Stang of the vicinity of Cloppens, this county who, on Thursday shot and killed John A. and Eugene [Pierson], aged twenty-five and twenty-two, respectively, sons of Alfred [Pierson], a well known Poolesville district farmer, was released from Jail, where he had been detained since the tragedy. His son. Joseph Stang, who had also been in jail since the shooting, also was released. Although the verdict of the jury does not preclude action by the grand Jury. It is understood no further steps will be taken against either father or son. Archie [Pierson], brother of the slain men. who was held here pending an investigation, has also been given his liberty and it is understood that no further action against him will be taken. Mrs. Joseph D. Stang, Miss Marie Stang. Joseph Stang. Jr.; Archie [Pierson], Harry W. Cahlll and Addison Young were among those who testified at the inquest. The evidence corresponded in the main with what has heretofore been published about the tragedy and showed that the three [Piersons] had been drinking, went to the Stang home looking for Cahill, with whom Archie had a short while before had trouble: handled Mrs. Stang and her daughter and son. who had been endeavoring to prevent trouble, roughly, and that while the melee was in progress the elder Stang appeared with a double-barrel shotgun and shot Eugene, and John Pierson, killing them instantly. The funeral of the slain brothers took place at 3:30 o'clock this afternoon from the chapel at Monocacy cemetery, Beallsville, burial being in Monocacy cemetery.
