Saint Saens Phaéton vocals shine in Boston recital
Miss Garrison distinguishes herself as vocalist in Saint Saens Phaéton, a rarely played piece in Boston. The reviewer notes the work as dexterous Gallic piano etude in orchestra, contrasts with Liszt and Strauss symphonic poems, and praises Lalo’s Rhapsody in A major as a brilliant finale.

Lawson Denies Plea in Equity Suit Over Support
Thomas W. Lawson answered an equity suit filed by his daughter-in-law Lucie Mitchell Lawson who seeks support under an agreement for her and their four children while Arnold Lawson serves in the army. Lawson admits son Arnold, their marriage on July 28 1906, and four children's births, and that Mrs. Lawson lived at Dreamwold until Oct. 23, but asserts she has no standing and may have a legal remedy. The jury in a separate case regarding about 5000 in taxes paid to Winchester could not reach a verdict, with Lawson contending he is not a Winchester resident.
