that a policeman should be assigned to
that place for the actions and language
used when there are no patrolmen in
sight is something shocking
From l0:3O until o'clock yesterday one
woman paraded the village calling one of
her nelghbors the fouIest of names and
using the most profane language, at the
same time daring her or one of her family
to come out into the street and fight.

trolmen. and when one was in sight the
battle was of and there was q lull.
