BLILIN NEWS TRIO BOUND OVER T0 SUPERIOR COURT Meriden Authority Hears Cases of Blankenship and Nebo JUDGE RESERVES DECISION Local Judge Withholds Penalty . Case in of Mrs. Nebo—Kensington Mess is Now Cleaned Up—Berlir Items of Interest. Carl Nebo and Jesse Blankenship of Kensington were bound over to the September term of the Superior court under bonds of $3,000 by Judsge Thomas P. Dunne in the Meriden police court this morning. The men were arraigned in the €ourt on a charge of criminal assault committed both in Meriden and Berlin, on a thirteen year old girl from the Sil- ver city. The girl was the first witness on the stand. She testified that she meat Blankenship at Hanover park in Meriden on Sunday afternoon, July 3. She smiled and he smiled back at her. 1In this way, they became ac- quainted and during the remainder of the day he was very attentive to her. They went boating and motor- cyele riding as well as walking. They stayed at the park until late at night The girl claims she did not know it ‘was late for whenever she asked Blankenship the time he would say it was only 8 o’clock. Finally the park was closed and the girl was afraid to go home. Blankenship took her to Belmont's restaurant where they had something to eat and asked a waiter where they could get a room. One was finally secured at 54 State street, where the two of them went. They stayed here until 11:30 o'clock the next morning. She stated that they then went over to Hanover Park where they met Nebo. Nebo, the girl claimed, wanted to take her for a walk which he did. Upon their re- turn they came to Berlin, where the girl was kept at the home of Mr. and Mrs, Nebo in Kensington. Captain Burke's Story, Captain Burke of the Meriden »police department was the next wit- ness on the stand and told the story which was told him by Blankensnip when he was first brought here by the Berlin authorities. The story of Dlankenship told by Burke coincid- ed with that of the girl. Detective John Bunnen when called to the stand to tell what he heard Blank- enship say, practically repeated that told by the captain and the girl. Blankenship did not testify and was bound over to the superior court, Beptember term under bonds 14 #3,000. .) Nebo's Story. Carl Nebo, aged 32 years, was the next on the stand. His story was somewhat different thar that of the others. He claims that on Sunday afternoon, Blankenship came up to him and wanted to borrow a dollar. Not having a single dollar he gave him a five dollar bill, he further as- serted. Then Blapkenship wanted to borrow the motorcycle to take the girl for a ride, it was claimed. Nebo said he did not know how good a driver the young man was so he told him he could have it for ten minutes and claimed that Blankenship Xkept #t for two hours. Frank Masselli, T eied member of tne party, and B Nebo went home without Blankenship Sunday night. Nebo returnéd on Monday, met the girl.and youth, and asked if he could take the girl for a walk. Blanken- ship came to her aid and it was then said that the girl and Blankenship went out of the park in one direc- tion and Nebo in another. They all met with Mrs. Nebo later on and went to Berlin where the girl stayed until taken away Thursday night by Prose- cutor Lewis. The judge imposed the same sentence on Nebo as on Blank- enship. Juvenile Session. Following the adjournment of the regular court a juvenile session WAs held in the chambers. Here the mother of the girl told the court that she had previously drawn the court’s attention to the actions of her daugh- ter and as she had five other chil- dren she could not take proper care of her. The father, she claimed, was indisposed to the girl and did not take any interest in the welfare of the children. The Meriden probation officer told the court, however, that the mother tried her hardest to take care of them all She admitted that the girl done wrong before but was had good again umtil she met these men. After: listening to several other stories, the girl was placed on probation for 30 days beginning next Monday. The girl is not allowed to leave the house rithout the protection of her moth- ér or older sister. Any violation and she will be sent to a school for girls. Two in Berlin Court The cases of Carl Beno and Frank Masselli of Kensington were heard by Judge Griswold last night. The former was charged with harboring a minor female for immoral purposes and the latter for highway robbery. Masselli pleaded not guilty and was bound over to the September term of the superior court under bonds of $2,500. In the case of Mrs. Nebo, Judge Griswold reserved a decision followinz the outcome of the Meriden trial this morning. Her case was heard again at 3 o’clock this afternoon. Mystery Solved With the arrest of the above quar- tet, one of the greatest mysteries in the town of Kensington has been solv- ad. Prosecutor Charles E. Lewis h: been working on the case for some time and has ben without sleep for the past three nights following various clues. A great deal of credit should be given Mr. Lewis for cleaning up one of the worst places in Kensington. A visit was made to the home of Mr. and Mrs. Nebo this morning. In the room where the young girl was kept was found a large gander with several smaller geese. 4 Other Mysteries Solved The arrest of the above parties, it it is claimed, will also solve the mys- teries of several robberies which have been committed in Berlin. When the girl was found at the home, by Mr. Lewis and after a talking to by him she confided in him told to her by the men. It was as she told everything to Mr. Lewis. The men are also implicated with the highway robbery Friday, June grounds. They learned that an em- ploye of the Construction company had received his pay and decided to get it from him. This the ysucceeded in doing with the help of a It of the party was breaking into a some time ago. on the house Thursday night o'clock by Mr. John Hackett.
