Centennial Been Cont
Kangaroo Court |
Caused Endless
Amusement Satur.
The Brothers of the Brush, in an
effort to enforce the “law”, certain-
ly gave endless amusement to in=-
dividuals and the public as well on
Saturday afternoon and evening.
Can you imagine men like Deputy
Sheriff and former Police Officer
and Burgess Elmer Zerphey; our
present boro Police Chief Park
Neiss and many other dignitaries
in jail? Well, that is exactly what
happened here. But, it was all for
a good cause and everybody enoyed
the fun.
Members of the Brothers of the
Brush held Kangaroo court to mete
out punishments to “victims” who
were charged with one of these of-
fenses; failure to display member-
ship badge; improper display of
badge; resisting arrest; and not be-
ing a member of the Brothers of
the Brush. This latter charge was
inclusive enough to warrant the
arrest of anyone apprehended.
And the apprehendings were fre-
quent and numerous.
Harry Grube, Landisville post-
master, was picked up while shop-
ping and lodged in the ‘coop’, gro-
ceries and all. Sol Barr's faithful
dog was jailed with him. Burgess
Fish paid the penalty of all offend-
ers, as did Chet Armstrong, Clayt
Newcomer, George Brown, Minnie
Hipple and many others who were
all confined together, picked up
the jail and walked away.
Court was held on the sidewalk
in front of the First National Bank.
It included a portable jail, a judge,
complete with official mallet, and
a jury made up of spectators who
were present at the time of any
individual trial. The three judges
who sat at different times the
court was in session were Samuel
Dock, Ammon Hoffer and Charles
Bennett, Jr. All prisoners were, of
course found guilty.
Four specially uniformed police-
men made the arrests which net-
ted the court more than $200 in
fines. They were Oliver Snyder,
Jr., Robert Kunkle, Robert Nissley
and George Albert.
Non-members of the Brothers of
the Brush were forwarned of more
uncomfortable moments when an-
nouncement was made that the
court will reconvene next Satur-
day afternoon and evening.
Members of the Brothers of the
Brush are men of the community
who have entered the beard-grow-
ing centest of the coming centen-
nial celebration during the last
week of this month.
