Mr.. aud Mrs. Hewlett j.. Morris, and
their neice, Miss Sadie j. Bennett.
Shipherd became acquainted with Mrs.
Crowell in a trolley car Irritation and
visited her at her home, where he after
ward became frequent visitor. Mr..
Crowell and Miss Bennett took an extreme
aversion to the man, and both eventually
left the house. Shipherd, who is very plsus-
ible, then prevailed upon Mr.. and Mrs.

to his house, where they have since lived.
Mrs. Morris recently died there. In con-

divorced, at Southold, l.. l. He also ad-
mitted that he was In the habit OF hug
ying and kissing Mrs. Crowell.

They had been sitting In the smok-

they returned to their seats In the
body OF the car they noticed that loud,
Indecent and pr0fane conversation was
In progress. A tall, muscular man,
who had got on the car at the last sta

himself extremely Offensive by his foul
talk

'and | will take care of this swag-

The moment the train was stopped
the brute rose and threatened to shoot
anybody who should attempt to lay
hand upon him. The little minister
went boldly up to him, tapped him
lightly on the shoulder and told him
to leave the train. The bully's reply
was u vicious but ill-directcd blow,
which his little antagonist PARTED
with skill. for he was an expert boxer.
Then the little man closed In an in
slant upon the big man. gave him blow
after blow In quick succession, forced
him TO retreat 10 the platform and
finally flung lin TO the ground, where
he lay begging for mercy.

10 the ear under pledge Of remaining
quiet for the remainder of the journey.
The plucky minister's first antagon-

made a manly apology.
