Four young men broke into the home of Johanna Sullivan, a middle aged woman, at Sandsfleld, Berkshire county, Mass., on July 9, and, taking her from her bed into the open air, brutally tarred and feathered her. The assault is thought to have been provoked by the woman’s habit of getting herself and neighbours into the local courts by petty suits.
