At the Temple City, in the still hour of midnight, on the 8ih day of July 1891, near the Board of Trade Saloon an awful scene of tragedy took place between Murdock, the Champion base ball player of San Pete county, and the Par Tender of the Hoard of Trade Saloon. It seems that the two young men had been having some words together and in fact the one had threathened the other with something worse than a mere knock down. Both had been drinking and after some passing remarks re-marks between them, Mr. Par Tender getting into a rage over some remarks re-marks made by Mr. Murdock took the dangerous step of drawing his gun and firing m Murdock taking effect on the thighbone. At which Mr. Murdock dr w his pistol and shot a fatal wound in the Bar Tender's Ten-der's stomach. The occurance is a sad one and will result in a great deal of trouble. More will be said in our next issue as we learn of the full particulars. |
