tally Beaten on me Heat by stephen TerraH
AS the result of a quarrel in the
saloon of Will Collins, corner of
High and Chestnut streets, last
Saturday morning between 10 and IL
o'clock, John Quirk, young man
of 80, is in his grave. and Stephen
Terrill, another young man, is in a
murderer's cell at Dodgeyille.
The facts of the case, as found by
a jury, are about as follows: Terrill
provoked a quarrel with young
man named Clark, who is physically
much the inferior of the two, and
would have beaten him severely but
for the interference of Quirk and
others who We're present. This in
reference seems to have enraged
Terrill, who, after some time, in
which ne was seen to take a pistol
from his pants pocket and put it in
his coat pocket, called to Quirk, who
was seated by the stove, demanding
why he interfered, Rising, Quirk re-
piled that he could not see a small
man or boy abused by larger one
notwithstanding. Terrill then said
it would be more equal between him
and Quirk. This led to high wosds
and soon to blows. Quirk striking

ing, and continued firing rapidly
until and after Quirk sank to the
floor, practically dead; when the in
furiated Terrill proceeded to savage
ly beat his unconscious victim on
the head with the empty revolver.
Qujrk was unarmed, and spoke no
word during the fight. Five bullet
holes were found in him. Two in
the breast, two in the head and one
in the hand. The first shots are sup
posed to be those in the body, either
of which would have killed.
Terrill was arrested at once, had
an examination before Justice White,
bound over to the circuit court for
trial, and Immediately conveyed to
the county Jail at Dodgeville. He is
about "a years old; was raised on a
form near this city, and came with
his parents to reside In town a few
years ago. He was regarded as a
dangerous man when drinking, to
which he was addicted. His father,
Stephen D. Terrill, whe died a year
or two ago, was respected as one Of
our best citizens.
The murdered young man spent
most Of his boyhood days in Mineral
Point, but had travelled a great deal,
visiting much Of this country aud
Australia. lie had been at home
but a few weeks, having come with
an invalid sister to wb ON he was
much devoted, from Chicago for
a visit. He was quite popular, es-
pecially among young men, genial
and entertaining; but little dis
posed to quarrel, though naturally ad-
venturous. For some time he had
resided in Chicago, and was a mem
ber Of a X. =. lodge of that city.
The funeral, which took place on
Monday, was largely attended by
friends Of the deceased and sympa-
thizers with the bereaved mother,
sister and brothers, to whom his
cruel death is a crushing blow.
