Mr. Chris- tensen evidently is well versed in the fishing game and discoursed at length on the methods of landing the finny | rascals. He offered the hooks he used as evidence to show that he was not looking for the smaller fish. He started to explain the value of his hooks, but was interrupted by Mr. Gibney, who said that Judge Griswold | was an expert fisherman and under- | DISCHARGED stood the hooks and their use. The | judge denied that he was an expert, | but admitted a fondness for the sport. | Questioned by the prosecutor, the witness said he always measured his catches to see if they were of legal length.

In presenting the state's case ,Prose- cutor Gibney sald the only question ! for the court to decide was the length of the fish. Judge Griswold thought there was a reasonable doubt in his mind as to the length, and ordered the brothers discharged. umps Board Bill Cornelius T.

Pinned beneath his Packard touring car which was overturned ding from the highway into a ditch a B, member of the Burnham Moffat, a York bar, and well known politician in the metropo- prominent New a lis, was instantly killed late vesterday afternoon, his skull being crushed by the steering wheel behind which became wedged as the car toppled on the roadside. His wife and daughter, Miss Elizabeth Moffat, who were with him, were thrown clear of the somer- saulting car and they escaped with but a few minor bruises. Mr. Moffat's body was 'sent to York today and, in accordance his wishes, will be cremated. The Moffats had closed up their res- idence in New York and had started early yesterday morning for their sum- mer home in Chocorua, N. H. They intended to stop off at Boston to at- tend the commencement at Harvard, where their son is a student, and they were proceeding at high speed at the time of the accident. Mr. Moffat was at the wheel himself, his chauffeurs riding in another machine in which the family luggage was being transported. According to the other occupants of the car, the big Packard skidded on the rain-soaked macadam and got into the ditch, turning turtle. Employ the Humason factory on South- ington road came to the assistance of the unfortunate motorists. They found the attorney’s body pinned un- der the car in such a position that bars had to be used to lift the ma- chine sufficiently to permit them to extricate it. Dr. J. N. Bull was sent for, but his services were not required, life having been extinct by the time he arrived Medical Examiner C. W. Moody viewed the remains and gave permis- sion to have the body removed to the undertaking rooms of W. A. Bailey & Co.
