station to send Officer Sasse to her
place. Fire Driver Ed Monroe, who
told the woman that Mr.. Sasse was
not in at that time, informed her that
officer O'Brien was there. The woman
declared that she did not want Mr..
O'Brien, and again asked for Mr..
Sasse.

made the trip to the house and there
arrested two women inmates with

OF the resort, had had trouble over
money which one of the women claim
ed was due her.
