Brown was Fitting on a blanket on
the floor, quietly pufing a cigarette.
When asked about his trouble he did
not hesitate to talk. He said that he
and Sullivan had been the very best
friends and had been to the city Sat-
urday afternoon. They had been
drinking, Brown saying he lad im-
bibed alcohol toddies. When they
started home they carried some liquor
and took a drink occasionally. At the 1
Beard place at Govalle Brown sald he
got out of the wagon. Intending to stop
there over night, as he had done many
times before. He asked Sullivan for
a cigarette, “Sullivan said he did not
have a cigarette," said Brown, “but '
that he had a fight if I wanted one.
He jumped down off the wagon and (
came at me, but we were separated be-
fore either of us were' hurt. I started
to go to the house when Sullivan com- 1
menced throwing watermelon rind* at (
me. Then he came at me with a knife (
in his hand. His brother tried to stop
him and was cut-on the arm. He kept
on at me and I pulled my knife and
cut him in self defense. I just had to
cut him or be cut myself. I was not
hurt and I hope he is not hurt.”
Sullivan was brought to the city
hospital at .7 o’clock last night.
He is very weak and his condition
is serious. He is by far the worst
slashed up man ever brought to the
hospital. There are a number of cuts
on his back, and one extending from
under the left shoulder blade around
to the left nipple. It is nearly a foot
in length, and the point of the knife
scraped along the ribs. The most 1
dangerous stab is over the heart, and
