A Brief Note From 1889 About A Music Lesson

From the June 18, 1889 Brooklyn Daily Eagle:

Kerwood,  W. Va.–William Miller, a  farmer, is dying from the effects of knife wounds inflicted by George Sell, a music teacher at Stemple Ridge. A few evenings ago Sell was conducting a song when a son of Miller interrupted and a fight ensued. Sell whipped young Miller. The father interfered and Sell disemboweled the elder Miller with a knife.”
