SUNDAY A DAY OF FUNERALS

brunswick is gradually recovering
from the, terrific shock of Saturdays
tragedy and the casual observer of yes
terday would never have thought that
such a bloody event had occurred
only few days before.
All of the funerals occurred in ac-
cordance with the information given
in The News of Sunday morning, eX-
cept that of Monroe Phillips, which
was to have occurred at 3 O'Clock
yesterday afternoon, and which was
postponed until 10 O'Clock this morn
ing. All of the funerals we"e marked
by large concourses of people and by
wealth of floral remembi&uees, as
suring the vital interest on the part
of the people in the city.
Ernest Mcdonald Dies.
The saddest event transpiri g was
the death Of Ernest Mcdonald which
occurred at the city hospital day
morning. Little hope had been held
out for Mr. Mcdonald all along, dlc
60 the fact that he had only recently
recovered from a severe attack Of
pneumonia He was a popular young
man, well known and of sterling char
acter; he is a son of Mr. and Mrs.
w. A. Mcdonald was engaged with
the former in the meat packing bust
ness and is survived also by "A wife,
two children and several brothers and
sisters. His untimely death caused
universal sorrow, and the funeral from
the Presbyterian church yesterday af-
ternoon was largely attended,
1t will be recalled that Mr.. Nc
Donald received several bullets, one
of which broke a leg and the other
penetrating the lungs, the latter in
nicing mortal wounds and was respon-
sible for his death
Injured improving.
Those who were seriously wounded
were A NJ Way and Gunner Tolnas.
However, all during yesterday they
were reported as being in satisfac-
tory condition, though still in danger.
Mr.. Tolnas was suffering internally,
while Mr.. Ways wounds, all of which
were confined to his face, were very
painful and more or less dangerous.
At late hour last night it was stated
at the city hospital that both of these
gentlemen were thought to be ouo OF
danger and that unless some grave
complications set in they had already
started on the road to recovery. This
will be gratifying news, for both of
them were desperately wounded.
Sigmund Levison, who is also at
the hospital, while suffering consid-
erabIe pain, is doing splendily and is
yielding to the treatment as rapidly
as could be expected. Mr.. Levison
received a portion of a load of bird
shot in his neck and face, but at no
time was his condition critical.
Jerre Wilcher, who received two or
three buckshot in the back of the
neck, was so improved yesterday that
latSHA the day he was permitted to
gs s7FS1is home in New Town, from
whence it was reported that he was
doing well.
l.. J. Leavy. Sr. who was perhaps
more seriously wounded than any of
J the others who received casual in
juries, suffered a good deal during the
day. DR. H. NJ. Branham, his physi-
\ clan, however, thinks he will recover
&speedily and that it will not be neces-
sary to remove the bullet,
Two or three of the others who were
injured are still confined to their
homes, among them Alderman A H.
Boyle and Isaac Cohen Both of these
gentlemen, however, were reported to
be improving.
