Formal Proclamation: Sheriff EDGERTON today issued the following proclamation, a notice to the foreign-born residents of Genesee county: I, Freeman EDGERTON, sheriff of Genesee county, deem it wise in the present crisis, in this formal proclamation, to assure all residents of foreign birth that the United States having become actively involved in the great European War, no citizen of any foreign power resident in Genesee county need fear any invasion of his personal or property rights so long as he goes peaceably about this business and conducts himself in a law-abiding manner. I take this formal means of declaration to all foreign-born residents that they will be protected in the ownership of their property and money and they will be free from personal molestation, so long as they obey the laws of the state and nation and the ordinances of the communities in which they reside. I urgently request that all our people refrain from public discussion of questions involved in the present crisis and maintain a calm and considerate attitude toward all, without regard to their nationality. Let it be understood that every citizen owes undivided allegiance to the American flag, that he is expected to loyally fulfill all obligations which citizenship and residence impose upon him, and that any act, however slight, tending to give aid or comfort to the enemy, is treason,, for which severe penalties are provided, in addition to that punishment which public opinion inflicts upon the memory of traitors in all lands.

Hi, I'm hoping someone can explain to me why someone would be arrested for a disorderly house. What was the "then" definition of a disorderly house? I thought at first it was because these persons were not married, yet living as man and wife, but in one of the cases it refers to "his wife", so I ruled that out. Would it be possibly be the equivalent of today's term, "domestic disturbance"? Also, I don't understand the charge of "being inmates". Meaning, too many persons living in a given abode? Being held by force? Could someone please explain these terms to me? (highlighted below) Thanks, Dianne (this is when I wish Mom or Grandma were still around to ask!) :) in reference to: RAID TWO ALLEGED DISORDERLY HOUSES; SEVEN UNDER ARREST Two alleged disorderly houses were raided by the police, one at 443 Clinton avenue north by Special Officer DOHERTY of the Franklin street station, and the other at 306 Meigs street by Special Officer SCHNEIDER and Patrolmen YOKEL and MORPHET of the University avenue station. Walter SOSNOWICZ, 31, 406 Hudson avenue, and Mabel FREDERICK, 25, 80 Plymouth avenue south, were arraigned in City Court this morning on charges of being keepers at 443 Clinton avenue north. They pleaded not guilty and their cases were adjourned to July 22. John CASEY, 27, 93 Elm street, pleaded not guilty to a charge of permitting his wife to remain in an alleged disorderly house and his case was adjourned to July 22. His wife was charged with being an inmate and she pleaded not guilty. Her case was adjourned until the same date. Helen CASELLO, also known as Ruth DECKER, 22, did not appear on a charge of maintaining an alleged disorderly house at 306 Meigs street and her bail of $100 was forfeited. Lawrence MARINO, 35, 180 Davis street, known by the police as "Scullyy." and Peggy MALONE, 20, 306 Meigs street, pleaded not guilty to charges of being inmates and the cases were adjourned until July 28.

William H. COON, FASANO's lawyer, was assisted in the case by William E. WEBSTER, who is also attorney for the Italians in their efforts to secure their pay from the Lyons Sugar Refining Company. Mr. WEBSTER said that neither the Italians nor the Lyons company wanted to proceed against FASANO and that he could see no use in holding him. The district attorney said that as FASANO had admitted that he had committed a crime it was his duty to find out what that crime was and secure a conviction if possible. * BUYING OF FERTILIZERS. Sub-committee of three named by Grangers' County Committee. Members of the Grangers' county purchasing committee were in session nearly five hours in the supervisors' room at the Court House yesterday afternoon.

Finally a sub-committee of three on fertilizers was appointed. It will meet on Wednesday morning and will report to the entire committee at a meeting to be held at the Court House on Thursday afternoon, when it is expected that an order will be placed. * COMING MUSICAL EVENT.

Shakespearean Actor was long leading man for Mme. MODJESKA. John E. KELLERD, who will appear in "Hamlet" at the Opera House tomorrow evening, was for several years leading man for Mme.

