FOR EFFECT

Constable Claims That
"Mrs. Gill ing
Is Not Injured to Any
Serious Extent.
He Gives His Side of the
Assault Story.
The Officer Will be Tried Monday
Morning.
New developments continup to
present, themselves in the trouble
arising from Constable Grant Bow
man's attempt to'secure on a writ of
replevin a, horse held by Budion, the
Copley township Hungarian.
As told in Thursday's Democrat
Jacob Gilling made information
before Justice P. H. Hoffman, charg
ing Bowman with assault and bat
tery upon the person of his wife,
Kate Gilliug. In response to a tele
phone message from Constable John
Vosburg, Bowman came to the city
and gave bond in the sum of $50 for
his appearance at a hearing set for
Monday afternoon at 2 o'clock.
Both sides of the story in the new
development follow:
Gilling states that Bowman's at
tack upon his wife was unprovoked.
He also claims that shooting was
done by .the officers. When Bow
man attempted to place handcuffs on
Gilling, his wife appeared and re
monstrated with the officer, where
upon he kicked her in the stomach,
injuring her so badly that she had to
be carried into the house, placed in
bed and a physician called to attend
to her injuries. The handcuffs were
then removed from Gilling's hands,
upon request to go into the house to
see his wife. Shortly afterwards, it
is alleged, Bowman- went to the
door, and finding it locked, crushed
it in with an ax. Gilling was hold
ing by the.hand a little child, whom
the officer, it is stated, grabbed away
from the father and hurled into a
corner, injuring the little" one con
siderably. Mrs. Gilling is a daughter of Hud
ion. Her husband has placed their
case against Bowman in the hands
of Attorney J. E. Seiber, who will
endeavor to prove that Bo wman was
acting in the matter without author
ity, having secured the writof replev
in in Portage township and executing
it in Copley. He will also place in
evidence testimony calculated to
show that the violence used by the
officer and his deputies was unpro
voked. Bowman is inclined to treat the
matter lightly, and seems confident
of proving himself innocent of the
charge of assault and battery. He
claims that when he was hand cuff
ing Gilling, the latter's wife came to
his rescue, attempting to scratch
his face, pull his hair, .and beat him
with her fists. Shortly after this she
was taken into the house. Bowman
also entered the building to ascertain
the extent of her injuries. She was
was in bed when he entered, but
when she saw him she sprang out on
the floor and pointing her finger at
him she exclaimed: "There's the
cuss that killed me."
Bowman thinks Mrs. Gilling's in
juries, which were reported Thurs
day evening as being of a very ser
ious character, are merely being pre
tended and that her being in bed is
for the effect of giving gravity to
the case. .
Considerable interest is being mani
fested and tho outcomo of the trial
Monday is being discussed with ninny
conjectures.

New England Bread was first
made and introduced in Akron by
the Model Bakery, at 106 S. Howard
st. Since that time there has been a
great many attempt to produce this

the original. To those who liked the
flavor of the first and only New
England Bread baked in Akron, will
say that you can get the same kind
of 'bread, "made of the same mater
ials ah was tlie first you liked so well,
if you will golor send to the 'Model

Court News.
.
Buel J. Fish was lined $25 and
costs by Judge Kohler Friday after
noon. An indictment was returned
against Fish, charging him with
shooting with intent to kill and
wound. Prosecutor Wanamaker rec
ommended that this be withdrawn
and that the. defendant he allowed to
plead guilty to assault and battery.
The court acted on the Prosecutor's
recommendation.
It will be remembered that Fish
shot and wounded Harvey Spangler,
sometime ago, in the latter's home
in Boston township. Both men were
intoxicated. Fish has claimed that
lie feared Spangler intended to in
jure him. An officer from Brooklyn
was present. He would have testi
fied, tho defense said, that Spangler
was a dangerous man when under
the influence of liquor.
Judge Kohler said it was a most
difficult task to do justice in the case.
Fish, who is an old man, is without
property and the questionof his fu
ture welfare is a serious one. The
court said that his return to Boston
would he followed by heavy drink
ing. A brother who was present was
asked if he could not care for Fish.
He gave an evasive answer to the
question. C. T. Grant, gurdian of
Fish will try to look after him.
Judge Kohler asked the prisoner
what he expected to do if released.
Fish, who evidently has the im
pression that he is still wealthy, re
plied that he whould go into the real
estate business. As he has neither
lands or money the outlook for him
is not an encouraging one.
Four Times Married.
An Inquest, on the lunacy of Hiram
L. Morey, was held at the unfortu
nate man's home Friday by Judge
Anderson. Morey, who is 48 years
of age, believes that he is sick. Dr.
W. W. Leonard testified that he was
not. Morey was found in bed. He
was adjudged insane. The alleged
lunatic was. .married when IB years
of age. Since then he has hnd three
other wives, being divorced from
the last.
Probate Refused.
Judge Anderson refused Friday to
probate the will of Dr.'EHzur Hitch
cock. The document was drawn by
the doctor at his office March 4, 1899.
