A HeaIdviIIe AssRiIant Held Under
$4,000 Bonds.

VIM. b. Hoskinson, a prominent resi-
dent of Healdville, was assaulted at that
place Saturday by John Workman, large
and very powerful man. Hoskinson was
knocked down and left senseless by the
roadside, where he was found by his son
covered with bruises. Workman fled on
the train, but officers in many towns were
notified to be on the watch for him, and
he was arrested at Bellows Falls. He was
held there over Sunday and on Monday
was taken to Rutland by Sheriff l.. G.
Howe of Windsor county. He had hear
ing at Rutland, and in default of $1,000
bail was lodged in the county Jail. Chas.
Robb of Bellows Falls appeared for Wort
man and States Attorney j. c. Jones of
Rutland county for the prosecution. The
assault grew out of the fact that Mrs.
Workman asked Hoskinson about some
milk for the cheese factory. He referred
her to his brother, who had charge of the
business. The woman insisted on settling
the matter with Hoskinson, and became
abusive in her language, Hoskinson finally
referring to the Workman family as 'shys-
ter" and this epithet caused the husband
to make the attack.