Rochester, Monroe, NY Democrat & Chronicle July 15, 1925 SHOTS HAVE NO TERRORS FOR ELUSIVE YOUTH WHO ESCAPED ISLAND PRISON Gains Freedom By Long Swim From Randall's to Mainland — Comes Back To Home Town and Has Many Narrow Squeaks From Capture — Changes Clothes in Church Somewhere in Rochester is hiding a young man, 18 years old, who is laughing up his sleeve at the Rochester police department, its detectives and in fact all its officials and those of Randall's Island who are frantically trying to capture him. He is Vincent DeAOUN, 361 Jefferson avenue. Young DeAOUN escaped from Randall's Island in as bold a fashion as any recorded in that institution. But he has added to the official chagrin down there by taking with him a set of keys. If the don't find him soon they will have to change all the locks at the institution. Why would they have to change all the locks? Suppose this man should have duplicate keys made and send them to his friends at the institution? There would be very few boys left at Randall's Island. Perhaps, only the officials would be left. "Pulls Fast One" on Grocer The attention of police was first directed to young DeAOUN when he "pulled a fast one" on a Plymouth avenue grocer. He telephoned to the grocer stating that the grocer's wife was seriously ill and wanted him home at once. The grocer ran home. While he was gone DeAOUN helped himself to the cash drawer contents. He was treated mildly for this offense. He won the sympathy of the police with his pleasing personality. He didn't appear like the average bad boy. He was well dressed, had a winning personality and used good English. He said he was sorry and the police believed him. A short time later he stole an automobile belonging to Melba GRAY, Chili avenue. Police also said at the time he obtained goods from large department stores in a credit scheme. He pleaded guilty and was sentenced to Randall's Island. He took his sentence in a nonchalant manner. He was well dressed and looked more like a young student on his way to school when he went to the island. Eighty Weeks Before Parole When he arrived the authorities there gave him 80 weeks to stay at the island before he could get parole. He winced when he heard the decision. It is understood he was expecting about 20 weeks. Undoubtedly he was peeved and immediately was making plans to escape. However, he did not let the officials there know he was peeved. He took the decision calmly and set about to be a model prisoner. DeAOUN'S apparent straight-forward manner won him immediate friends among the officials and they gave him a "front office job." He is a well educated young fellow and is a capable stenographer. It is understood that the officials at the island were planning to make him a stenographer with full pay of a stenographer. He would have had a nice sum at the expiration of his term. All this meant nothing to young DeAOUN. His mind was on getting out. Swims To Freedom The opportunity presented itself one day. The bookkeeper was not looking and he obtained the keys to the institution. He walked over to the doors, unlocked them and walked past two guards and vanished. It is reported that the two guards who allowed him to walk past them have been suspended. Then DeAOUN had to swim. He did. One report has it he swam for an hour. He reached shore and made his way through New York to White Plains. If he took one course it led him to a point near the "hard-boiled New York harbor police station." This group of New York police is picked to handle the toughest characters around the big city, those who inhabit the harbor vicinity. In White Plains the authorities learned he stole a machine and then in the face of all the possible hardships, made his way back to Rochester, where all the detectives know him. Since he returned to his haunts it is known he has made St. Monica's Church choir loft one of his headquarters. There he changed clothes at various times when he presumed that the police heard about the attire he was wearing. Shots Fail To Stop Him One day a detective was chasing him. He saw the officer had a gun in his hand. DeAOUN heard the report of the revolver. He looked around and saw the officer was pointing it in the air. Then he kept right on running and escaped. The youth has been seen wearing white knickers, a blue shirt and a fancy sweater. If one did not know him he would easily pass for a young college man home on vacation. But his actions at present prove to the police that he is a desperate young man of unusual nerve, daring, ready to take every chance to avoid an obstacle which might lead him back to Randall's Island. The authorities want him and want him bad. They want those keys just as much as they want him. **** BODY RECOVERED FROM NIAGARA RIVER Niagara Falls, July 15 - The body of a man supposed to be that of James FORGIE, 55, prominent Buffalo merchant, was recovered from the Niagara river at Lewiston today.

