THIRTY DAYS FOR COLE.
All He Gets for Murderous Assault on
Mrs. Laird.


Harvey Cole, who eight years ago
was paroled from state prison after
serving twelve years ofsa twenty-year
sentence for the murder of his wife
here while in drunken rage, was
committed to the Morris county jail
Saturday night for thirty days for
making what the authorities say was
murderous attack on Mrs. James
Laird, in her own home.S The woman
came to Mendham with her husband
and -year-old boy three years ago,
suffering from tuberculosis.
The Lairds live in apartments on
the floor. above the Bachelor apart
ments occupied by Cole. Saturday
afternoon Cole went home intoxicated,
and broke in the door of Mrs. Laird s
rooms, accusing her of blowing out the
light at the door of his apartments.
Mrs. Lairds husband was in Pater-
son at the time and her son was the
only other person present. Cole, it is
charged, seized her by the throat and
began beating her. She was unable to
scream, but the boy ran toFhe street
and summoned passers-by, who pulled
Cole away from the woman he was
beating. He was subdued after hard
battle, in which the clothing of his
captors we're torn.
AS soon as Mrs. Laird had recovered
she went with an escort to Justice OF
the Peace Mal.on and had Cole ar
rested charged with assault and bat
terry. The justice committed Cole to
Jail at once.
