THREAT LETTER RECEIVED DY
EVANGELIST "BOB" JONES
Note Warning Revivalist Out of
Scranton Received Through Mail
Inspector Shnrpstcen Put On
tho Job.
'Threatening him with death if he
does not leave the city by tomorrow
night, a letter scrawled in pencil and
bearing the signature "Death" was
received Monday by "Bob" Jones,
the evangelist, who has been attack
ing vice in nightly sermons In Scran
ton for the last two weeks. The lat
ter Is postmarked "Scranton, Janu
ary 18," and was delivered by a
mall carrier to the evangelist at the
Holland Hotel.
On receiving the missive the evan
gelist looked suspiciously at the
scribbling on the envelope. Tho di
rections were simply "Evangelist
Jones, City." The word evangelist
was misspelled and on tearing open
the envelope the page of letter writ
ten in the same scrawly .hand, said:
"Evangelist Jones:
Take, notice that we are warning
you to leave our town, ibuslness is
rotton enough without you closing
it up. We want you to leave 'by
Wednesday or we will get you. We
are sick of having you .Preach here.
Remember get out,
"Death."
The words "leave" and "death"
were underscored.
"Bosh," cried the evangelist,
crumbling the paper in his hand. On
second thought he concluded not to
destroy It, but to put it into the
hands of Postofflce Inspector Sharp
steen of Honesdale for his investi
gation. "If this coward who is afraid to
come out In the open and sign his
name, thinks that I am going to
run, he's mistaken. I've been
threatened 'before by this sort of
animal and have met a typo more
ferocious than this scoundrel who
has not only committed a crime
against me, but has violated the laws
of the United States. If he thinks he
is going to get me, he's mistaken.
I'll get him. I'm after him and be
fore I stop I'll drive him either in
to the penitentiary or into the At
lantic Ocean. I'm too old a cat to
bo played with by a kitten, and I've
seen this sort of chap before. I have
faced the moonshiners of Tennessee,
the feudists of the Kentucky moun
tains, and if this man wants to find
me he'll get me any night this weok
at tho Asbury church In Green
Ridge. If he comes, I'll take him
out behind the church and do my
best to convince him that letter writ
ing is not his natural forte."
Whereat Evangelist "Bob" placed
the letter In the envelope and started
for the Green Ridge church.
The evangelist was asked if such
letters were common in his mall. He
said that he received many letters
some commending him, some criticis
ing him, but he said that this is the
first time he 'has over been threaten
ed. The following were Scranton visi
tors on Wednesday: Mrs. A. T.
Searle, Mrs. J. D. Whitney, Miss C.
Lou Hardenbergh and Miss Anna
Brown.

REPAlU
FIRST WEEK OF COURT CLOSED
TO-DAY
Last Case Finished Tills Afternoon
All Small Cases This AVcek
Three Sentences Pronounced.
The first case to be taken ud on
the trial list on Tuesday morning was
inai oi jsoeney SKinner against Jas.
Dolsen. Tho dispute is over a piece
of land in Damascus township near
Milanvllle formerly owned 'by Jennie
Dolsen. The land came Into the pos
session of her brother, James Dol
men, upon a Kneriff's deed. Mr.
Sklulner owned the tract of land ad
joiningvana !t seems as though the
two traeus overlap at a point near
an old stone-. fence. Mr. Skinner had
cut timber o'fr'sWhat he alleges to
be his land, that IS, on the east side
of this stone fence.-. Mr. Dolsen
claims that Mr. Skinner cut timber
on both the east and west sides of
tho fence. The action was brought
to recover $2G5 which is the amount
of the agreement 'for the lumber.
The jury which tried tho case was
composed of the following: Jacob
Collum, of Paymyra; F. F. Conrad,
of Scott; Wm. H. Doyle, of Preston;
Ward Frey, of Dreher; E. H. Huber,
of Damascus; Leon Katz, of Hones
dale; John Mangan, of Texas; Job
R. More, of Lehigh; F. O. Rickard,
of Cherry Ridge; W. J. Seymour, of
.Berlin; J. H. Smith, of Bethany; and
J. T. Schleupner, of Paupack. Eber
ley Skinner, the defendant, was rep
resented by Attorneys Wm. H. Lee
and E. C. Mumford, while the plain
tiff, James Dolsen, was represented
by Attorney 'R. M. Stocker.
