A recent item in the Herald re- lating to the employment of a stool plgeon in the prosecution of liquor cases, reminded me of an Incldent which occurred at Southington more than 60 years ago. A party was prosecuted for an illegal salo of liquor and an attempt was made to prove the sale by a man who was present when the sale was made, In answer to thequestion as to his name, age and occupation, the witness re- plied, - “My name is Thode Smith, I'm an old man and I make and sell ladders for twelve and a half cents per foot.” On being asked if ho was present at the defendant's store last Saturday hight, he again replied, My name is Thode Smith. I'm an old man and I make dnd seil ladders for twelve and a half cents per foot," Numerous other questions were asked and all of them received the same answer to the question as to his name, yer for the prosecution said: *“Mr, Smith, you must answer my question or I will make out a mittimus* ana send you to jail.” The witness te- plled: “You can thake out your-mit- timus and send me to hell, but my name is Thode Smith, I'm an old man and I make and sell ladders for twelve and a half cents per foot and you can’t have one a dammed cent less," 1 have purposcly given the witness a fictitious name, y JAMES SHEPARD, Istrict attorney ,that on September 8, 1921, while driving from Grand Rapids to Chicago in company with which he received the next day at the | In the garage of the prison. office of the chief of police.
