In September, 1922 the village was the scene of an altercation between a young man named White, son of L.A. White, and Leonard Head. Apparently Leonard hit L.A. White on head. At that time Head was arrested indicted and released under bond.
By December, Mr. White’s son had taken a turn for the worse. This resulted in the re-arrest of Leonard Head and his release was pending the outcome of White’s injuries.
The Sentinel story from Friday, December 1, 1922 stated, “Just
as we go to press we learn that the young son of Mr. L.A. White of the mill
village is in a serious condition resulting from a blow on the head received in
September when he and another young man, Leonard Head, had a difficulty for
which young Head was indicted and released under bond.”
“Since the recent serious condition of young White has
developed, Head has been re-arrested and is now in jail awaiting the outcome of
White’s injuries.”
I may have to check well into the 1923 papers to see what
happened to both men.
