Two Italian women had a row
on Ardoyae plantation last Mon
day. The row came to blows and
in the course of evolution came to
cuts. While one Of the women
was inhuGtriously pounding the
other OH the head with a stick,
the woman that was receiving the
punishment produced a knife and
tried the edge OH her opponent with
painful but not fatal results. From
al accounts the cutting was done
in SELF defense as the wounded
woman who welded the baton
was the aggressOr. The affair
caused a ripple-ot excitement on
Ardoyne, and partially relieved
the monotony OF the 'blue Mon.
day."
