A Voluble Denaby Woman.
A voluble Denaby woman, Caroline Conlan, summoned her half-brother, William H. Pearson, miner, of Denaby, at Doncaster, on Saturday, for assault.
In heated terms Conlan complained that Pearson went into her house at 10-30 p.m. on October 13, and for no reason whatever hit her in the mouth with his fist, knocking three teeth out.
When Pearson asked her a question the complainant declared, loudly : “It’s a wicked, untruth. You are a wicked liar,” and the Chairman (Mr. Mark Nokes) ordered her out of the witness box.
Without hearing further evidence the magistrates bound both parties over in £5 for 12 months, Conlan protesting vehemently, meanwhile.
The Chairman told her that if she made a bother about her own home as she had tried to do there it was a disgrace.
