between w. N. Sale and Jake Myers,
two butchers at the market house. Both
parties were summoned up TO police

fore Justice Williams. This gentleman

the city to the amour. Of $40, which
amount was promptly paid by Mr..
Myers, but afterwards voluntarily made
up and returned to him by his fellow
butchers at the market house. Mr. Sale
was, from appearances, considerably
worsted on account of the combat; one
eye WAS much swollen and the lids had
closed over the optic and \ bsndage had
been placed over it. Blue forget-me-
nots were distributed all over his phiz
and his right cheek bone stood out more
prominently than other facial features.
Mr.. Sale was not fined anything. Myers
