Will Defend Thomas Rudden

New York, 1895

Lawyer Steinert of Hicksville has been retained to defend Thomas Rudden of Mineola, who is locked up in Harlem on a charge of murderously attacking a woman named Mrs. Tuthill and cutting her with a knife. Rudden lived with his father at Mineola, where his mother died Monday night of pneumonia. He was a brakeman on the Long Island railroad.
