w He Chopped up the Sheriff’s Gon- l Rare Chance l stable. On Saturday Nov. 15, Sheriff Carney . .. Hurlqu out from Manitowaning with constable-t Green and McCoy tor th- tn'n. of S. Murray, having a writ (- l'_;,-"\.'Illiellt which it was his intention to s-‘c executed. The writ. arose out 0! an ntt~:tti.~fied mortgage and the obsti- nate refusal on the part of Murray to \LH:IIC the premises. He even went St, in as to threatert to shoot or chop up and bunt any man who attempted to pttt hitn off. When the sheriff and the wit-tables arriVed at Murray's house, which is only a. tniserable log cabin with a hole in the roof to let tlte smoke on'. they found him at. hntne and were invited to enter. Carney had served the writ and they were all standine around the fire, when )Ittrray suddenly picked up art axe which he had leaning against the wall, and without. any warn- in: made a wipe at the sheriffs head, which he narrowly missed. Carney lhuk the hint. attd backed out. of the door with a celerity tltat made the door- trante smoke, followed by Green, whose verdancy is all in his natne. Murray then turned his attention to McCoy. ’l'wiee ltc struck at him, cutting ltis t-aat on the breast and sleeve but mis-_ :~in_-.." the flesh. McCoy saw that. prompt action was his only chance, and kicking over the lantern went. for Murray in the dark. He caught Murray around the, eltestjust as he swung up the axe for another blow, artd the two men caute to the ground together; but as they fell the axe came down on McCoy’s back with terrific lorce, cutting through ltis overcoat, his body coat, tltc fulled clotlt vest, severing one of his ribs and pene- trating into the lung,' bencatlt. But McCoy hung to his man until the other two got the. handcuffs on him, then he walked to the ‘nearcst neighbor's and, getting a bugg ', drove to Manitowaning. At blanitowauingr he got out. of the buggy and walked to his house. Once there, however, the doctor forbade all movement, and at last aecottnts his condition was most critical. It appears that all this time McCoy had a revolver in his pocket but refrained froru using it, thus possibly sacrificing his life to seruples which the man on behalf of whom they were exercised certainly did not deserve.â€"-Ex. â€"â€"â€"vâ€"-â€"â€"â€"-â€". .0 oâ€"-â€"- â€"- -â€" Didn’t Catch Him.
