H., June 7 UPM— the rear of his property, presumably Ralph Conway, 40 year ald man of mystery, who shot and instantly killed Ray Barton, 32, his next door neighbor yesterday, died late last night at the Margaret Pillsbury hos- pital, Concord, from gunshot wounds self-inflicted shortly before a posse of citizers, aided by Concord po- lice, stormed his home with tear gas bombs. The killing was prefaced by a tlight argument in which Conway was said to have accused Barton of raaking it impossible for him to tleep nights and of having once in- sulted his mother. Barton denied Conway's allegations, but the latter rushed from hir house with a double iarrelled shotgun, aimed it at Bar- ton's heart and fired, Investigation after the shooting and suicide showed Conway earlier in the day had dug a deep hole in PREFERS TERM IN PRISON BUT IS SENT T0 CHESHIRE Man Convicted on Theft Charge for ‘Taking Part in Highway Robbery Joseph Sgroi, 30, of 79 Grove street, was sentenced to the state re- formatory at Cheshire by Judge for the purpose of burying his vic- tim.

Barton, a barber by trade, had re- cently been working with a road construction outfit. He met his wife, the former Miss Agnes O'Brien, of East Boston, Mass., while she was vacationing here three years ago. They had two children. en, his theory being that he would be released sooner from Wethers- field than from Cheshire but Judge Avery would not send him, 8grol was alleged to have robbed Stanley Zdanuczyk of 259 Grove atreet on May 4, and while await- ing trial on that charge he was al- leged to have robbed Louis Fanion of 39 Curtis street.
