Leander S. Keyse pastor of the English Lutheran church,
Canal Dover, and that met him on his ground;
and the other with Rev. - NcVey a Campbelite
preacher with church, whom l McConnelsvle,
also on his ground.
Our readers will probably recall the fact that my first
letter about the Canal Dover debate, which written
Marietta and in hurry, l made a casual reference
matter which promised discuss in a later letter. Sub
sequent events, of which information me- had
caused say about it, but later developments
demand that should discuss it. for myself alone
but for my friends.
Upon the opening night of the Canal Dover debate,
Rev. - Kennedy pastor of the Methodist Episcopal
church, at Canal Dover the presiding moderator, and
he present in the interest of Mr. Keyer 1t became
his duty to make the opening statement. He did and
announced the subject under discussion, the and
conditions of the During his preliminary remarks
he referred to the fact that admission fee being
charged for the debate, and while l may remember
his precise words language used, it in substance,

There has been criticism about the charge being
made for admission fee but l wish say that the

absolutely nothing to do with it, The Committees had

tai expenses, and without regard for the speakers the
committees decided upon making the charge. 1 say this
in justice to the speakers"
Following this DIR. Keyser introduced, and in his
predatory remarks he only confirmed what Mr.. Ken

TWO MASKED MEN
Attacked Samuel Diamond in His Barn
Three Shots Fired.

Samuel Diamond of Woodstock ave-
nue., a peddler, and with store on
Providence street, came into police
headquarters Monday and informed
Captain Murray that he had been shot
at and an attempt made to rob him in
his barn late Saturday night.
Diamond says that just before the
incident referred to he had come into
his barn with his team, after deliver
ing an order to a house in the Mono
hansett village. He went upstairs to
throw down some feed for his horse,
and when he came down, carrying a
lantern, he was. confronted by a man
with levelled revolved, and was or
dered to throw IN his hands. The
man was masked. and Diamond says
he thought it was a joke and laughed
a little. The order to throw up his
hands was repeated. but not loudly, as
the man evidently feared that he would
be heard by some chance passerby.
At this point Diamond made a swing
at the fellow with his lantern. The
man lodged Clearly, but out of the
darkness of the barn sprang another
masked man, and Diamond saw the
CLINT of another gun. In the mixup
that followed three shots were fired at
Diamond, but he escaped without In
jury.
Officer Cordier, on duty in the north
end Of the city, heard the shots at
about the time Diamond says he was
fired at. This is the second attempt to
hold UP peddler that has come to the
knowledge of the police within a few
weeks. Both attempts have been made
IN the same section of the city. The
highYaymen failed to get anything in
either instance.
