The citizens of a community

right, as your home and COM

then comes your county, state and

published for the benefit of our

other community in the county,

from the paper that we should,
it is our fault and not the editors.

LENTz, n, SHOOTS HIS Wife,
So, four TIMES after A VIOLENT
QUARREL AT THE BREAKFAST TABLE

Bergen county will undoubtedly
have another murder trial added to the
list now awaiting action by the courts.
in which George Lentz, retired fire.
man, aged seventy-one years, may be
the leading figure.
For some time past Lentz had been
dropping hints around North Airing
ton in regard to trouble in his family,
but very little attention was paid to
them on account Of his age.
These thoughts of the old man found
vent Wednesday morning while he and
his wife, aged fifty-eight, were eating
breakfast, and a quarrel ensued.
Mrs. LentZ after finishing her meal
arose from the table, put wrap
around her shoulders and started for
the barn, short distance from the
house
The husband followed her few
minutes later and resumed the argu-
ment. He became greatly excited and
without warning pulled a revolver
from his pocket and fired four shots at
her, each one taking effect. The first
struck her in the head near the tenn
pie and the other three went into her
body, one going clear through and
coming out at the back.
As the woman fell to the ground
Lentz turned around and started for
the house Neighbors summoned Chief
of Police Hugo Mango, and he placed
Lentz under arrest, taking him to po-
lice headquarters. From here he was
brought to Hackensack Jail and COM
mitted without bail.
The wounded woman was hurried to
the hospital at Kearney, and there are
small hopes of her recovery
The foundation for the shooting is
said to be Lentz's hallucination that
his wife was unfaithful to her mar
! riage vows with relative of the would
be Hackensack Record.