The plaintiff called 'five witnes
ses. Isaac L. Sandercock testified
to having made a survey of the Dol
sen lands and the adjoining lines and
that he had made a draft of it. The
draft was presented as evidence and
explained to the jury 'by Mr. Sander
cock. He told of the stone fence
running along the east line of the
Dolsen tract but not exactly on the
line. He said that he knew when
the timber had been cut but didn't
remember having seen any cut on
the west side of the stone fence
which would have been on Dolsen's
land. Cross-examined Mr. Skinner
furnished me with a deed of his land
but I did not survey with it. Was
trying to determine the east line of
No. 125. We found the west line
of No. 124 and the two should join
but didn't try to locate Skinner's
land by the survey. The northeast
corner was determined by a grapo
vine corner. The stone wall had
been there for about 25 years to my
knowledge.
Eberley Skinner was sworn:
Am C9 years old and was born In
Milanvllle about two miles from the
piece of land In dispute. Know
every ioot of the land. Stone fen a
has been there over fifty years.
hired timber cut on east side of this
wall on my own land. I was present
when Mr. Sandercock made the sur
vey, also several others. The grape'
vine' corner was always there. My
father, who lived on the place show
ed It to me. Was on top of a ledge.
I have deed to this piece of land
from R. M. Calkins.
Emit Calkins sworn: Testified to
knowing of the existence of the stone
wall as he said he had known it to
have 'been there 25 years. Said tim
ber was cut on east side.
John Sherwood sworn: Live in
Milanvllle about two miles from
property In dispute. Know of stone
wall. 'Has been there at least 40
years. Timber was cut on east side
of the wall. Stated that he was a
brother-in-law of Mr. Skinner and
also step-father of Mr. Dolsen.
Edward Hempstead sworn: Testi
fied to having cut the timber for Mr.
Skinner in Damascus township on
Feb. 19, of last year. Cut it on east
side of wall. Wall, didn't run down
to river but north and south. De
fense rests.
For the plaintiff the first witness
was George Heller who took the
stand. He stated that he was a sur
veyor and had been for 25 years.
He produced a map which he said he
had drawn of the region in dispute.
The map was offered in evidence and
explained to the jury. Dolsen's deed
called for 70 rods but we surveyed
it 90 rods. It also calls for tho
southeast corner of No. 125. Skin
ner's deed calls for same corner.
The wall is not exactly on the line
some places being 2 or 3 rods off
the line. Never saw the corner made
by a grape vine. The southeast
corner I found when I surveyed it in
1892. Found several corners along
the line. The timber was cut west
of the line in dispute.
James Dolsen sworn: Am defend
ant in this case. I know of the stone
wall and lines in question, but have
no knowledge of a grape vine corn
er. Nearly half of the lumber was
cut west of the line on my property.
The wall is about 15 rods long.
The agreement which was entered
into between Skinner and Jennie
Dolsen was dated May '2C, '1912, and
called for $265. The case went to
the Jury a'bout three o'clock Tues
day afternoon.
The Jury came In Wednesday
morning with a verdict in favor of
the plaintiff, Eberley Skinner, for
the full amount of the timber.
Tuesday afternoon the case of
Emma Conley against Kate McKan
na was taken up in the Wayne coun
ty common pleas. Attorney Chester
A. Garratt took up the case of the
plaintiff, Miss Conley, while SearJe
& Salmon represented the cause of
Miss McKanna the defendant! The
plaintiff claimed $36 for two weeks'
wages due her under verbal contract
made in New York city on March 18,
1911, at $18 per week, for a season
of fourteen weeks' work, as milliner
in the defendant's establishment. At
the end of twelve weeks the plaintiff
alleges she was discharged. Miss
McKanna denied having made any
contract for fourteen weeks and at
the end of twelve weeks, having no
