One was Charles Williams and the _ other David Butterfleld—entire strangers to each other. Sapper being served, the boarders and gueste, inclading Williams and Butterfield, repaired to the table, It so happened that they both continued at the table after the rest had withdrawn; Up to this time not a word had passed between them. Presently a gentleman connected with the house entered the supper-room, aud knowing Mr. Williams very well, asked if he desired to be served with anything more, The reply was: “No, sir; but may be my friend bere would like something.’’ It seems Butterfield took offense at the sarcasm evinced in the remark, and applied a sharp admonition to Williams, in which he hinted that he did not like to be spoken of familiarly by one so young as Mr. W. An apology was made by the fatter, but Batterfield failed to receive it in the spirit in . which it was offered. From this, curt re. torts aud sharp, harsh words wera exchangied, until floally Batterfield applied a most offensive epithet to Williams, which was in. stantly resented by aslapin the face. A brief scuffle ensued, bat the parties were separated before any serious injury was in. flicted upon either. They both repaired to . the bar-room, and shortly the difficulty was renewed, Williams, becoming very much enraged, seized a heavy wooden stool near . by and with it struck Butterfield upon the . head a crushing blow, which fractured the . frontal bove and felled him unconsciously . Emory’s crossing, and on the west by a line . to the floor. The wounded man was carried . drawn north and south with the Flumes of . up stairs, and a messenger dispatched with .
