Henry Haggarty whose recent “af
fair” almost wrecked a council,
was yesterday again in the limelight
Having be* 1 released on Monday
from serving his jail sentence for
assault, it appears he hied him to
the restrict* 1 district where he
again started to get busy cleaning
up the victim of his former assault.
She ran to tin police station where
site sought protection, and was fol
lowed by Haggarty who shouted
that he gave himself up, thus fore
stalling any complaint from the
woman. George Bond who was on
duty began to annex Haggarty but
the latter offered resistance which
resulted in a charge of drunk and
disorderly bein : placed against him.
The woman, Tracy Browning, was
fearful of her life and did not make
a complaint. In the morning the
Chief of Police released Haggarty
on twenty dollars bail. The case
was set for two o'clock yesterday
afternoon,- but the defendant did
not show up. Thereupon George
Bond had another warrant issued
for the arrest of Haggarty charging
hint with frequenting a bawdy
house. He had not been located
when certain persons induced the
woman to file £.' complaint with the
District Attorney and Judge Fraw
ley issued a warrant for
the arrest of Haggarty,
forthwith for assault. The
federal officials were fast upon his
trail after the warrant was issued.
It is certain that Haggarty will dis
cover that monkeying with the fed
eral authorities is quite a different
thing to having some entertainment
and lodging at the city’s expense.
The woman was beaten up in dis
graceful fashion and her face is
reduced to pulp while in falling
from a blow one hand touched the
hot stove. She was a.fearful sight
after the assault and one arm wyas
in a sling.
