Reverend CampbellLauded in America as Boston Polished Visitor

The Rev Reginald J Campbell, successor to Joseph Parker at City Temple London, has spent two weeks in the United States studying city life and praising American towns saying Boston polish would aid commercial centers. He notes Boston stands apart in finish from other towns and institutions. The article also covers a violent street clash on Pleasant Street where Patrolman Michael Sullivan was slashed by Albert Jackson. Jackson, a tall powerful man with a long police record, fought Sullivan after resistance to arrest for profanity. In the ensuing struggle Sullivan fired at Jackson, a knife flashed nine times, and Jackson fled with McIsaacs wounded. Jackson was dragged to Park Square where officers subdue him. McIsaacs was wounded by a stray bullet. Jackson will face continued court action. Sullivan’s status remains fragile.
