GREENFIELD, Mass, July 29— Admittedly happy over the acquittal he “always was confident” would re- sult, Thomas E. Elder, former dean of Mount Hermon School, turned to- day to the quiet of his New Hamp- shire chicken farm, cleared of the State's charge that he threatened to kill Stephen Allen Norton, his former colleague.

The jury. in four hours’ delibera- tion, acquitted Elder on both counts, assault with intent to kill and assault upon Norton with & gun, putting him in fear of bodily harm. Conviction on both counts would have meant a maximum 10-year imprisonment.

Pert and pretty Evelyn Dill, the | stenographer, took the witness stand | to make a flat denial of Norton's | “peep-hole” testimony. Elder likewise denied it on the stand. He testified that Norton prayed to “God and me” for forgiveness for his “false accusation” and said Norton de- scribed himself as “a sort of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, & snooper.” Norton returned to the witness stand to deny he ever had made such a re- traction, or ever described himself as a dual personality.
