John Dubel in trouble with the law, 1879

New Jersey Courier 16 Mar 1879: John H. Dubel started for a prolonged spree at Mt. Holly on Saturday with his week's earnings. It is alleged that while he was drinking, at the bar of the hotel, his father entered and endeavored to persuade him to go home. He replied with epithets to his father, but this did not deter the latter from imploring him to stop his drinking and return home. Dubel, at least partially intoxicated, grew angry and is said to have thrown his father aside, and, drawing his revolver, fired twice, one of the bullets inflicting a serious wound which will probably result fatally. Young Dubel was arrested and since he has grown sober is greatly distressed at his terrible act.
