MUCH ADO OVER A FENCE.
Brattleboro Woman TerrOrized Everyone
Who Attempted to Build It.

Brattleboro, Nov. l7.-Deyelopments in
the Grady Bowler litigation, which has
been agitating the lower section Of Brat.
tIeboro for many months, came To an
abrupt termination Monday, for the pres.
ent at least, when Judge Alfred A. Hall
issued an injunction order against Mrs
Bridget NJ Bowler, restraining her from
interfering with the complainants in tbe
construction Of a fence between the
Grady property and the Bowler property.
The orators, Mrs Abby Grady, Hannah
Grady, Eliza A. Grady, John p. Grady
and Nora Grady, own a parcel Of land
in Reed street, and next to it is the
house owned by Mrs. Bowler. Both are
built on q rocky ledge and In the con-
struction Of the Bowler house IL was
necessary to blast out large piece Of
this ledge next I'd the Grady property,
leaving a decliyity many feet in height.
In order to prevent possible injury from
falling over this bank the Cradys pro-
posed TO erect fence. the erection being
under the strict disapproyal OF Mrs.
Bowler.
August |, 1909, Mrs. Grady employed
Patrick Fleming to construct the fence
but, while attempting to do so, Mrs
Bowler wrested his materials from him
and threatened him with thorough
scalding BY means Of pail Of boiling
water should be persist IN his work
August 8, a man by the name of Russell
was employed for the same purpose. but
he was. also put to ront BY threats from
Mrs Bowler. On August IA, Mr.
Bean attempted TO put up the fence. but
he was intimidateds so that be refused
to continue longer on the job.
The climax came, however, on October
2l, when a gang Of Italian laborers
camped on the Grady property and
started 10 build the fence. Mrs. Bowler
threatened to bring out an arsenal and
lombard the workers. but they were
to her threeats ana were
finally put 10 ienominious flight ny d
wen directed stream of cold vet water
from garden hose.
The outcome has since remained in
doubt, but BY the injunction order 81
Judge Hall, Mrs. Bowler is restrained
from offering further interference with
the work. and i ordered to appear be-
fore the Windham county court at its
next sitting in april, 1910, to show cause
why the fence should not be built.
Meanwhile. the hammers are sounding
a lively tattoo around the Grady home,
and the fence i fast nearing completion.
