A DiStardly Deed.

Highland Press: John Shiefel had a
very thrilling experience last Tuesday
evening, while driving to his father in =
laws, Wencil Stakes, where he was
summoned by the death Of that gentle
man. He was driving along the road
about mile from Dry Bone about 7
o'clock in the evening, when someone
way laid him, hitting him on the head
with some kind of sharp instrument,
cutting large hole in his hat and
inficting an ugly scalp wound, knock
ing him from the buggy and rendering
him unconscious. In the fall he also
broke his collar bone. He finally re-
gained consciousness and made his way
to Dry Bone and Sohn Pierick brought
him to Highland where a physician
attended his wounds and he is now,
getting along as well as can be expected.
No clew to the distardly deed has as
yet been found.
