Two Suits Against Ex Sheriff Brown of East Hampton
Former Middlesex County sheriff Thomas S. Brown is named as defendant in two suits. One by his wife Elizabeth C. Brown alleges false statements to physicians led to her commitment to a state asylum and an assault on a Middletown train trip in 1913. The other by sister-in-law Abby C. Curtiss claims an assault during an attempted intervention. Mrs Brown seeks $5,000 damages and Ms Curtiss $1,000.
