Richard L. Anderson, Sen

Of Judge Pugh's branch of the Police

AS the child finished she turned. and,
resting her head on the rail in front of
her. wept convulsively.
After ascertaining the facts in cOnnec-
ton with the mothers death, Judge Pugh
ordered Anderson's release. The sentence
of six months was vacated.
THE most distressing feature OF the
case is that the father died just month
ago. and grief and worry undoubtedly
had something to do with the mothers
physical collapse that ended in her
DEATH" said Probation Officer Massie.
Anderson was employed as baggag &c
helper at the Union station until April 10
when he became involved in an aiterca-
ton with superior. 1t was a question
of veracity between them. Anderson los;
his temper and struck the other man

conviction for assault, was sentenced to
six months in the workhouse.
Later today, when Anderson was given
his liberty. he and his little sister met in
the hallway Immediately outside Of the
courtroom. He clasped her in his arms
and covered her face with kisses. Later
they were taken to the Rosedale home by
the court probation officer. Anderson was
not informed OF his mothers death until
early this morning.

remembered in substantial way the lii

gave them ideas which materially aided
their success by sending to Mrs. Charles
Trump OF this place notice that they will
place $1,000 to her credit i'm a bank at
Dayton, Ohio.
This. they say. they will do because
of the clever ideas she suggested to them
Mrs Trump was Miss Carrie Trunnick
before her marriage, and went to school
with the Wright brothers. Even in these
days the Wright boys had the airship
idea, and the little girl. who was in III cir
confidence. incorporated her ideas into
drawings and drew the plans of the boys
for them from which they worked.
In after years she assisted them in the
same way, and they give her credit for
much of their success.
