Nan Builds House on Lot Belofljiliii ToAoitlerPaljL:
.A prety real estate tangle was revealed here .Monday when It was discovered that Loui» and Tessie Hallas. of Spring street, hare erected a dwelling house on a lot diimed by Robert Bachman, o( .Nazareth,
Hallas some time ago purchased two lots from A, J, Stofflet on what was at one time a part of the Beisel estate. Mr. Bachman pur- cl'.ased otlier lots In the same tract from another owner and his land joins^ the lots purchased by Hallas. In some inexplicable way the Hallas' built their home on a lot alleged to belong to Bachman. Ill an effort to have the matter settled amicably Mr. Bacliman of¬ fered to deed the couple the lot on which the house stands in return for one of their lots, Mrs. Hallas evidently did not uLderstand Mr. Machnian's purpose and tore up a va'uable map of the tract with w'hidi he was trying to show hef just what he would like to havo done,
Tl'.e result of t'.ie w noie affair was that the womiiii attacked Mr. Pach man aud he brought charges o' assault and siir.'ty of the peace against her in the oflice of Justice or th'* I'eace James S Fry. Tbese charges wili not he pressed, Mr. Bachman says, uiiles.s .Mr*. Hallas coniitines to make life miseraole for hini and his children.
The wdnian on Monday went to Ihe Ka.ston Courl House in an at- t-jinpt to iiive the matter str.iight- ened out ;iud iater appeared at Mr. Fry's office wher" .'he declared that she had (orn up and burned the "papers' (mapsi which the authorities wanted. After Squlro Fry had threatened to send her to jail if she didn't produce Ihem Mrs. Hallas ch.inged her mind and in a short tiirie had the torn plans of the tract in his offlce.
The case at i.resent rests {lend¬ ing the attempt of Stanley J Fehr, Nazareih attornev. to bring the parties to an amicable settlement.
