murder, occurred there on Tuesday
night. John Ward, farmer from
near Gagetown, had been employed
at Alpena for some time, and on Mon
day night started for home in compa-
ny with one Chas. Elliott, a sailor
from Bay City. They reached Vas
sar Tuesday afternoon, and together
spent the time in drinking until even
ing, when Elliott decoyed Ward into
a back street, and there dealt several
blows over his head with some weapon
cutting it in frightful manner. This
done, Elliott relieved his victim of

revolver, and made his escape to the
Michigan Central depot, where he was
shortly arrested by Marshal Burgess,
ironed and jailed.-Bay City Call,
