separated. He succeeded in finding them
however, and took them to the lookup.

the aggressor, while his opponent, aged
about 80 years, had defended himself with
a fragment of a case-knife, the blade OF
which had been broken off near the CEN

thumb and inflicted a slight scratch on his
throat. Another man subsequently, ap-
peared at the station-house and complained

was sleeping, saying that he wa looking
for matches. They are all members of the
tramp brigade.
