Only a slight wound was infli The alienists on March 27, 192: clared him sane, and he was recom- mitted to the Dedham jail. In December. 1924, the question of Vanzetti’s sanity was brought up. In January, 1925, he was taken to the Bridgwater state hospital for observation. He -was found sane in April of that year and was returned to the state prison. Moore withdrew as counsel for the two men in November, 1924, Thomas F. and N. J. had been associated drew a month later. William G.
