IT; about fifty of _
»tho hum theatre In _
; the performance no diffl-

town boya bad assembled. A note was
passed around among the -
mtepalsnn of flro wosnSadMUf
which served to augment the number__
tho rioters. When the performance was
over tlio students remained In the theatre.
Presently they formed In line, two by
-two. and. proceeding to the door, were
met met by Mai. Bfaeall He told them
to proceed quietly to the college. The
students In fine crossed over to tho south
jfo.ii.ef Chapelstrtot and proceeded
toward tho collego. The mob followed.
When Trinity church was reached a
volley of stones and brickbats wore
hurled by tho mob. Sovcrol of tho
students were struck and knocked In
sensible.
. . ■«- a hob or over (500.
Proceeding n ehort distanco farther
tho collego men received a second volley.
Directly after this a portion of tho mob,
which had hitherto occupied tho street,
made a rush for tho sidewalk. Immedi
ately four or five pistol shots were
heard, fired, it was afterward asserted,
by tho students. Within two minutes
of this time a cry arose that a man had
been slict. Maj. Bisscll observed a man
near him fall to the ground. Ho raised
tho body from tho ground with tiro as
sistance of tho bystanders. Upon exam
ination at tho poltco station, where it
was taken, tho body proved to bo that of
Patrick O’Neil. Ho had received two
stabs from a largo dirk knife, and lived
but a few moments after the wounds had
been inflicted upon him. Ho was ono of
tho ringleaders of tho mob upon both
Thursday and Friday overlings.
When tho mob learned of bis death it
becamo frenzied. About 600 or 600 men
rushed for tho arsenal, broke into it and
dragged out two cannon. They loaded
these to tho muzzlo with powder, stones
and brickbats and dragged them to the
city green. Another portion of the
rioters broke into tho churches and rang
a general alarm of fire, which brought
immense numbers of tho people to tho
scene. Wliilo at tho corner of Chapel
and Church streets Maj. Bissoll mounted
on ordnance carriage and addressed tho
mob, ordering it to disperso. Tlio rioters
replied that /they respected tho chief of
nolioe. but must haVo blood for blood.
Mol. Bissell remained on the gun as tho
mob dragged it toward tho college. While
bn tlio way up the Btreot tlio rioters, in
their eagerness to get at their student
enemies, tailed to keep a dose watch
upon Maj. Bissell’s movements. Before
tlio college campus was reached both
eannon had been spiked by tho police,
under the leadership of Maj. Bissell,
without tho crowd being aware of it.
Tho police, during the transaction of
these events, hod surrounded tho
churches and prevented tho further ring
ing of bells. •
Tin: mayor restores order.
At 1:30 o’clock on Saturday morning
the cannon were brought into position
and trained to bear on South collogo,
whore the students had intrenched thorn-
eel ves. When it was discovered that tho
guns were useless on attack was made
upon tho building with paving stones
and brickbats, Tho structure was badly
damaged. Tlio studonts lay low ana
made no response. Cries of “Bring out
tho murderer!” resounded in every direc
tion. At this juncture tho mayor of tho
city arrived and addressed tho infuriated
crowd. He pleaded long and earnestly
for the eauso cf order, anil promised that
the City authorities would immediately
take tho matter in liand and bring tho
perpetrator or perpetrators of tho crime
to Justice. Hia words proved effective,
ana the crowd began slowly and sullenly
to disperse. By 3 o'clock Maj. BisseU
was ablo to convoy tho cannon to tho
jail, and by 4 o’clock tho city was quidk
A court of inquiry was held on March
SOt 1834. No witness from the town was
Called who was near enough to OtNeil
when ho was stabbed to bo able to testify
anything of value concerning the iden
tity of the perpetrator of the Act The
jury finally came to the conclusion, as
,«Apreased In their verdict, that “Patrick
O'Neil come to hia death Friday evening,

Investigation was not pursued farther,
inasmuch as O’Neil belonged to the low
