“If I’d invited a man down to fight, I’d sure taken a ball bat” said Mrs. Laney of Latonia, in Covington police court today when she was testifying against Campbell Abbott, Campbell co. farmer, whom she charged with giving her a beating. The quarrel started over the borrowing of a book. Mrs. Laney, while passing the home of Abbott’s stopped in the street and engaged in an argument. Abbott took up the challenge and came on the run, striking Mrs. Laney twice, she alleged.
The case was continued until July 7 at which time Abbott will be charged with assault and battery. He was placed under $200 bond.
