It is too serious to pass over lightly. { We learn the following particulars of aHenry county tragedy, which happened last Saturday, from the Sedalia Democrat of June 17: The two farmers, John Castle and Charley Cox, living near Calhoun, each haye a stallion, and there has existed a strong rivalry between them. Last Saturday they met in Calhoun, and Cox accosted Castle in a hostile manner. He accused him of defaming him andthe merits of his horse, at the same time striking Castle. To avoid trouble Castle walked away from Cox, but the lat— ter tollowed him up and renewed the assault. He knocked Castle down, it is said, when the latter sprang to his teet and dealt his adversary a | terrific blow on the neck, felling him tothe ground and disjointing his neck, from the effects of which he died in two hours. Immediately af- ter the encounter Castle returned to his home, where he was arrested enator first, last and | about midnight.
