Cork, April 15.  Last Thursday night one glass a baliff,
hearing that a young gentleman ( for whom he had an action )
was at dancing-school, went there to take him; as soon as he
enter'd the room, the gentleman drew his sword, and desired
him to keep his distance, or he should pay for offering to
take him in such a place; but Glass, regardless of his
treats, attack'd him, upon which the gentleman ran him thro'
the body, so that he died that evening, and the gentleman
was taken by a comrade of Glass's and committed to goal.
