oner, her daughter, Mrs. Annie
Shannon, and Calvin Gardner. a
neighbor, as principals and other
neighbors as witnesses, resulted in
their Incarceration. The quarrel had
its incipiency early in the evening be-
cause Gardner refused TO open a shed
of which he claims possession. He
alleged that Mrs. Peyers was SO in
censed by his obstinacy that she fir
ed bundle of paper and put it into
the shed, setting the structure afire.
Neighbors who had been kept awake
by the obscene language which ac-
companied threats of personal in
jury, aided in extinguishing the
blaze before il had communicated to
other structures nearby. The prop
erty is at zoos Fourth avenue and is
owned by Peter Summers.

Charges of disorderly conduct
were at first filed against the women
in the case but were dismissed.
Gardner himself was charged with
assault and battery for having
struck Mrs. Shannon. He claims that
he did it in self defense and only
after the women had threatened to
cut him with Ratchet. He claims to
have taken the hatcet away from
her
