DRsADsUL AFFAIR AT LANcAsrERs Pa
MuapER OF A MAN, WOMAN, AND CHILp. s.
On Saturday morning, between nine aud ten
O'Clock, our citizens were alarmed by the cry
of murder on repairing 10 the spot in South
Queen street, from whence the cry originated,
we saw healthy, robust man, by the name
OF Hapgerty, apparently in state OF intoxlca-
ton or madness, and tearing about with an axe
10 his hand, crmsoned with blood. He resist
ed every effort made for his arrest, and defed
them to Law hand upon him, with his axe
raised in the air. There was no other alterna-
tive left than 10 pelt him with stones, which
was successfully carried into effect. After the
capture of Haggerty, the House was entered,
and 10. and behold the most horrible spectacle
presented itself TO view. There lay two bodies
trembling flesh, streaming blood, scattered
brains, and the walls bespallered with blood
whose vital spark had flown 10 realms above,
but few moments before. On searching the
other room, horrible TO relate, there lay an in
nocent babe, reeling in the agonies OF death,
with its brains oozlng out


This is the most unparalleled murder on re
cord, never before have we heard of murder
perpetrated with such deliberation, GOODNESS
and boldness, as was the present one. II
appeared that the murderer desired 10 kin all
around him, and, no doubt, would have per-
formed some serious feats, had not the course
been pursued as was in this case.--Ledger.
