A ROW WHICH HAD A FATAL TERMINATION.
Several Men Under Arrest--Investi- gation this Morning.
Today, ia fhis former home at Loyalist Road, lies the body of Wm Proud, the victim of a violent death resulting from a row.
The circumstances connected with the occurrence are #0 shocking that their recital is almost beyond belief. Yet the facts of the matter are that this young mao was journeying home afier a visit to town, became engaged in a brawl and in a very short time lost his life.
This deplorable attair happened about seven o'clook last evening. The news of it epread quickly throughout tbe city, and drew large crowds of excited people to the scene ofthe tragedy and to the police station whither the body was taken.
As far ascan be ascertained, the dead maa came to town yesterday with his mother and brether Peter. They at. tended to several comzissions and then Williem and his brother swapped herses with « truckmaa belonging to town, named James Carr.
Some time after this two Proud’s and Carr were joined by anotber man named Rodd and the four proceeded in Rodd’s wagen to Spring Park Road,
When near Chestnut street they all got outef the wagon. As far as can ‘be learn- ed they became engaged there in @ quarrel with anumber of young menwic came up with them whose names are Edw, Heuches, John Trainor, George Tuoorae and Daniel Carroll.
Here afree fight seems te have been engaged in fora few minutes, duriog which the unfortanate victim ‘was fearful- ly pupished.
uring the fracas Proud was knocked dowm upon the street, and wes then struck a fearful biow or kicked on the jugular vein, and this fatal blow is supposed to
transactien the

Dr. McNeill, (eworn) eaid that he agreed ;
with the statements made by Dr. Johneon and attributed the death of William Proud to the effects of the blow that frac~
tured his windpipe and injured the nerves
that passed beside it. He thoughta blow
violent enough to do this could be deliver-
ed bv a man’s fist. |
Th> jury brought io the following ver- dict :
According to the sworn testimony of Drs. John°on and McNeill, appointed to hold a post mortem examination on de- ceased’s body, the deceased, William Proud, came to his death in Charlottetown on Monday, the Ist day of August inst., at Lower Spring Park Road, from the effects of a blow 0 the windpip?, his death being possibly hastened by violence to
other parts of his body.
