saying, i didn't strike you very hard

fall ing to the ground dead. The playful
stroke had proved fatal, because, as is
supposed, Murphy was affected with

pathized with, and there can be nc
doubt that he suffers more than anyone
else on account of tho sad result. He is
held for examination, but it is expected
that he will be nothing hut exonerated
