Special to the KEsNEBEc JOURNAL
BowDolNnAM, Aug. Il,-Sheriff c. IL,
Hodges of Richmond came to- town early
this forenoon to arrest SANITY Pratt, Jr,. of
East Bowdoinhsm. for assault with inten-
ton to kill Mr. Cyrus NJ, Thompson Of
this village. We have been informed in
regard to this matter as follows:
Yesterday afternoon Mr.. Thompson, who
has been carr, ing on the Ash business for
some time past, called at Mr.. Pratts
fathers aud made the usual inquiry. If
they wished to be supplied occasionally.
Youog Mr.. Pratt who Was present.
knocked Mr.. Thompson down and kicked
him when down, iuiiciiug severe ipj uries.
breaking his nose and cutting his face, all
without provocstion. Pending the arrest
the matte, has received the usual public
comment, and the general impression has
been evinced that Mr.. Thompson, who is
schpo sledged to be a quiet, upright, in-
offen.ive man, giving his business the
strictest at, ntion, had bean treated in IA
outrageous manner, aud that the defendant
ought to be dealt with strictly accord
ing to law. Mr.. Mi,hsel Reagan, =
TtrlltNt VI tHt NlllhRSy stebitu
to be Of this number, and learning after
the arrest that compromise was being
affected by paying Mr. Thompson q stiPu-
lated sum for damages, made his way into
Judge l.. NJ. Fulton's office, where and be-
fore whom the examination was to take
plsce, and conmeI ed proceedings accord
ing to his own judicial ideas by Furnishing
the prisoner IN r.gular pugilistic style,
protect his prisoner by securing second,
hut the latter left his gsfn ents in true
Joseph style, and msde his way to the ST. eet
by strides, the length of which was never
eQus,led hereaboutq. We understand that
bonds are required for Mr.. Pratt, the sb-
sence of which. If continued, will keep him
un Ter charge Of Sheriff Hodges. The fl Id
