100 Years Ago
BOY ARRESTED FOR EXPLOSION IN SCHOOL â The discovery of a number of cartridges in the stove at the Oak Grove school, near Unionville, in Hatfield township, last week, and the explosion in the stove some three weeks ago which resulted in the serious injury of the teacher, Mrs. Abram Kulp, caused the State police, after an investigation, to arrest Albert Thiemich, aged 17, of Lansdale . The State police worked on the theory that the deed was perpetrated by someone who had a grudge against the teacher or pupils. It is stated that young Thiemich formerly attended the school, but was told that he must pay tuition when he moved into Hilltown.
