A Tragedy at Goderich.
0118 of the most lamentable trage
dies that have ever occurred in the
Huroa district took place here on
Thursday. For some time past Don-
ald McKinnon, a fisherman, a,nd hie
wife Rachel have not been living ami-
cably together.. She was alleged to be
jealous of hint. This afternoon the
quarrel culminated mime the report of
a revolyer was heard by those living
in thevicinity of Warren .street' sim-
ultaneously with cries of "Murder!
Help!" in a womon's voice. A son of
Capt. Baxter's was first oe the scene
and found Mrs. Mailmen lying in the
stable, a short distance from the house,
in a semi nude ectindition, with a but -
let wound in her breast immediately
bedew the heart., Donald Melainnon,
the husband, also turned tip about the
same tirno, and stated that his wife had
shot herself with his pistol. TW
wounded woman was at once taken to
the mouse, and Ined.cal aid summoned,
Shortly afterwards- it was discovered
that Donald McKinnon also was shot,

him to make a true statement of how
the shooth ;se occurred, and the follow
ing is the deposition. "I declare eity
wife shot herself in the barn with my,
revolver, shot 01100 and was taken out
by some person, I cannot say who,
Afterwards 1 found my revolver lying
in tyle hay, and lay down and shot my-
self, alter which I went into the house
to my wife, who was lying in bed, and
wanted to get into bed, but she would
not let me. I then removed my pants
and came upstairs aud went to bed..
This I solemnly swear to be the true
and correct way in which this tragedy
has taken place, this 1.5th day of Janu-
ary, 1891, to which 1 here sign my
name.
"DoeteLD MCKINNON,"
The deposition of McKinnon differs
materially from that of his wife as to
the shooting and the immediate pro-
ceedings that led up to it. Mrs. McKin.
non's statement is as Follows: He says
1 shot myself, which is not true 1
will tell the whole tiuth regarding it.
Last night he proposed that we should
retire to bed and he *Old bring the
pistol, and we should each be shot. He
said he was tired of life, and people
were talking about him and it would
be better to die. I told him if he was
going to die to shoot me first, so I
would not see him die. Finally I. dis
suaded him ,from his intention, of us
tug the pistol while in bed, but he did
not rest easily during the night. In
the morning after breakfast he went
up town and I got htnatceorder teegoetne,..
les. 1 then did the washing and,
cooked the dinner. When, he returned
at dinner time he brought a bottle of
whisky with him and asked me to ave
•some. I refused that time and told
him to wait. , After dinner 1 was
changing my clothes after doing the
washing, and bad. on one of his guern-
seys, which I was preparing to remove
to put on my own inside garments. He
asked'me for the pistol, and threatened
to break every thing in the house if
did not get it for him, I told him I
did not know where it was and he
threatened me, 1 ran out of the house
over to the stable at the end of the lot,
just as I was, and tried to cover my-
self from him by putting seine hay ott-
er me. He followed me, and opeeing
out my loose garments, fired the Segel.
and the bullet steuck me. Then I
called for assistance and he went
away. A son of Capt. Baxter's • was
the first I noticed to respond to my
call, and then Cnpt. Baxter.; and my
brother Norman and others came
along. They brought me to the house.
Dan McKinnon also came up. Ile had
not shot himself then. He did ee after -

said she bad been told stories by some
of the neighbors against her husband's
feithfulffiess, but added: "I didnot
think the stories of great account, and
at any rate I aid not shoot him." Cpn•
tinning, she said that McKinnon had

FIRE RECORD.
A DISASTROUS.. FIRE
broke est iu Messrs. Weir and Weie's
flax mill, St. Marys, at about 1.30
o'clock this afternoon. It was first dis-
eovered in the roof adjoining the chin -
nest, but spread very rapidly. The fire
brigade responded promptly to the a-
larm; and succeeded in preventing. the
flames„from spreading to the immense
,stacks of flax near by. The, north end
of the building, Which was stone, and
in which wss located the engine.. and
boiler, and also the electric light dyna-
mos an(1 machinery belonging to Mr. L
R Reeser was saved almost without
injury, but the- remeindee of.the
big- was a totalwreck. Messrs. Weir &
Weir, who are the largest dealers in
flax In the province, are heavy losers,
as there was ne•insuranee. The cause
of the fire is unknown. About 60
hands are thrown cut of employment.
On Sunday night last about 8 o'clock
the bank -barn and contents of Mr.
Samuel Essery, 3rd con. of Usborne,
were totally destroyed by fire. From
what we can learn, Mr. Essery entered
the barn, lantern in haud, to feed his
sheep and on so doing the sheep follow-
ed him, after laying the lantern on a
bag of grain he tooupa fork full of
stiaw and went to the lower apartment
and while away the sheep must have
ran against the bag and upset the lan-
tern, for on his return, to his surprise,
found the interior all in a blaze and be-
yond control. A quantity of wheat,
oats; feed, and a reaper, a binder and
1 gale harrow, were the contents. Loss
about $800.00; Insured in the Usborne
and Hibbert Ins. Co. for $600.00,
On Tuesday morning about 3 o'clock
fire broke out in the Tannery of Mr.
Bugh Moore,Clinton. The fire quick-
ly made eadway and before the
steamer arrived the building was irre-
trievably ablaee. The fire brigade
worked heroically, but the:buildiner be-
ing frarne it was Soon seen it could not
bo saved. 200 rolls of leather ready
for shipping next day were coesu.med.
A small portion of other leather stock
was saved. The hides in the pats
will probably be uninjured. The
buildings andcontents destroyed were
probably worth $4,000. No insurance.
Nothing definite known a8. to the ore

sympathy is expressed for Mr. Moore,
who is an honest and industrious man.
It is hoped he will be abie to rebuild.
