Denton and Haughton Examiner, etc. — 1882-06-03 (Denton, Greater Manchester, England)

THE LATE LORD F. CAVENDISH.  The following copy of a letter, received by Mr. Glenstone from Sir Ralph Lingen, has been forwarded for publication to the London daily press  (Copy.) "Treasury, nay 9,186 Z.  "Pear Mr. Gladstone,—l have been spo' ataneously requested by the senior officers of the Treasury, and I desire myself, speaking for the entire establishment, to tender to you, as its head, the expression of our heartfelt sorrow over the death of Lord Frederick Cavendish, which he bMS rnet in the discharge of public duty, undertaken at the invitation of her Majesty's Government, under such circumstances of difficulty as render his selection the highest tntimony which could be borne to his statesmanlike capacity. Although the hopes of a great career which seemed to lie before him have been cut short, the time during which he directed and bore the fullest share in our labours, in addition to those which Parliament imposed upon him, was enough to enable on to appreciate his sagacious judgment, his quiet firmness, his unswerving honour, his consideration for every one about him, and the charm of his simple and unselfish character, which in all directions won him influence without the contests which might have sooner, served to exhibit his really commanding powers. His memory will always live in honour and affection among us, and will descend, we doubt not, fresh and unimpaired to our successors In the traditions of the Treasurv.—l remain, dear Mr. Glad:done, with the deepest sympathy and respect, faithfully yours, (Signed) R. W. Loco.. To the Right Hon. W. E. Gladstone, M.P rte.  ranticutass of a melancholy boat accident have been received from Arisaig, in the extreme west coast of Inverness-shire. Angus Gullies, aged 61, and Anne Sillies, his sister. aged 63, Duncan Gullies, and Angus Sillies, aged 21 and 17 respectively, were returning from an island with a boat load of seaware when the boat swamped. All held on by the boat till it drifted towards the rocks, when Angus the younger got on to a rock and kept hold of his father, who was quite exhausted. Duncan reached the same rock retaining hold of his aunt, who was by this time dead. The rock is nearly a mile from the shore, and when assistance arrived the old man was found to be dead, and the son Duncan was in an unconscious state, but still was clinging to the rock and retaining his hold on the body of his aunt. Angus was also in a state of insensibility, but still kept hold of the corpse of his father. All were conveyed ashore, where the two young men, after a time, recovered, but only Angus was able to give an account of the melancholy death of his father and :tent. The other son remains in a precarious state. AT the Manchester City Police-court James S. Rogers, H. Shakespeare, Wm. Evans, A. Mackenzie, and Albert Edward Beeton were charged on remand with conspiring to defraud Mrs. Elizabeth Rauh and other perms,ia out of various sums of money by means of false and fraudulent pretences. Mr. Cobbett prosecuteds on behalf of the Treasury. The evidence of Mrs. Roach and other witnesses given at the previous hearing, before all the prisoners had been arrested, was read over, and other witnesses, "clients" of the agency, were examined. Mrs. Elizabeth Wild, wife of a wire drawer at Hyde, and several relations went to the agency to inquire about some money left by certain men stunted Jackson. Mackenzie said it was all right, and they would get the money. She had various interviews with Mackenzie, Rogers, and Beebe, and gave them "powers of attorney," and paid several ISSIME/ of money, including one of £l7 10s. After some further evidence Mr. Shoe, on behalf of Shakespeare, said he was instructed, and, so far as he could see from the evidence, it was the fact that Shakesp.are had not knowingly taken part in any frauds, but had merely acted in a professional capacity as solicitor, believing the undertaking to be an honest one. The prisoners were remanded until the following day, when they were committed for trial.  A SAD CASE OF SUICIDE BY HANGING has occurred at 21, New-street, Keuningten-road, London. It seems that about a fortnight ago a youth, named Frank Wiltshire, aged 17, came to London with a view of obtaining work, and was staying with a bister at the above address. As he was not at once successful he became desponding, and several times remarked that he would rather bang himself than go back into the country again, but no particular notice was taken of the threat. On the night of the tragedy he said "Goal night" to his friends before going to his bedroom, and his manner was such as to create no suspicion; but in the morning he was discovered hanging to a rafter quite dead. The police and a doctor were called, and the latter pronounced life extinct.  A MAN NAMED O'DONNELL, found badly beaten near 'nuke a few days ago, has expired from his injuries, and he is believed to be another victim of agrarian outrage. The remains of the lad Melody, who died from shot wounds received during the recent disturbances at Milne, were buried amid public demonstrations. At the inquest subsequently held and adjourned, it was stated that the police were obliged to tire to save their lives. Numerous outrages are reported from different parts of Ireland, and special precautions have been taken by the authorities at Limerick. A EON of a farmer of Marbamehureb, Devon, has been admitted into Stratton Hospital suffering from severe injurtm inflicted upon him by an owl. A pair of Owls had made their home in an elm tree, and made raids on the farmer's chickens to supply the wants of a numerous young family. One of the farmer's sons ascended the tree and secared two of the young ones, and kept them for some days, feeding them by hand. He had one of them in his hand showing it to a friend, when one of the parent birds suddenly pounced upon him and struck Olin heavily on the heal. He dropped the fledgling and defended him with a stick, but the owl savagely renewed the attack and wounded him in one eye so seriously that the sight will be entirely destroyed. The hither, who witnessed the attack, immediately killed the two young birds, whereupon the parent owl attacked him and another of his sons, inflicting wounds in the neck of both.
