to furnish bond of $500 he was
taken to Brooklyn Jail.
Miss Maynard identified the man as
the person who assaulted her. Ae-
eording to the story Miss Maynard has
told friends, she was in Webster
week ago last Sunday night and left
there on the 945 car for home. She
changed cars at the state line and,
knowing the motorman of the car,
told him to stop at Wilsonyille. The
motorman jolsingly said that they did
not stop at Wilsonvilie. She then
noticed the man whom she identified
in court as her assailant, and he said
to her that if she would sit with him
he wouldn't let her be carried by. He
kept making advances to her during
the ride. When the stop at Wilson
vile was made she got off and afsef
the car had gone the man appeared
from the other side. She tried to pass
but he stopped her and she told him to
get away. With that he grabbed her
and knocked her down. She began to
scream and struggle and he threaten
ed to choke her. She kept on strug-
