He had had a difficulty with a couple of roughs, when one of them, after following him a short distance, stabbed and instantly killed him. One of the roughs was killed by the policemen who attempted to arrest them. Whisky was the cause of these two little affiars. Oh, of course there is no great harm in dealing out damnation to make fools and brutes of men.
