He was born i'll the County of long

came ont Of the charge alive, Mr..
REYNOLDS SAID it was hard to say, so
many who were wounded recovered
afterward. Probably there were
$50 on horseback who returned to
the English lines. The men did not
drop faster than il a general engage

the three and a half hours at ALMA
were far more bloody than the
famous ride to glory. 1t the
Alma enc could not take a step
in any direction without trca.ing

Last Sunday evening Strickland
Spell, aged about 50 years a resi-
dent of tie Fifth ward met Willie
B. Shepherd one Of his ne;ghbors, a
young man about e years old, near
Bayou Queue de Tortuej and fired
both barrels Of his gun, loaded with
buckshot at him; killing him almost
instantly. On Tuesday morning he
was arrested at Levi Harrington's
not far from this place, by Deputy
Sheriff Alex. Faulk and Constable
Olivier Landry, and brought in
town and placed in Jail. Spell
claims that he was coming in to de
liver himself up, but his horse had
given ont. This is quite probable
as he had ample time to escape if he
so desired. No satisfactory reasons
have as yet been assigned as the
cause Of the killing, and until tht
affair has been iudicially examined
we shall refrain from making AM
comments, other than we hope to se'
the laws faithfully executed, AM
Justice impartially meted out.
