unknown to her, who took to his heels
and disappeared as soon as Mrs. Tan ;
communion, Mrs A. l.. Gunther, could
scream and alarm the neighborhood'

her parents home, the affair having
taken place in the yard and she
was found to be badly bruised and her
nervous system has since undergone
serious trouble as the result of the
affair.
Mrs. Taft and Mrs. Gunther were
crossing the yard of Mrs. Taff's par

she tried to scream. He struck her IN
the back, pushed her to the ground and
choking her again, started to drag her
to the street before Mrs. Gunther. who
was badly frightened, could summon
her voice to call or scream. He had
pulled Mrs. Taft about three feet when
Mrs. Gunther screamed and at that,
he dropped Mrs. Taff's feet, by which
he was dragging her, and took to his
heels. so completely making good his
escape that police who arrived shortly
afterward could find absolutely no
trace of him.
