The Fremont County record. [volume] (Canon City, Colo.) 1877-18??, 1882-01-14

On Wednesday evening at the close
of the Parlor Orchestra ball most
wanton and unprovokcd assault was
made upon Mr.. c. E. Hunter, of the
Gazette. by Louis Hcmmcrle, who
struck Mr.. Hunter over the eye and
cut him severely. That there was
$40 reason to provoke such an assault
is shown by the fact that he at once
expressed regret and his willingness
to apologize. Mr.. Hunter is a quiet,
respectable young man and always
conducts himself in a gentlemanly v
manner. The affair is the more to be
dcplored from the fact that Mr..
Hunter is recent acquisition to
Caiion City society. Mr.. Fritz Ehr-
mann deserves credit for the manner
in which he quietcd Mr.. Hemmerle.
Only one blow was struck, and that
without word of warning, and not
a word of swearing or bad language
was used. Tho whole affair seems
to have been caused by misunder-
standing and as it is Mr.. Hemmerle's
first trouble at a public ball it is TO
be hoped it will be the last.
