Widows Pension Petitions Held Up by Lack of Funds
Judge Foster announced he would not hear widow pension petitions in Freehold until the State Board of Children's Guardians provides funds to conduct investigations. Since funds await legislative appropriation, no new widows pensions will be granted in Monmouth County for some time. 105 petitions filed since September 1, 1919, include both minor and adult children scenarios across towns like Keyport, Middletown, Marlboro, Long Branch, Asbury Park, and others.

Aged Man Seriously Hurt In Collision At Fair Haven
An elderly man Henry Hicks of Pair Haven sustained a broken collar bone and serious head and body injuries when a red limousine driven by William Hinde Highlands careened into his farm wagon on the Red Bank to Fair Haven road. Hicks, 71, was thrown 25 feet and later taken to Dr Warner’s in Fair Haven, then home in serious condition. The car’s occupants included Nat Crawley, Charlie Brady, William Roach, Frank Klaus, and two others. Hinde claims Hicks lacked a tail light, hindering him from seeing the wagon. Also reported: Catherine Hickey of Everett died of apoplexy at 17 and is survived by four daughters and two sons. Chas. A. Hawkins, former deputy sheriff of Red Bank, underwent gall bladder surgery. a horse owned by William Naughton of Oceanic was shot after 35 years of service.
