! - oo HILLED BY AUTOIST SPEEDING T0 WED Motorist Faces Manslaughter Charge at End of Wedding Trip Carl H. Weiss of Dorchester, Massachussetts, now on his wedding trip following his marriage at Wash- ington, D. C. yesterday, will be compelled to face a charge of man- slaughter at the outset of his mar- ricd life, immediately after he con- cludes the wedding trip, following the death of Jacob Bohnert, of 57 Fairview street, ‘at the New Britain general hospital yesterday. Weisse was on his way to Wash- ington in his auto Saturday when he struck Bohnert, who was riding a motorcycle along the Berlin Turnpike mnear the Willlam Webster residence. Berlin authorities say Weisse was driving towards Meriden and Bohn- ert and a truck were headed the same way. Bohnert and the truck were ahead and Weisse endeavored to pass them out by going between the motorcycle and the truck. It is thought he misjudged the distance between. However it happened, the motorcycle was truck and hurled off the road. Bohnert was picked up with a deep gash in the lower left side of the body, and practically bled to death before he reached the hospital. Prosecuting Attorney Charles F. Lewis, of Berlin, took Weisse's reg- istration number and address and released him. He probably will be brought up on a charge of man- slaughter at .the expiration of his wedding trip. Bohnert was 31 years of age and resided with his wife on Fairview street. He was born in Rocky Hill Besides the widow, his mother Mrs. s Bohnert, of 379 Ellis street, one brother Henry, and two sisters, Miss Helen Bohnert and Mrs. « Frank Seibert, also survive. Burial will take place tomorrow afternoon. Services will be held at the home of the mother. at 2 o’clock by Rev. G. M. Missirian, of the Stanley Memorial church. Interment will be in the Fairview cemetery. ' HOFFMAN ELECTED BY FIRE-FIGHTERS Named President of Firemen’s Pen- sion and Relief Association— Fred Linn, Vice-President. Captain George Hoffman of the fira department company No. 1, was elect- cd president of the Firemen's Pension and Relief association. Captain Hoff- man was formerly vice-president and succeeds William Frey. The other of- ficers of the association are: Vice- President, Fred Linn; secretary, Deputy Chief Eugene F. 6 Barnes; treasurer, Chief William J. Noble. Chief Mwle and Dpuiy Chief Barnes have held office in the association €or a number of years. Captain Michael Butler of Company No. 3, was elected association repre- sentative on the pension board to suc- ceed Lieutenant Thomas F. Higgins of Company No. 5. The association also voted to increase the initiation fees from $1 to $5. This was considered advisable on account of the recent ac- tion by which members are entitled to sick benefits and for injuries sus- tained at once, while the former ruling provided for membership six months before benefits could be derived. The association is in good financial condi- tion. The mombers voted to have June 2, of each year as dedication day for the deceased members graves. No ac- tion has been taken by the members in rezards to plans for the New Years ball, but these will be discussed later. TROLLEYS CR. HURT.
