Tragedy in Florida fights over yearling end in deaths
In a depot dispute over a yearling, three men die and two others are wounded. Will Sheffield and Will Jeffcoat quarrel over the case in Judge Griffin's court and on the railroad depot platform knives come into play. Flavius redcoat joins with a knife, Lewis Sheffield fires a pistol, and all three men die or are fatally injured. A Cornell University note reports on whether the comet tail affected hens, while an Egg tale from Southill mentions a two inch tail on a soft shell egg. Foley's Kidney Remedy is recommended for children and post measles use.
