night. Mr.. Miers OWNS a farm of over SOC
acres near Burney Station, and last Mon
day, on leaving for his farm, told his wife

and then fired two shots at him, one snOt
grazing his arm. Minear has recovered
from his injuries sufficiently TO leave his
room. The affair caused considerable eX-
element here owing To the prominence Of
the parties.

years and a girl of two, 10 his farm. and
