Samuel Sweeney was returning home
from the city about half past ten Saturday evening, and when near Eighth and
Kerlin streets was attacked by two men and struck with what was supposed
to be a blackjack, and left on the street stunned and bleeding. After a while
he came to. The men had meanwhile left, and no traces were found. Robbery was
evidently no their aim. Mr. Sweeney was able to walk home.
