each vying with the rest apparently
to see who could discharge the greater
number of shots in the shortest time.
At first the weapons were loaded with
ball, but after one or two narrow es-
capes, the precaution was taken to SUBJ
stitute blank cartridges, and the ball
went merrily on. For nearly two hours
this salute to the newborn year was
continued. Sleep within a quarter Of
a mile of the disturbed district was out

Main street were made targets for the
shooters, and most of them were snuffed
out as sacrifice to the new year. For
tunate it was that no personal injurie:
were inflicted during the reign of this
dangerous pastime.
