He had been confined in Bloomingdale Insane Asylum at ‘White Plains. Joseph 8. Wood, as commissioner, sat with the jury, all but one of whom considered Mr. Pierce to be in his right mind. The respondent was rep- resented by Jacob S. Ruskin of New Rochelle, who, as soon as the verdict was announced, sought County Judge Young and demanded that his’ client be liberated. Mr. Pierce was brought from the insane ayslum after he had smuggled a note to his attorney. The evidence |showed that he had been committed at the instance of his son and two | daughters, who had given orders that he write to no one but them. On the witness stand Mr. Pierce told how he had written a note to his at- | torney and then waited an opportuni- ty to send it to him. His chance came when he saw a small girl seated in lan automobile on the hospital grounds. He dropped the note in her lap unob- served, and events proved that she posted it.
