SHOTS FIRED FROM A SECOND PISTOL.

Evidence of Rev. Geo Damm, or Crediton, Formerly of Waterloo, given at the Inquest on Tragedy at Tavistock Charivari.

Tavistock, Sept. 28.-Today's session of the inquest opened at Cassel by Coroner Hotson, of Innerkip, threw but little light upon the mysterious death of John Hauch, the young man who was fatally shot on Tuesday evening during a charivari which followed a wedding at the Wagester farm, concession 17, East Zorra Township. Only three witnesses were examined today, two dealing merely with the identification of the body, while the evidence of the third, an eye witness of the tragedy, was identical with the story of the occurrence already told in the columns of this paper. This witness was Rev. George Damm, of Crediton, a relative of the Wagester family, who assisted in performing the marriage ceremony. The important points of his evidence were his statements that he saw flashes coming from the darkness at spots separate at least a distance of six feet, and that he heard shots discharged simultaneously, or with only a second's time between them. This confirms the supposition that at least one other member of the charivari party beside Hauch carried a weapon as it would have been impossible for Hauch to discharge his antiquated pistol rapidly as for each discharge a fresh cap was required.

The Inquest Opened.

The inquest was opened as Cassel early in the afternoon. After the swearing in of the jury, the whole party went to the Kennel farm, a mile distant, to view the body. Returning to Cassel, the coroner proceeded with the taking of evidence.

John Hauch, Sr., father of the dead boy, identified the body as that of his son. So far as he knew, the boy had no enemies, nor had he ever had any serious illness.

Christian Bender, son of Mrs. Bender, by whom Hauch was employed, said that Hauch left the Kennel Farm between 7 and 8 o'clock on Tuesday evening. The witness identified the coat produced as that worn by Hauch.

Rev. George Damm, of Crediton, related briefly the incidents leading up to the beginning of charivart about 9 o'clock. The young men were drawn up on the lawn opposite the south verandah of the house. The boys in the first line had "horse fiddles," while those in the second line were armed with cowbells and tin pans. Back of them again, between two trees and in the shadow of the hedge, was some person or persons discharging firearms. There were varying intervals between the shots, in one case one shot following another within a second. There were not less than five and not more than seven shots fired.


Shots Fired Simultaneously.

Two shots were fired simultaneously when the charivari started. The flashes did not all come from the same spot, being separated by about six feet. The reports were not loud as those from a gun or rifle.

Mr. Damm's evidence concluded the session, and an adjournment was made till Thursday of next week. The evidence of the 10 or 12 young men who formed the charivari party will be taken. It is possible that under oath some of them may be more communicative as to the presence of other weapons, from one of which must have come the shot which ended. young Hauch's life.

One of the Party Fainted.

There was an uncomfirmable rumor in the neighborhood that after Hauch was shot a young man was seen running down the lane to the road. It is a fact that one of the charivariers, a six-foot youth, fainted away when he learned that Haugh was dead.

At 6 o'clock Dr. Steete, of Tavistock, performed an autopsy, the result of which he will report to the jury next week. The coroner issued a burial certificate, and the body was taken tonight to Petersburg for interment.

Mrs. Bender, of the Kennel Farm, speaks in the highest terms of the dead boy. He was quiet, indusous and obedient, never left the farm without asking permission, and rarely went out at night. Tuesday night's charivari is believed to be the first, as it was the last, he ever attended.

It is not generally known that in most communities the practice of holding a charivari comes under the ban of the law. Under a provincial Act, Municipal Councils are authorized to forbid it by by-law, and section 9 of By-law 444 of East Zorra Township reads as follows:
"No person or persons shall engage in any ringing of bells, blowing of horns, firing of guns, rattling of tin pans, or any other devices for making noise at charivaries or like disturbance of the peace in the Township of East Zorra."
