    3. From: "1872 Historical Directory of Sussex Co., NJ" Page 25: "THOMAS P. GUSTIN, son of Colonel GUSTIN, becoming financially embarrassed while in business with his brother in New York, returned to Augusta. He was followed by his dreditors who requested Coroner EPHRIAM GREEN to apprehend him. GUSTIN, who was seated in the store, knowing the object of GREEN, sprang over the counter and seizing a pistol, fired at him, the ball entering his leg near the knee. For sometime his life was dispaired of, but after painful illness he recovered. GUSTIN immediately escaped to the West." Can anyone expand on this? Thank you, Sheryl Gunderman Robinson
