IN ROLE
'OF A SOLOMON

Judge Wilcox was called upon yesterday
morning to act rs a Solomon respecting
the question of a womans title to prop
erty which she E..lds by living upon he
same despite the attempts of mortgages
to wrest it from her. Mrs. Louise Mobiles
was the way in which the woman's name
appeared upon the court docket, although
she called herself Mrs Hunt while on the
witness stand, testifying further that she
was the widow of the late Fire Chief
Hunt.
Mrs Nobes or Mrs. Hunt was brought
before the district magistrate on charge
of assault and battery preferred by j. H.
Cummings. The latter alleged that ne en-
tered the premises occupied at present
| by Mrs MOBILES, on the ground that he
| held a mortgage on the place given him
| by Mr. Hunt there being no signature

months he says he has endeavored TO es-
tablish his claim to the premises, but mas
failed to eject the present occupant nc
stated on the stand that while on me
premises yesterday forenoon Mrs. Nobies'
or Mrs Hunt, laid whip across ms
shoulders and compened him to MAKE
haste to get through the gate.
1t was inferred that yesterdays pro
ceeGings were not so much OF an eHorl

by saying sheywas Mrs. Hunt, the WHO"
of Fire Chief Hunt.

against Mrs. Mobiles. by giving her Ihe
