HARRY GETS "A RAP.
His Guardianship IS Explained by f..

Waterbury, Nov 10. 1902.

Waterbury, Nov 10, 1902.
Editor Of Democrat:
Mrs Grelle is not troubled, but might
have been had she not sought legal adj
vice in time. As the public knows, Mr.
Durant purchased the Domestic Pie
Baking Co and had been conducting
the same up to few weeks ago, when
he sold it out under peculiar circum-
stances. Mrs Grelle does not fully un-
derstand Mr. Durant's business meth
DDS, but knows they were never to her
advantage. As to Mr. Durant ever hay
ing been guardian Of one Of the heirs
of Moritz Grelle, it is mistake, though
lie was guardian of Mr. Christie, who
was secretary Of the Domestic Pie
Baking Go and whose business meth
DDS were characteristic of the guar
dian.
Mrs Grelle petitioned to have her
taxes abated for the years of 1900 and
1901, as she thought she had good rea-
sons, having been deprived of the
means to pay them by a past political
leader. #. @. GREIlLE
