liam Fisher. who stated that ]. w.
Greenwell, a young white man., had,
under force of threats to beat him,
compelled him to steal a pair Of shoes
belonging to Anthony Lubisky, boy
living at No. 1901 Beech street, and
give them TO him.
The alleged theft took place on
last Thursday afternoon in Forman's s
Woods. near Union street Lubisky
was in swimming and his shoes were
close by with his clothes. Peter
Kempski and Adam Pintski. two boys
who were with Fisher, said that they
heard Greenwell order Fisher to take
the shoes and threaten TO strike him
If he did not. The shoes, II is said,
were given Greenwell in the woods.
Lubisky said he saw Greenwell
wearing the shoes in Delamore Park
on Friday evening.
Greenwell denied that he had
threatened the boys. but said that
the boys asked the Fisher boy if he
wished a good pair of shoes. Green
well was held in $500 bail for The
