Legal notices and court actions mix with local theater review
Docket entries list demurrers, rule to close proofs, and guardianship petitions in chancery and law cases, including use of minor G R Leddy in debt actions and partition suit by Helen M Beckwith. Local theater notes praise Frank E. Bike at the Opera House amid crowd observations and actor Aiken’s strong performance with Luons and Granger’s Mishap. An incident report recounts youths stealing from a freight car near U and A road, arrests, and conflicting statements. The Beecher Tilton trial coverage includes affidavits denying impropriety and a Brooklyn judge hearing. Reminders include notices to serve writs and a chancellery report for confirmation.
