Plainville News MEETS DEATH UNDER WHEELS OF TROLLEY David Dailey, Employe of Plain-‘ ville Casting Co., Instantly Killed BODY WAS BADLY MANGLED| Arrested After Auto Crash—Fist l“{gh[‘ Fnds in Court Trial—L. of M. Team | Sufters First Defeat—Plainville | Briefs, " David Daley, age about (0 years, was instantly killed about 8:45 o'clock Saturday night near Hart's ('ornnrs,‘ when he was struck by a trolley car| bound from Meriden to New Britain, Motorman Charles Knell of Meriden, | driver of the trolley car, was absolved from all blame for the accident fol- lowing an Investigation of the affair, Daley came suddenly out onto the {racks in front of the car and his ap-| pearance was so abrupt and the trol-| ley was so close to him, that it was impossible to stop the car. His body was dragged along the tracks and be-| came lodged in under the car. It was necessary to jack up the body wheels to get him out from under. His body| was badly mangled. Daley originally came from Taun-| ton, Mass,, where his relatives reside | at the preesnt time. He came to Plain- | ville two weeks ago from New Haven and being a molder by trade, he took a position with the casting company. The scene of his death is at the second | station from Plainville.towards Hart's | Corners. As the trolley approaches| from Lazy Lane to Plainville, a border | of bushes makes it impossible for a| motorman to see anything on the side. | The brush comes right up to the| tracks and in this way, only one step was needed for Daley to come in front | of the car. | The Plainville authorities commun- | | icated with officers of the New Haven | molders’ union in an effort to trace the relatives of the man and thercby dis- pose of the body. Up to a late hour this morning, no one could be located | who could claim kinship with the vic- | tim of the accident, but communica- tions with the Taunton police are ex-| pected to result in the discovery of the | dead man's relatives, | Medical Sxaminer Dr. Charles, Moody viewed the body and gave per- mission for its removal to the under- | taking parlors of W. A. Bailey & Co. | where it will be held pending the ar-| | rival of instructions from the family of the man. | Arrested Following Crash | | Charles McCall was arrested Satur-| day evening by Officer E. W. Furrey | at Broad street after an automobile he had been driving hit a telephone pole at the corner. He was charged with driving under the influence of liquor and his case will come up in the town court today . Fight Ends In Court Donald Messenger and Duffy Gnaz- 70 were arrested last evening by Of-| Acer E. W. Furrey on the charges of assault and breach of the peace fol-| lowing a fist fight which took place in| the center of the town., The argu- ment, it is reported, started Saturday | night after someonc had placed an egg in one of the pockets of Messen- ger's coat. The egg, in the course of events, broke and spoiled a perfectly good coat and Messenger is said to have heen angry al the joke. lLast cvening, the climax of the affair came | when Gnazzo and Messenger engaged in a wordy battle after which it was decided to fight it out. Choosing the center as the best ring, the two start- c¢d at each other, but Officer Furrey placed hoth under arrest and held them for trial today. Gnazzo was al- lowed his liberty on a $25 bond but Messenger was held for some time, the authorities claiming he was drunk.
