About tnid night a eltarivarl party put in an ap- . peueranee, and Joseph Bussey, a young matt of twenty-five or thirty years, who was in the house with the wed - cling party. went outside to quiet the disturbance. Whether through gees- - dent or carelessness, :t shotgun in the lt:Lncds of nue of the eliarivari party went off and several of the shot struck Hussey, shine in the side of the heard and some in his side. Doctors were summoned from Ii;intail, and Dr. Whitely went up from Goderich. In response to a message from Kintail, Provincial Constable Phelan left about 1() o'clock Thursday morning for the scene.--[(ioderich Signal. LAMER,. (loderieh, June 29, --The Kingsbridge shooting affair of 'Wednesday night is assuming a more serious aspect than appeared at first. Joseph Hussey, the man who was shot, is not expected to recover. Twenty-seven shots, size B, lodged in his body, neck and head. Doctors Whitely of Goderich and Simpson of Kintail have extracted a large number but others cannot be reached. Early this morning, as the result of a visit to the scene last: night by Crown Attorney Seeger, Detective Phelan and Constable McCreath, three young men, Matthew Meereight, Thos. Fairish and Chas. Taylor, were lodged in the county jail here. Fur- ther arrests are expected. Crown At- torney Seeger is working actively in the matter, and left again this even- ing for Kingsbridge. Detective Mur- ray of Sarnia, who arrived to -day, and Detective Phelan are also on the ground, It appears that there was some ill - feeling on the part of a considerable number of people around Kingsbridge because they had not been invited to the Dalton -Moss wedding on Wednes- day, which was quite a large affair, When the crowd gathered around the Dalton house at midnight two or three of thelia had guns. Hussey came out of the honse and fired a gun with the object of scaring the intru- ders away, and as he turned to re-en- ter the house someone fired on hint with terrible effect. Hussey belongs to a well-known family of Ashfield township. Rev. Father Hussey of Ridgetown is bis brother, and he has arrived and is attending him. It is reported that one of the men under arrest has con- fessed to the shooting, but this cannot be verified. = 1: Lower Wingham School Report. schools for the holidays. last Monday. meet, as a Const of Revision and ,rip+ with Mrs, has been laid u Art.
