Woman Fugitive for Five Years

A fugitive from Justice for the past five years, Mrs. Mildred Cartledge, 
formerly of York, was arrested Monday in Lowell, Mass., by Detective Albert 
Metzel, of York, charged with throwing vitriol upon Miss Cora Krout, whom she 
suspected of intimacy with her husband, Francis J. Cartledge.  The assault took 
place on June 15, 1907, on North Broad Street, York, shortly at 3 o’clock in the 
afternoon and was witnessed by a number of persons.  Mr. Cartledge was at the 
time a superintendent at the York Knitting Mill, where Miss Krout was employed 
as an operative.
