BRUTAL ACT OF VIOLENCE
At 9.30pm on Thursday 28th of June, an affray took place
at the house of Mr. Margison, the Fox and Goose Inn,
Bolton Street. It appears that some Irishmen and Englishmen
were in company, and a quarrel having taken place on some
trivial point of difference, a fight ensued between one Englishman
and an Irishman, in which the latter was worsted.
A signal being given, an additional number of Irishmen came
up from Dock Street, and Mr. Butler, who resides in Bolton Street,
of the firm Walker and Butler, having temporarily come out of his
house, one of the Irishmen with a spade in his hand, suddenly rushed
upon Mr Butler and cut him severely on the head, and different parts
of his body. He was much injured, but not so seriously as to place him
in danger.
We hope the ruffian who committed the cowardly assault, may be
immediately brought to justice.
