The foregoing was telephone mes
sage received at The Forum office last
night The man at the other end of
the wire said he was Earl Lang.
Witnesses assert that Mrs. Skridsol
did strike Mr.. Lang with whip The
Forum gives his statement, however.
1t appears THAT Lang licked Skridsol
who had abused horse and broken a
buggy and refused to pay for the
damages.
For avenging the cruelty to animals
the people of Moorhead are inclined to
commend Mr.. Lang.