Democrat & Chronicle Rochester, NY Monroe Co. July 20, 1925 JEALOUS SUITOR STABS BROTHER AND SISTER-IN-LAW IN STREET; REPULSED BY HER, POLICE TOLD. Crazed with jealousy over his sister-in-law, according to the police, Antonio DE ALESSANDRO, 31 years old, giving his address as No. 34 John street, last night attacked his brother Cesido DE ALESSANDRO, and the latter's wife, Lena, in the street near their home, No 485 State street, stabbing them several times with a stiletto. DE ALESSANDRO, as his victims collapsed on the sidewalk, attempted to flee, but was captured by Fire Lieutenant WILSON of Truck No. 2 who happened to be passing. He was turned over to Sergeant BURNE and officers HARGATHER and ROBERTS, of the Exchange street station and a charge of assault, second degree, placed against him. Investigation revealed that for several months Antonio has been annoying his sister-in-law. He was living with the couple until several weeks ago when he was requested to move by his brother. Last night, the police declare, Antonio met his sister-in-law as she alighted from a trolley at State street and Lyell avenue. He attempted to make an engagement to meet her, but she repulsed him and went to her home, telling her husband what had happened, police were told. About a half hour later she left her home with her husband and had gone only a short distance when Antonio rushed up to the couple, knife in hand. In the scuffle Antonio was severely cut about the hands. The woman was stabbed twice in the back while her husband received deep gashes about the face and neck. They were taken in the ambulance to Dr. Lee's Hospital, Lake avenue, where late last night their condition was reported as not serious. Antonio, who evidently had been drinking, according to the police, was locked up for the night to await arraignment in City Court his morning. GIRLS WITH ONE-PIECE SUITS BARRED FROM ONTARIO BEACH; IDEAL DAY ATTRACTS THRONG. Mistaking Ontario Beach for the sunny shores of Deanville, four slim young girls made their appearance yesterday in one-piece bathing suits, attractive but not permissible. The wary beach guards, tired of removing ball players and luncheon parties from the premises, turned their attention to the new diversion. Admidst many protestations from the girls and comments from the other bathers, the offenders were politely escorted from the beach and urged to don conventional clothing. Most of the five thousand present at the beach were bathing. With the air at 80 degrees and the water at 76, conditions were ideal and bathhouses full. Submitted by: Patricia Stillwell Mims

Rochester, Monroe, NY Democrat & Chronicle July 15, 1925 DEFENDED WOMAN AND MAY DIE Farm Hand Assaulted By Furious Husband Jule Townsend Interfered When Albertis Beadle Attacked Wife, It Is Said — Beadle in Jail and Townsend in Monroe County Hospital For Treatment — Warrant Sworn Out by Mrs. Beadle A matrimonial argument may have serious consequences if the condition of Jule TOWNSEND of Straight Lake, Hamlin, who interfered to save a wife from physical harm, does not improve at the Monroe County Hospital. He is said to be in a serious condition. TOWNSEND was thrown to the ground and kicked in the stomach by Albertis BEADLE, 61, farmer, of Straight Lake, according to the story TOWNSEND told Deputy Sheriffs FOSMIRE, SCHEY, CASE and FAGAN, who investigated.

The warrant was sworn out by Mrs. Anna BEADLE, 47, wife of the alleged assailant. The case was adjourned to July 16.

Infuriated, BEADLE attacked TOWNSEND, knocked him down, and jumped on him, authorities say Dr. J. L.

