'Erased; la Bradford! County, FFrem the Towanda (Bradford County) Beporter.] On Tuesday, one .of the most distressing •ocurrences we have,ever been called upon *?° k Pl* ce W Sheshequia town ship, The facts, as, we have received them from reliable persons, are as follo wsln the forenoon of that day, Mr. John Kingsland, a respectable farmer, residlng in the upper P® r t of the Valley, came into his house from *" e •“eld, and commenced changing his olotbes. The servant'girl heard some words pass between Mr. K. and his wife, when;the latter rushed from • the room, pursued by her husband, who was evidently bent upon inflicting personal violence upon her. The girl, alarmed, hurried out of the house, and cried for assistance. Meanwhile Kingsland had caught his wife, knocked her down; and was stamping upon her head with his feet, when her mother, an aged woman, entered the room and pushed him off the prostrate body. He endeavored to re-commence his brutal work, bntthe mother successfully re sisted his efforts and he left the house. From bis house he went to Wm. Snyder’s, a distance of two miles, where his son, a young man, was at work, and after a few words, pulled out a revolver, firing twioe at him, happily without effect. Kingsland was immediately arrested, taken to Athens, and after an examination, committed to the jail of the county to await his trial. Mrs. Kingsland was terribly bruised about the head, and lingered, insensible, until Monday morning, when death put an end to her sufferings. A.post mortem examina tion disclosed the fact that her skuli was crushed in several places. She was aged about 48 years, and leaves three children to mourn her loss, aggravated by the unfortu nate manner of her death. Kingsland is a respectable farmer, in comfortable circumstances, and but for oc casional paroxysms of passion, a temperate and well disposed man. Some difficulty which had occurred in the family, seems to have aroused all his evil passions, and, in a moment of ungovernable fury, led him to the commission of a crime too shocking to contemplate, and whioh plunges a luge circle of relatives in the deepest affliction.
