by imd snatched at Mr Q larles' cane.
In a rather pleasant tone Mr Quarles
8id: ' You are getting ready to be
slugged, ain't you "
Gauibel replied by a rowdy oath
and an epithet, whereupon Mr,
Q larles raised his cane and struek

f'irkand plun ed it into Mi Quarles'
left side, inflicting a ghastly wound,

stabbing people, fl.'d Mr. Quarles is
the third victim of his knife within
