Stabbing Case. On Sunday morning there was a stabbing case in town, as serious as it is unusual Mr. A. Livingston went into the Revere House Saloon late on Saturday night and found two men playing cards. He proposed to have a hand in the game, but was curtly refused. Going to another an-other table, soon after another man came in and they two commenced a game. Some time later one of the first two, namediRichard Burke, went over to the second table and proposed there to have a hand in the game. Mr. Livingston said "You spoke very cross to me a bit ago," when the other replied "If you don't like it you can make your mark." Some further words ensued and a challenge was given to fight Burke drew a pocket knife and stabbed Livingston four times, the first time in the left side of the left breast, the knife passing between the ribs and penetrating the lung; two other times in the head ; and the fourth time behind the ear, the blade breaking in the bone. The police were sent for, who came and arrested Burke on the steps of the Revere House, and had Livingston conveyed home. Burke bears the reputation of a quarrelsome bully and Livingston that of a peaceably disposed hardworking hard-working man, although not one to quietly sit down under an insult. The piece of the broken blade was subsequently subse-quently taken from his head, but his case is serious and doubts are entertained enter-tained of his recover'. We are sorry that a man of such good reputation should get into company of the kind. Yesterday Burke was taken out of the charge of the city officers on a writ o habeas corpus, and an investigation was had before Judge Strickland. The case was adjourned, after the examination examina-tion of a few witnesses, to await the result of the stabbing in the condition of the injured man. |
