Philadelphia Inquirer - September 15, 1915 Man Sent to Hospital, Wife to Jail, When Aim of Latter at Howling Animal Fails The bad aim of Mrs. Ella Taylor, aged 25 years, of 3010 Pleasant street, East Camden, resulted in lots of trouble and incidentally sent her husband, William, aged 49 years, to Cooper Hospital, with a severely cut head. The woman was arrested and spent several hours in jail before it was all explained. It was early yesterday morning that the Taylors were awakened by the howling of a neighbor's dog. Mrs. Taylor procured a stone and attempted to hurl it through the window. As a result, Taylor was struck over the left eye. Under the impression that he had been fatally wounded, Taylor rushed from the house in his night clothes and yelled over the fence to his neighbor, Solomon Carpenter. The latter took the man to the Third District station house. There was so much excitement that the police thought there had been an attempt on Taylor's life. So while the man was sent to Cooper Hospital the wife was arrested. Before Recorder Stackhouse the truth of the matter came out and husband and wife were dismissed.
