in the Town of Warwick.

The families of Charles Ballou and

In A STATION.
John O'Kcefe Died Sud-
denly This Morning.
Found in a Weak Condition
Behind Bulldog Tavern.
The Officers Did Not Recognize His
Serious Condition.

A sudden death took place at the Second
police station shortly before o o'clock this
morning John O'Keefe, laDorer,
whose homo is on Hedley street, was
found in very weak condition behind
the Bull Dog" tavern at about 1880
o'clock this morning. He was taken to
the station and DIR. Palmer notified.
1t was evident to the officers at the
station that O'Keefe had been drinking
heavily, and was in bad shape from the
effects of liquor and the heat, but no one
thought his condition as serious as IL
proved TO be.
Capt Stevens went down TO see the
man about s 80 o'clock, and there semed to
be no change in his condition and no one
was notified outside of the station OF the
mans condition.
A short time after Capt. Stevens visit
Officer Hunt went down stairs and
found the unfortunate man just dying
and before any help could be summoned
the man was dead.
Medical Examiner Palmer arrived at
about $3.50 o'clock and after viewing the
remains and hearing statement of the
case, turned the body over TO Undertaken
Mccarthy.
O'Keefe's wife died several months ago
and since that time he seemed to have
lost all his ambition and to have been
careless In his manner of living. He was
at one time fairly prosperous and those
who knew him well regretted the change
in his manner of living, which resulted
so disastrously.

OTHER VERSION OF THE FRACAS

viii Johnson Of course tells different
story. lie says that he had started across
lots to his brothers when the long dis.
tance dispute between his father and
Ballou commenced and as the argument
grew hotter and hotter and the two men
were getting nearer, by reason of his
father going down toward the road, he
stopped TO see the outcome. His father,
however. was too quick for him and got
out onto the highway before him and the
fight was on.
William declares that as he reached the
road he saw both of the Ballous strike his
father on the head ard then they came for
him and he was knocked down by blow
on the face from Walter. His father he
said, was on his knees with one arm
stretched out in front of him and his body
was swayinR helplessly back and forth.
Then Philip came and young Ballou
attacked him. From this point in the
story both sides agree. There was a
general desire TO separate the two sons for
everyone had had enough of knOCkouts.
