GARDNER. Oct. ".
Robert Grady of Augusta. an employe in
the mills of the Edwards Manufacturing Co.,
in that city, was up in the police court
Tuesday afternoon for making threats on
Mr.. S. w. Glidden of West Gardiner. 1t
seems that Grady has several times threat
ened to thrash Glidden whenever he met him
and on Sunday last in company with his
brother, Grady drove out to West Gardiner
where Glidden resides. Glidden was out in
his yard and considerable hard talk ensued,
finally ending in Graiy's challenging Glidden
to come out in the road and he would Lick
him." As Grady was under the influence of
liquor no attention was paid to it. Tuesday
Deputy Sheriff StinsOn armed with war
rant went to Augusta and arrested Grady on
the charge of making threats against Mr.
Glidder who asked for protection. 1t seems
that the trouble arose out of family affairs,
Grady marrying Mr.. Glidden's daughter Who
afterw ards got a divorce from him. Grady
vas put under $500 bonds to keep the peace.
Jsbn Grady. the prisoners brother, became
his bond- man and he was rel, ased.
