 Editor of The Press Will you fkindly publish in the next issue ;oi The Press truthful account of the sheep slaughter referred to in last week s paper by your Wilmington cor respondent, and is as follows: George E. Sparrow,H ,Hwhos lives near the Hill, notified the selsct,neh that he had found two of his sheep badly bitten by a dog or dogs, and ~thatssshe was hold ing deg. for Identification that he had seangbt asin e the act. T. J. Older shaWs the third selectman, and W. H. Hall swept to the scene of action and found the sheep as stated, also my dog
 (which, by the way, is only about q year old chained up. The matter was talked over with the owner of the sheep and the damage estimated at ten dollars. Twas then notified and went up and saw MT. Sparrow, and after some argument succeeded in settling with him for nine dollafs, which money pafds' I directed that my dog be killed, which was done. What wAs done with the mutton I. cannot positively say, but have reason to think was sold for good price. In so far as the excitement went, your humble servant did not see any.
