HEALY 50UND OVE 74 SUPERIOR COURT (Continued from Wirst Page). the day's happenings visible. Spends Day in Cell. Shortly before 0_o'clock yesterday afterppon Judge Klett , Senator-elect Edward F. Hall, Representative Richard €overt and Prank H. Holmes, called at the police station and talked with Mr. Healy. Following this conference, Mr. Healy was still in custody, but it could be seen that every effort was being bent to secure a bondsman. Clerk Joseph Hoffenberg of the Hart- ford police court arrived about 10 o'clock and the papers releasing the prisoner on bonds were filled out, Mr. Holmes acting as surety. Up to the time of his confession there had been no complaint lodged with the author- ities, according to the Hartford prose- cuting attorney. Was a Good Banker Intimate acquaintances of Mr. Healy were astounded in the confession and arrest, Many expressed themselves as sorry for him in his present predica- ment, while others claimed that had the real facts been known last week, there are local men who would have willingly come to his rescue. At the New Britaln Trust company today officials and former associates of Mr. Healy were shocked and grieved over the sudden turn of affairs in his life. Mr. Healy, with his wife, resided at 71 Vine street, up to a short time ago, when he moved to Hartford, occupying an apartment at 504 Prospect street. During the past few weeks, Mr. Healy is reported to haV¥e spent con- siderable time at the Elm Tree Inn, at Farmington. The last time he was seen in public until he appeared in police court this morni was last Thursday, when he was about the Inn a8 usual. Attaches of that hos- telry say that there has been nothing unusual in his actions during the past few days that would denote that he was in finaneial stress. Oon ¥Friday, the day of his dismissal from the bank, Mr. Healy was with local fflends at the Ryan place. The trio sat in the ‘‘George Washington room’" and chatted with the door wide open, and with-no apparent attempt to keep secrecy. He later paid his bill at the place, and announced that he was going home. Numerous cases are on record, where restitution has been made in similar offenses, and this has had a tendency to mitigate circumstances, and to secure for an accused, a lighter sentence. It ds believed that when the trial of Mr. Healy comes up these conditions may be taken into considerafion. Mr. Healy is reputed to owe a_con- siderable sum of meoney in his wvari- ous accounts with local merchants, L. A. Sprague, who s at present treasurer of the local Red Cross stated this morning that he did not know positively whether Mr. Healy had been short as far as the local cr- ganization was concerned. Mr. fHprague was chosen treasurer one month after Mr. Healy left the New Britain Trust company and he at that time asked for the books of the treasurer. They were not forthcom- ing, neither has he recejved them to date, he said this morning. Conversa- tioms with Mr. Healy had led him to believe that the Red Cross had ap- proximately $10,000 to its credit on Mr. Healy's books. Beyond that he had no records. Recelves $2,000 From Healy., A few months ago the Home Serve ice bureau of the Red Cross, which is run independent of the general or- ganization merely depending upon it foy funds, received $2,000 from the former treasurer to carry on its work, this reducing the local balance, ac- cording to conjecture, to about $8,000. The period for the “Roll Call” came about necessitating that the local authorities procure the books. Another Oheck From Healy. This they could not do, but, on November 15 they received a check trom Mr. Healy amounting to 3$8,- 075.38 which, peculiarly emough is Just the amount which the Hartford bank vice-president is alleged to have confessed he was short in the bank #accounts. The books are still in the possession of Mr. Healy. It is barely possible that Mr. Healy had not the funds to meect the obligations of his treasurership in this city and by manpulation of the books In Hart- ford secured that amount to square up here, Figures o Morning stories indicated that Mr, Healy had made good here at the exe pensg of his bank in Hartford. AMp Sprague stated that there ‘was m; Way. of knowing whether he hag chosen this method but the “9ct re- mains that the total balance due, as far as is known, corresponds exactly with the amount he is alleged to Le short. were platnly N. B. Friends to Rescue, MfT Healy was visited, as soon as hig shortage and trouble was known by several friends from New Britain notable among whom were Sepator George W.. Klett Representative Richard Covert and Senator-elect F. F. Hall and F. H. Holmes, who went bonds for him to the extent of $5,000 Senator Klett states, as Mr. Healy's counsel that restitution for the $8.000 will be made presumably by New Britain people. Mr. Holmes was o member of the Board of Public Safety at the same time as Mr. Healy several years ago. They were both deposed by Mayor Quigley. Mayor Healy was also c¢hairman of the Republican Town committec several years in addition to his Board of Safety position. Prominent in G, O, P. Circles.

On January 24, Healy was re- moved by Mayor Quigley owing to a clash over a misunderstanding on how long a policeman should hfz on the sick list. Mayor Quigley claimed that two weeks' pay for a policeman was the maximum and that he didn’t want to see a eertain policeman’s name on the list again after he had received his two weeks’ pay. The name appeared and Quigley asked for the one of the members. ) resignation of i:e board, Healy being BAZAAR AWARDS Prizes Given at Close of Church So- ciety Annual Event The following awards have been made by the committee in charge of Holy Family circle’s annual ba- .
