Gibney and Second Se- Jectman N. W. Baldwin, the fence which has been erected by P. S. Mc- Mahon between his farm and that of L. S. Dean in Kensington is unsatis- factory and consequently Mr. Dean will now have one constructed and the entire expense must be borne by Mr. McMahon. There have been several controversies between the two men during the past few months, because it was claimed that Mr. McMahon's cattle strayed from his land onto that of Mr. Dean. At one time the latter kept some of the former's cows as hostage, but this matter was finally settled. Mr. Dean had repeatedly asked the New Britain man to confer with him regarding the erection of e suitable fence between the two pro- perties. The latter failed to do so it is claimed and Mr. Dean complained to the selectmen, who, as fence view- ers, visited the land and ordered Mr. McMahon to build a suitable fence. Fifteen days ago the selectmen gave Mr. McMahon that time to have the work done. Yesterday the selectmen visited the scene and found the fence 4ndesirable. Mr. Dean will now build the fence and{ according to the sta- tutes, Mr. McMahon will be Hable to three times the cost of the work. In case the bill is not paid immediately, 2 lien will be placed on the property. “Smoky John” Sent to Jail. Simeone, more commonly known as “Smoky John,” was tenced to jail for ten days on arge of drunkenness and days for vagrancy by Judge George G. Griswold in the town court this morning. The prisoner said he did npot understand the charges and Pros- ecutor Gibney, thinking an interpre- ter was needed, summoned John Lo- renz, a foreman for the Suzio com- pany of Meriden, which is doing the concrete work on Worthington Ridge, to act in that capacity. Simeone was epecifically charged with being drunk sterday and with having no visible means of support and begging. A plea of not guilty was entered The first witness was F. I. Norton.

During the court, Prosecutor Gibney sald that many been tried to get Simeone to leave town. When sober, he was quiet, but frightened several women when intoxicated.
