"My mother and Sllns Lord," ho SCRANTON
said, "own and llvo on properties
thnt adjoin each other. The prop
erty my mother owns was formerly
that of Mrs. I. L. Burcher, who was
formerly Mrs. Abner Hill. There la
an unsettled dispute as to the bound
ary line between theso properties
which has been handed down for
many years, Silas claiming the line
ns surveyed encroaches on his prop
erty. A. V. Tyler made a survey
and staked the line over 10 year3
ago.
"This survey of Tyler did not sat
isfy Silas. It came within seven
feet of my mother's house, which
was then owned by Mrs. Hill, now
Mrs. Burcher. Lewis Collins, the
county surveyor, was then engaged
to run the lines, and his survey, it
seems, brought the line within llvo
feet of my mother's property. This
evidently was not satisfactory, for
Engineer Sandercock was next era
ployed to make a survey, and this
confirmed the one made by Mr.
Tyler. Later, however, ho found he
had made a mistake, so he resur-
veyed and In so doing brought the
line further over onto mother's
property and within three feet of
her house
On the day of the fight, July 12,
Sam Reed and I started to lay
tile drain from my mother's house
to the highway. We commenced to
dig a ditch which, we claim, would
come within the three-foot limit,
Silas and William had gone to work
for Mr. Tyner, but they got a tele
phone call that Sam and I were dig
ging the ditch. They hurried home
and as soon as they came a war of
words started
"I. was in the ditch, which was
about 15 Inches deep. William
came up with a hoe that had an un
usually thick handle. He hit me
and I tried with my arm to ward
off the blow. The hoe handle
crashed down on my head, cutting
my hat. I got a skull wound, too.
I was momentarily stunned and at
that moment William Jumped down
on me and commenced to rain blows
on my face. He gave me a black
eye, too.
"Well, at this point mother heard
the fracas and ran out of the house.
She tried, of course, to protect me
from William's onslaught. Silas
came up then and hit her on the
back and head. Mother claimed she
was on her own property at the time
and was simply trying to protect me.
"Just then Reed came up with a
hoe and began to attack Silas. I
wns in the trench, partly, with Wil
liam on top of me. I finally suc
ceeded in turning William over and
getting on top myself, and at that
ho agreed to stop.
"Mother did not see Reed and
Silas lighting, for her time nnd at
tention were taken up with my fight
with William. She did not strike
nnybody, at any time or In any way,
but she says that while William and
I wore fighting sho picked up a hoe,
Intending to hit William, but Reed,
after he finished his fight with Silas,
came up and took the hoe away from
her. It was then that she saw Silas

ROAD TAKES FIRST STEP TO
WARD GETTING INTO SCRAN
TON TWO ROUTES PROPOSED
AND ROTH ARE PRESENTED TO
ELECTRIC CITY COUNCIL.
A special from Scrnnton says:
The Scranton and Lake Ariel Rail
road company Thursday night took
the first step toward securing a
franchise from the city for entrance
over the streets of South Scranton
ns far as tho Spruce street bridge.
An ordinance was introduced by
Albert Davis of the Fifth ward at
tho request of tho company. The
measure provides that tho company
shall grade all streets for which
it shall obtain a franchise, and that
it shall pay for damages caused by
the grading. It Is also stipulated
that the railway company shall pave
between Its tracks and 12 In
ches on either side of tho track on
any street where the city shall pave
hereafter, or where there may be
pave at the time the streets aro oc
cupied. Upon motion of Mr. Davis,
tho ordinance was referred to the
committee on railways. Two routes
are provided for In the ordinance,
either or both of which may be used
by tho company in Its plans. One
route starts at Front street, along
Front to Meadow avenue, along
Meadow to Mooslc street, along Moo-
slc street to PIttston avenue, along
Plttston avenue to the Spruce street
bridge, where lt is proposed to gain
tho use of the tracks of the Scran
ton Railway company.
The other route the promoters
have In mind begins at the intersec
tlon of Moosic street nnd Stone ave
nue. after making the trip from
Plttston avenue to Mooslc street.
From Mooslc street the route runs
along Stone avenue to Hemlock
street, to South Qulncy avenue, along
Willow street to Crown avenue,
along Crown avenue to River street
to the old road leading to Lake
Scranton, along that road to the In
tersection of the old abandoned Cobb
road, and thence to the Hill prop
erty. The management must file an ac
ceptance of the franchise within 60
days of its approval by the mayor,
and must deposit a bond of $10,000
to ensure faithful performance of the
conditions contained therein.
