Regarding the case of John Jon- hanna of New Britain, who was be- fore Justice Condell Sunday night for catching undersized pickerel at White Oak pond, Game Warden Richard Smyrk, who claims to have recelved his appointment from the state game warden, is inclined to question the story of the accused, particularly as regards his ignorance of the law. He sets forth in a communication to the Herald that the man had put the undersized fish beneath a log in his effort to hide them, proving that he was aware that his act was illegal. Having discovered him breaking the law he asserts he was in duty bound to bring him before the court, his responsibility ending when the man was arraigned. Justice Condell, who paid the game warden’'s fee of $10 out of his owr pocket, rather than deprive the family of the accused of food, had no “eriti- cism to make regarding the game warden. He was inclined' to belleve the story of the prisoner regarding hiy ignorance of the law but had to con- vict him on the evidence presented. Mr. Condell is not in sympathy with the law, however, as it forces -the court to add $10 to the cost of prose- cution for the game warden’s fee. He considers that the law is not intended for such cases but is on the statutes to preyent wilful catching of small fish and in his opinion more discretion should be exercised' by the men au- thorized to attend to its observance.

Flood to get him to reconsider his resignation as a fire commissioner the board of selectmen is holding up the appointment of his successor Members of the Hose com- pany ahd town officials as well are anxious to have Mr. Flood continue on the board.

Hart, the minorlty: member of the board of selectmen. Takes Bristol Girl for Bride. Miss Katherine S.
