Erroneous Statements made In
Reference 10 it.-NObUdy Really
to Blame.
At the best the landlord system is
harsh, but it has to be so to cbeckmate
dishonest people, who would pay 20
rent if they could possibly avoid doing
So Very often innocent and honest
pt ople are male to suffer as the law
bears alike upon all. In the unfortn-
nate McGiirchey case, Mrs. Hannah
Grubb being the landlady, the proceet-
ings all appear to be regular, and no
undue severity seems to have been eX-
ercised by either the landlady or Con
sable Pritchett as is attempted to be
shown by the Morning News, part pf
it's article being pronounced totally IN
correct by Mrs. Grubb and Constables
Pritchett and Hickman.
| A representative of the REPUBLICAN
this morning fell in with constable
Hickman. He says he went along with
Mr.. Pritchett by his request to make
the levy. Constable Dillon was not along
as stated. Mr.. Hickman says he
went to the door, S02 Conrad street and
found it locked, when Mr.. Pritchett
went to the rear, jumped over the fence
and came and opened the front door,
Mrs. MCGlinchey came down and they
all sat down in the room and the officers
made the levy, Mrs. McGlincbey tb'n
said her husband was very sick IN bsd
and desired the officer not 10 60 up
sta RS as it would excite bin. Mr.. rrii-
chett made no effort to 60 UP stairs,
but said that he would be satisfied
|if Mrs. McGlmchry would maine
over the arli les IN th9 room. This she
did but Mr. Hickman denies that
| Plitchttt sal eyes, | can take that
bed, and if you don't get toe money III
two hours. | will tax everything from
the house.
on the contrary M. Piitche't was
wiling to give all the time required t.
pay the rent if security was given ard
even gave the woman until Y . clock IL
the evening in which to get Secml,v.
Constable Prtchett was atterwari> >lnt
at Mrs. Gruhb's residence and Gun
phatically couCuired in al. Mr.. iiici-
man had stat ID. Not oliy that but az
soon as it was found Mr.. McGlmCh"y
was very sick, with the consent OF Mr-.
Grubh, proceedings were stayed. Mr..
Prltchett denies thai 1t was the day be-
fore the levy was made ihst Re cal ed
upon DR.. Hazl|tt but says that 1t wa
the same day, an hour or 50 after he
made tie levy, and VII N ke found Mr,