Democrat & Chronicle Rochester, NY Monroe Co. March 11, 1929 Mrs. Lucy PHILLIPS is 95 years old today. Pump at Main East and St. Paul Streets Service Hotel in Early Days, Says Woman Who Remembers When Indians Roamed Freely, Numerously in City. While she celebrates her ninety-fifth birthday today, Mrs. Lucy Charles PHILLIPS of 28 Poplar Street, will not look in any book having pictures of Rochester in the first years it was a city, for she carries those pictures in memory. Her age is the same at the city's. Born here, she remembers when there was a pump over a well at Main and St. Paul Streets. On the north side of that intersection she lived with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. John CHARLES, in the Franklin House, a family hotel, and they drew water from tat well. She attended No. 10 and No. 14 Schools, when the children all learned to write with quill pens. They made their own copy books she said, folding foolscap paper to the right size. One of the clearest memories Mrs. PHILLIPS had yesterday was of the historic flood of 1865. She recalled how a man living somewhere near to Rochester had a horse caught in the swelling current of the Genesee Rivers as it flowed down, and offered $25 to any one who would rescue it for him. Not many cared to take the chance of going into the rising flood, but one did and got the horse while it was still swimming. Mrs. PHILLIPS remembers. After the flood had abated, she says they found a large log on the floor of Reynolds Arcade. She then lived in the old Rochester House, where steps now lead down from Exchange Street by the bed of the old Erie Canal, present bed of the subway. She said that horse cars were running to Carthage when she was a child, and that Carthage was nearly as large as Rochester. Mrs. PHILLIPS said that her father was constable, and was tax collector for three years. Her father and mother had come here from Malone, arriving on June 4, about a year before she was born. She remembers the old wooden bridge that crossed the river where the Democrat and Chronicle now is, and also when no coal was burned in Rochester. Asked the name of the first president she remembers, she replied "Jackson--much mourned when he died." Mrs. PHILLIPS was twice married and both husbands were in the Civil War. The first, David BENJAMIN, whom she married in 1859, was killed in the battle of Fredericksburg. Her second, Isaiah PHILLIPS serviced on a Federal transport. He lived until 22 years ago. Until about three years ago, Mrs. PHILLIPS kept house for her son, Edwin Eugene, now of Clarissa Street, and until six years ago kept house both her sons, the latter, William Wallace PHILLIPS, who with his wife, now makes a home for her. Until a year or more ago, when she had trouble with her eyes, Mrs. PHILLIPS was a constant reader. If alone at noon she would sometimes omit luncheon to read. When her sons were eating she would often read from books to them while at table. She now goes up and down stairs every day. She is fond of automobile riding. Mrs. PHILLIPS says she remembers when Indians were quite numerous here, and visited the white people's homes to sell baskets, slippers and little beaded bags. She has a brother, William, who owned two boats on the Erie Canal. Later he went to the Atlantic Coast and made his home so much of the time on the water that all his children excepting one were born on boats. On one trip over the Hudson River, a daughter arrived, and he named her "Mary Hudson CHARLES." So far as the family has learned, this brother, now 85 years old, still runs his own boat in New York Harbor. George P. KLEE, well known Rochester jeweler, for 34 years a member of the firm of Klee & Groh, died yesterday morning at his home, 5 Burkard Place. Mr. Klee was 62 years old. Funeral services will take place Thursday morning at 9:15 o'clock at St. Boniface Church. Interment will be made in Holy Sepulchre Cemetery. Mr. KLEE was born in Rochester on June 26, 1866. In 1895, with the late Albert GROH, he founded the jewelry business of Klee & Groh with a store at Clinton Avenue North and Gorham Street. In 1907 the firm moved to 214 Main Street East, and six years later went to the present location, with enlarged quarters, at 143 Main Street East. Mr. GROH died in 1925, since which time Mr. KLEE had carried on the business as sole proprietor. Mr. KLEE was a member of the Rochester Retail Jeweler's Association, B.P.O.E., Knights of Columbus, Chamber of Commerce, St. Herman's Society and the St. Boniface Club of St. Boniface Church. He is survived by his widow, Mrs. Margaret Burkard KLEE; two sons, Louis G. and Eugene W. KLEE; a daughter, Mrs. J. Emmett MURPHY; three brothers, Joseph, John and Henry J.

Democrat and Chronicle Rochester, NY August 12, 1917 page 19 SLACKER MARRIAGES Point Should Have Been Made Clear at Early Date. Louisville Courier Journal Announcements as to the meaning of eleventh-hour marriages upon the situation of registered men have indicated vacillation in the office of Provost Marshall General Crowder upon a point that should have been made clear as soon as the draft law was enacted and long before men were called for the first increment of the draft army or enrolled as between the maximum and minimum ages. Obviously all marriages contracted after the registration in which the bridegroom figures as a man asking exemption because of the dependence of his wife are marriages entered upon in the hope of defeating the draft law. So complete is the public's knowledge of the conditions under which the army is being raised that few young women are in ignorance of the fact that men between the maximum and minimum ages who are able-bodied are expected to be ready for military service. The young woman who aids a slacker in his effort to evade service incurring dependency upon him in expectation of his pleading her dependency as a reason for exemption deserves no consideration. Morally regarded her action is reasonable, socially regarded her marriage is a union lacking the moral quality that dignifies or sanctities marriage in ordinary circumstances. Many marriages in which the man is of military age but will not ask exemption are being contracted. All honor to the bride and the bridegroom in such cases. Their patriotism and self-sacrifice are a shining example. In sharp and depressing contrast are the deliberate slacker marriages. They are mere liaisons entered upon to defeat the law designedly to injure the country willfully and to give the enemy aid and comfort rather than sacrifice convenience to the cause. DON'T WORRY Many Things May Happen Before a Grave in France Is Needed You need not worry. If you are registered for select service you have two alternatives: Either your "key" number is drawn for the first draft or it is not. If not, you need not worry. If it is, you have two alternatives. Either you are exempted or you are not. If exempted, you need not worry. If not, you have two alternatives. Either you are called into training camp or you are not. If not, you need not worry. If you are, you have two alternatives. Either you are sent to France or you are not. If not, you need not worry. If you are, there are two alternatives. Either you fight or you don't fight. If you don't, you need not worry. If you do, you have two alternatives. Either you get hurt or you don't. If you don't, you need not worry. If you do, there are two alternatives. Either you recover or you don't. If you do, you need not worry. If you don't, you will never need to worry again. And then again, the war may be over before Christmas. Keep your eye on the effect of President Wilson's embargo. Submitted by: Patricia Stillwell Mims
