thought the man had been struck
by an automobile and killed. He
notified a Dunellen undertaken and
had the body removed TO the
morgue.
This morning Officer Mccarthy in
going to the spot was told that there
had been an argument last night
between the man who was murdered
and another resident in that neigh
borhood. He visited the house of
the man whose name he secured and
found a hammer and Ratchet, both
of which were covered with blood.
The officer Immediately placed the
man under arrest to await. further
investigation.
The dead man had been living in
South Plainfield for some time un-
der the name of John Vosnock, hav-
ing served in the army and at one
time lived in Perth Amboy where
his wife and three children are said
t o be living now. He left his family
and was boarding in Oak Tree road
while employed in the Spicer plant
at South Piainfield. The mans real
