J. G.. Davison's friends gave him
very pleasant surprise recently in
the shape of a pound party. They
left good many useful articles and
Sc in money. Mr.. Dawson got hurt
the first of the summer and has not
been able to work since.
A disag1eeable affair occurred here
on Wednesday night last. Two
roughs by the name of Dufer who
were the worse for liquor, went into
the hotel of A. G. Austin and began
| making disturbance. Mr.. Austin Or
| dered them to leave the house, when
scrimmage occurred i'll which the
| DIFFERS used steele knuckles and a
knife, badly bruising Mr.. Austin
about the head-.and shoulders. The
assailants fled across the Line, but
were arrested at Mansonville and had
their trial at that place on Friday.
We have not learned the result. The
DIFFERS are a nuisance any where and
their attack on Mr.. Austin was bru-
tai and cowardly. He is a peacable
man and keeps a respectable hotel.
Since the above was written we learn
that the Buffers, Aaron and Horace
have been taken to Irasburgh Jail.
