BIG SECTION Of
LLEWELLYN PARK
IN NEW HANDS
Said That Six Acres of Exclusive
Property Will Be Cut Into
Building Lots.

Considerable surprise was manifested
West Orange. when it became known
that the Cantine property, in Wildwood
avenue, had been sold to Salvatore
Stizza. a real estate dealer of Orange,
and that the six acres of property were
to be cut up into some fifty building
lots and small family houses and apart
ments erected thereon. The sale was
made by F. c. Cantine and it is said
that prominent society folk who have
extensive estates there were told it was
the intention to put up structures much
smaller than now are the rule in the
exclusive residential park. According
to reports the word was promptly sent
back that the new owner could do as he
pleased. His plans did not concern
the present owners in the slightest de-
gree" One of the rumors is that the
new owner has been offered and refused
some $50, 900 for the property.
The property is near the Mount
Pleasant avenue entrance to the dis
trict and is in immediate proximity to
the estate of Eliza B. Plummer, the
H. T. Folsom estate and the grounds of
C. r. Browning. The park is the home
of Thomas A. Edison, former State

NOVEL POINT IN WOMAN'S
SUIT AGAINST THE ERIE.
Did Attempt to Save Son, Killed,
Bar Damages?

A novel legal principle is involved in
the suit to be started shortly In the
Supreme Court by Benjamin Weinberg,
Kearny. against the Erie Railroad
Company for $4,000 for injuries she
sustained on July 5 last. The point is
that where there is a reasonable chance
for a person in danger to be rescued,
and both rescued and rescuer are in
jured. the negligent one is held re-
sponsible for the injuries of both.
On the date mentioned Mrs. Pang-
born's four-year-old boy, James, jr.,
was playing on the Erie tracks be-
tween Schuyler and Sanford
He did not notice the approach of a
number Of freight cars backing down
toward him. The mother, however,
who was in the house, was attracted
by the yells and shouts of passersby
and ran out. Thinking there was a
reasonable chance of ~rescuing her
child, she rushed out to the tracks and
made a grab at the youngster. She
missed, however, and her momentum
carried her almost across the tracks,
but not quite enough to escape being
struck on the side of her head. The
boy was killed.
Mrs. Pangborn for a long time was
