BROTHERS - brothers fight - Putnam

There was trouble between Harman and J. Milton Brothers Sunday evening at Fincastle. A party of neighbors of which Harmon was a member visited the home of Milton Brothers where the mother of the Brothers’ brothers aged 84 years is lying ill.  Her name is Sarah J. Leaton and there is now a suit in Circuit Court asking that she be declared of unsound mind. The trouble between the Brothers brothers is in her estate matters. During the visit Sunday Harmon was struck in the eye by Milton and today a number of people from the Fincastle neighborhood came to this city where two affidavits were filed in the Mayors’ court against Milton Brothers, one charging him with assault and battery and the other with provoke. - kbz
