Mr.. Peter
Andrews, of Fermanagh twp, while
leading horse to water by the halter
strap, the horse turned suddenly around
and kicked him on the forehead and
upper lip, crushing in the frontal bone,
and infiicting such injuries as to cause
almost instant death. He leaves wife
and three children to mourn his sudden
departure.
Two Tuscarora valley young men,
named respectively Hurl and Cassner,
were committed to Jail by Squire Rich
ard Doyle on the charge of having stolen
q lot of carpenter tools and a pig. The
young men were scarcely in prison on
Friday when Cassner was taken before
Squire Samuel Loudon and admitted to
bail in the sum of two hundred dollars
to answer at court.
The oldest little daughter of Rev. and
Mrs. Il. f. Ealy met with what might
prove very serious accident on Tues
day, July Goth, by accidentally stepping
with her bare foot on a sharp scythe
that was in her uncle Charles Ramsey's
hand as they were gathered around the
pump. The wound was attended to at
once by kind hands and the child's
father, who had just started for Peru
Mills was overtaken and brought back.
The child up to this time of writing was
getting along favorably.
On, Thursday of last week dispute
arose between Mr.. James COder, of Aca-
demia and Mr.. Mcnamara, wool
merchant of Patterson, in regard to the
kicking of dog, which resulted in Nc
Namara striking Mr.. c. over the fore
head and face with club breaking the
frontal bone and inflcting an ugly cut
on the left cheek bone. DR.. j. M. Bra
zee was summoned and administered to
the wants of the injured man. McNam-
ara was arrested and placed under bail
to await the result of Coder's injuties,
which are very dangerous, and may
yet prove fatal
Thieves entered the clothing store of
ID. w. Harley, in this place, on last
Thursday night. The entrance to the
room was made by pryng open the
front door, or by prying open one of the
double front doors. chisel taken
form the blacksmith shop of VIM. Ellis
on Water street was inserted between
the two doors, and the leverage thus
secured was sufficient to break the cast
metal hasp, into which the bolt of the
lock had been turned when Mr. Harley
retired for the night. The thieves in the
store threw the clothing about on the
counters, as if searching for some par
ticular kind of suits. A considerable
quantity of burnt paper lay about on the
floor behind the counters, and from the
appearance of the ashes and their loca-
tion near inhamable stuff the wonder is
that the house was not set on fire, by
which act thdsthieves would have been
guilty of the double crime of robbery
and arson. From the amount of paper
ashes on the floor the light must have
been considerable, and the wonder is
that it did not attract attention on the
street. 1t is conjectured by some people
that probably number of thieves were
engaged in the work, and that some
stood away up and down the street to
signal the approach of persons travel
ing at night, when the light could have
been put out. Two chisels are missing
from the Ellis blacksmith shop; the
one was found at Harley's store door;
the point of the other was found at the
same place, but the blade and handle
were no where to be found. Goats,
pants, shoes, hats and neck-ties We're
stolen.-M Mi6lintotCB Sentinel.
