Long Siege Over Rent Expropriation In Tenement House
In Beverly Massachusetts in 1875 Abbott and Reynolds bought nine homes from J W Phillips. By 1878 Phillips rented a lower tenement but delayed rent, leading Farahani to warn him out. Violent resistance followed with police, crowbars, and a crowd, leaving furniture in the street. Phillips was jailed for assault. Walcott faced further clashes as police guarded the property and the Howard family remained upstairs under a rent agreement. The saga ends with ongoing legal and social contention over possession.
