Judge John P. McMahon in Police

1200 block C St. S. E.. the com

neighbor, Mrs. Betty Mayhew, came

hair was pulled, and Mrs. Goldsbor

Mrs. Mayhew said she acted in
self defense and admitted doing the
choking. She testified that her
neighbor approached her first and

sticks. The one alleged to have
been held by Mrs. Goldsborough was
much larger than the other and had
two nails in it.
Judge McMahon dismissed the

Got Start With
Newspapers
