Starting Sunday “MOTHER O’ MINE” FRENCH 1S ACCUSED | BY HIS SON-IN-LAW Maple Street Man Delendant in $20,000 Civil Action The hearing In a 820,000 alienation of affections sult brought by John E E rose, Mass, against the parents of his wife, Mr. and Mrs, Willlam ¢, I'rench of Maple street, this city, was con- tinued In the Rockimgham Superior court by Judge Marble, this morning. Mr. French, one of the defendants, is the principal of the Central Junior High school, Wife Left Him, The plaintiff alleges that while he was serving in the war, Mr, and Mrs, Ifrench estranged his wife by calling her to this city, Letters and en- treaties have failed to bring her back, he alleges, Married In 1918 The marringe ook place November 10, 1918, Mrs, Tucher before her mar # was Miss I‘rances Pearse, Mrs, French's daughter by a former marriage. Preferred Local Man, On the witness stand this morning the husband asserted that Mrs, I'renoh regarded his courtship ip an unfriendly light, stating that there was a New Britain man whom she preferred. The opposition continued up to the time of the marriage, he stated. Cold Home Coming. Mr, Tucker told in detail of his sur- prise when he returned after being discharged as a lieutenant from the army, and his wife refused to leave her parents and live with him. Then followed the reading of sev- eral letters which were introduced by Mr. Tucher's attorney. They caused considerable commotion and stir in the crowded court room, Happy Honcymoon Albion R. Dale, a neighbor of Mr. Tucher’s at Melrose where Mr. Tucher and his wife had spent their honey- moon, was put on the stand. He was cross ext.mined at considerable length but his story of yesterday describing the happiness of the newlyweds, mained unshaken. Tucher immediately declared that he loved his wife at the time of their marriage in New Britain and he al- ways has loved her, even to the pres- ent time. He knew of no reason why she should refuse to leave her par- ents to live with him or if he did, he certainly would not have hrought suit, He declared that his letters' and en- treaties to her had been ignored and he had at last given up Hope of ever persuading her to return. He repeat- edly denied that he knew of any rea- son why she should have left him and refuse to return. The case has attracted great in- terest especially in Deerfleld where the plaintiff was born and has lived practically all his life and where the French's have at various times re- sided temporarily. The wedding was performed at home of Mrs. Tucher's parents this city while the plaintiff was the service. The trial of the case is expected to require several days' time.

Members of the trafric urean of the Chamber of Commerce were present as the guests of the Rotary club, Waldo Clark Speaks. Waldo Clark, president of the New | Llondon Rotary club, and engineer’ of | the state pier in that city, gave an interesting talk on the developments of the pier, The pler was built out | of money authorized by the state leg- islature at a cost of 1,000,000, During the war it was turned over to the naval department, At present the pler is leased by the General Navigation company. The state, however, shares in the income received, Mr. Clark asked for the support local manufacturers and urged that they ship out of New J.on- don rather than New York or Boston, | “It was rather unfortunate for the state that the naval department had control of the pier during the war in- asmuch as the state was not given an opportunity to develop the pier at the right time,” Mr. Clark said. “IFollow- ing the war there was a big letup in shipping and as a result the pier has not heen w paying proposition,” he | added. “Tt is one of the hest In'this part of the country as it is 1,020 feet in length and is capable of holding a cargo of 25,000 tons at one time,” Mr, Clark said. Ships Tied Up. Mr. Clark asserted that, at the pres- ent time, there are 12 shipping board vessels tied up at the pier in addition | to two large passenger ships. He also stated that the navigation company is expecting more ships to be sent to the port which will remain idle. In a few words, Mr. Clark told hn\\w it would take veral years to build | up the business at the state pler but | sald that someone had to start it.| Some of the New Britain manufactur- | ers have goods to he sent to the west coast and Mr. Clark asked those pres-| An New m of | reetly and indirectly, | e ufter for ewch | shipping out of that port.

He also said that everything for which the ship is not held responsible may be covered by a marine insurance. Good Distributing Point In continuing Mr, Hashhagen said A steamship company cannot live on a one-way business and must have it both coming and golng. for this reason,” he said, “I think New Lon- don is a good distributing point. It is in a good location and Connecticut shippers should make use of it." Local Viewpoint President Leon Sprague called upon W. H. Cadwell, who is a member of the roads, rivers and bridges commit- tee, to state the viewpoint of the local manufacturers on the problem of shipping out of New London. Mn Caldwell stated that he has watched the development of the New London pier and realizes the importance of He gave some figures in which he showed that it was cheaper to ship goods from New London to the west than it was from either New York or Boston. He also made an appeal to the local manufacturers to send their goods through the state port.
