the witnesses in the case against Rhody
Kennedy were G. A. Nelson, J. G. Kelly,
l.. and w. s. Turks. Dan McDonough,
Chas Moore, VIM. Bracebr1dge and Ole

Two weeks ago we made mention of
the arrest of Dan McDonough on 8
charge Of assault and battery preferred
against him by Rhody Kennedy. The
case was brought before Justice Durfee
who, upon hearing the evidence, dis
charged the prisoner. Immediately upon
the dismissal of the case Mr.. McDonough
had a warrant issued Tor the: arrest of
Kennedy On a charge Of assault with
intent to kill. When the prisoner was
brought before Justice Durfee for q
bearing he demanded change Of venue
which was granted, and the case was
Tx IN beforeJustice Olson, Alters hear
ing which lasted two days Justice Olson,
decided that tho evidence wasn't suf-
ficient to warrant him.1n binding Ken
nedy over to the district court Bo he
dismissed the case. This doesn't end
the case hewever. ,McDonough is deter.
mined that Kennedy shall be taken care
OF and with that end in view he left for
Two Harbors Tuesday afternoon. If the
Two Harbors authorities will do nothing
about it he will take the case before the
Duluth courts and If they refuse to take
cognizance OF it he will refer the matter
to the attorney general.
Miss Andrews, a woman homesteader;
died suddenly on Thursday of last week
while On Der way from her homestead to-
Pork Bay. In company with Mrs. Crow
ley, who keeps stopping place at Pork
Bay, and four gentlemen she had
walked about sixteen miles to what Is
known as the "seven mile hill,'' where
the party stopped to make tea. Miss
Andrews appeared to be in excellent
health aud spirits and one OF the men
remarked that she could stand the walk
better than the men could. After hav-
ing lunch the men went on ahead, so
as to hail the Dixon if she came along,
and loft the ladies to follow at their
leisure. The men had been at the shore
but short time when Mrs. Crowley ar
rived alono and informed them that her
companion had fallen ill by the roadside.
Mrs. Crowley provided the men with food
and nourishment and sent them back
to where Miss Andrews lay at the point
Of death. The party built fire and
made her as comfortable a. poseiblenntil
she died. Her remains were taken to
Pork Bay and were placed in settlers
shack to await the arrival Of her relatives.
Her home was in Marinette, Wis.,, from
which place her brother arrived Sunday
to take charge of her remains. Mr.sAn-
drews said that for years his sister had
been afflicted with heart trouble and that
her death was probably caused by over.
