Up to one o'clock it was definitely known that four deaths had occurred ‘8 a result of the disorders. These included Grace Orr, a young woman who was shot when troops Nu- merous persons were admitted to the hospitals, wounded .by rifle bullets. Sinn Fein, and Unionist shipyard workers started the rioting in York and North ‘streets. Soldiers rushed in, and kept, the two factions apart. Numerous charges were made by the police and military troops. The military forces’ held York street with armored ‘motor cars. A girl with a green blouse led the Sinn Fein attack.’ Before four o'clock the death list was increased’by the shoot- ing of a small ‘boy by a sniper. “ A curfew law will go into effect tonight, fixing-the hours from 10:30 p. m. to} a. m. 2 At anfearly hour today other dis- orders occurred in Ewarts Row, 1 Unionist quarter, which was attackel by Sinn Feiners yesterday.

The latter and the upper parts of Crumlin and Old Park roads were the centers of the fierciest fighting of the whole ,especially the “Marrow Bone,” the nickname of the Nationalist Enclave at the top of Old Park road. Sinn Feiners in this negihborhood made an organized descent on Union- ists in Crumlin road, smashing win- dows and firing into houses. Failure by the police to hold them back led to the summoning of military aid. For several hours armored cars were in action together with squads of soldiers ;and police and volleys were poured into the crowd. After two hours of stiff fighting the Sinn Feiners were driven back into Brown quarters, but snipping into the Unionists quarters continued far into Sunday morning.
