Judge James B. Carey this week
cautioned two men who had been
having a dispute in the farm area
east of Selbyville to seek legal
remedies for any grievances and
not to take the law into their own
hands.
I'VE had a case of murder not
long ago over just such dispute
as this and a man was sent to Jail
for life," he warned. 1--WE don't
want anoJner Quillen case here. .
The mattes' was brought up in
Superior Court when the peace
bond of Arthur Williams, set on
May 80, was returned to the court.
Raymond McCabe, Jr., asked
that the peace bond be continued.
He said that he and his father had
leased the land across the road
from Williams and were farming
it but that at the time the bond
was set, Williams had fired across
their heads.
Giving his side of the story, Will
liams said that with a mile of
road-front, the work with noisy
machinery had been carried on
directly across from his house.
Judge Carey continued the peace
bond and told Williams, "If he
commits a real nuisance, take re-
course to law That's what we have
courts for-to straighten things
out. Don't try to do it yourself. II
you believe your rights are viola
ted, go to see Deputy Attorney
General Baker. He will be your at
torney."
Other peace bonds were discuss
ed and the appeal from a drunken
driving conviction of Russell Gey-
er, Milton, was set for trial next
Monday.
Col. Baker moved that the appeal
of Lewis Richardson from q
drunken driving conviction be dis.
missed but Attorney Frederick P
Whitney objected, saying that the
defendant had not been Informed
Of his right to appeal and thai
the magistrate, Mrs. Helen Faust
Lewes, should be brought into
court and asked to change her rec.
ords to show that Richardson haC
entered plea of not guilty rather
than the guilty plea claimed.
Judge Carey directed Attorney
Whitney to file written argument
Milford chronicle., 1957-06-28

Carey, presiding, said that he had
been associated with the court for
more than 20 years and had known
of no previous occasion or ~sliish
the grand jury did not have to
meet the first day of new court
term
Others associated with the court
for longer periods said that they
were sure of the grand jury hear
ings for at least rs years.
Tbs one case which had been
/ prepared for presentation by Depu-
ty Attorney General Ralph S. Bak-
er, solved itself on June Is when
the defeneent pleaded guilty to a
/ lesser offense and his plea was
accepted by Col. Baker.
George Mathews, As, Rehoboth,
had originally been slated Fer
grand jury consideration on two
charges. of assault with intent to
kill but later offered to plead gull
ty to two charges of assault and
battery.
He was sentenced yesterday to
two consecutive prison terms Of
three years each by Judge Carey,
making a total of six years.
Col. Baker, describing the charg-
es against Mathews to the judge,
said that on April 6, near the Re
hoboth town limits, Mathews went
/ looking for his common-law wife,
Alma Warren, and found her at the
home of Leonard Blackwell
He shot her with a % rifle and
later also shot Blackwell. Accord
ing to Col. Baker, Miss Warren
Was first taken to Beebe Hospital
and then to Delaware Hospital in
Wilmington and that she is now
unable to speak because of the
wounds.
Blackwell was paralyzed though
Col. Baker said that the paralysis
is being reduced. However, he has
a $1,000 hospital bill already.
The accused had a previous
criminal record which was intro
duced in court showing he had
served prison sentences in both
New Jersey and Maryland
When sentence was pronounced
by Judge Carey, Mathews rose
from his chair and said, That's
too much time, Your Honor"
He said that the Warren wo-
man had caused it all and claimed
that she and Blackwell had at
tempted to Jump" him when he
went after Miss Warren.
Col. Baker, however, said that
bullet holes had been found inside
the house and not outside where
Mathews said he had done the
shooting.
Judge Carey remarked to Mat
hews, sYou are fortunate you
weren't brought before me on a
murder charge"

When is a patio not patio?
Arthur Dean Belts, Georgetown
attorney, told Vice Chancellor
William Marvel in Court Of Chan
cery here Tuesday that the parti-
cular patio under discussion was
actually a beach erosion project
in disguise.
The Town Of Bethany Beach
through its attorney, Robert w
Tunneii, is seeking to compell Mr.
and Mrs. William Rogers, who own
ocean-front property, to comply
with the coming laws and remove
d porch patio which they claim
violates the law.
Mr. and Mrs. Rogers contend
that the zoning ordinance is un-
constitutional and that the loca-
tion of the property made the
porch extension necessary. Their
attorney said that the wind lifts
up the sand and takes ii away and
though other methods of prevent
ing erosion were tried, none OF
them worked until the wood patio
was constructed.
The case was heard briefly with
several witnesses called including
Miss Bessie Christian, member OF
the Bethany Beach Board Of Com
missioners and its secretary, and
@. =. Hart, building inspector foI
the town.
Both attorneys were asked to file
briefs.
For the first time for at least
25 years there were no indictments
to be considered by Sussex County
grand jury at the opening day oi
Superior Court here on Monday.
Perhaps it is the first time in
the history of the present court
system but this could not be def.
nitely established. Judge James B
