CHARGED WITH ARSON.
Pearl Greene, Merchant in Stock
bridge, Arrested.

Pearl Greene of Stockbridge was
arrested by Officer Paul Tinkham
Tuesday upon charge of alleged
arson, the complaint being made by
States Attorney Charles Batchelder
and the warrant issued by Justice
r. J. Flint. On or about October A,
1904, store in Stockbridge, owned
and conducted by Mr.. Greene, was
burned, there being certain insur-
ance on the building and contents.
AS far as is known there was no
suspicion of incendiarism at the
time and the matter of insurance was
satisfactorily arranged. The arrest
at this time, more than a year after
the fire, came as a great surprise.
