Show HBcant Well, But Missed Him. Newaek, N. J February 22. A sensation was created in Murray's billiard parlor this afternoon, when Dr. W. H. Conover, a well-known well-known dentist of this city, entered carrying a double-barreled gun, and without warning fired one barrel at the head of Patrick Deary, a shoe-dealer. Conover's aim was poor and the charge hissed over Deary's head. The cause of the shooting was the seduction of Conover's daughter by Deary under the promise of marriage. According to Conover's statement, two of his daughters have been ruined by Patrick Deary and his brother Thomas. |
