1929 - CITY HALL ROCKED BY BOMB BLAST.

Jamestown, Jan. 15, (AP) - A bomb planted in a public rest room of the City Hall late yesterday badly damaged the interior of the room and injured two men slightly. There have been seven previous bombings in the city in recent months, this being the eighth.

Edward M. Priest, 56, was cut on the head and Howard R. Beebe, postal mail carrier, bruised when a slate partition fell on him. They were the only occupants of the room when the blast came, shaking the entire building. No one had been hurt in the previous explosions.
