Roberts of Columbia Ad- mits Murder of Wife—Sentenced to State Prison—Crime Due to Drink. William Burows Roberts, who has been under indictment for murder in the first degree, having murdered his wife in the Wellswood district of Co- lumbia June 7, Monday pleaded guilty to manslaughter in the superior court at Rockville and was sentenced to not less than ten and not more than fif- teen years in state prison. ‘lament her un- Crime Committed June 7. Mrs. Roberts died at her home in Colunbia on the evening of June following peculiar circumstances. Rob- erts had bedn to Colchester that day and had drunk, and it is assumed that his_ wife scolded him for it upon his return. There was a quarrel and when neighbors arrived® Mrs. Roberts was Iying unconscious on the ground near the driveway and a stone was beside her. She was carrled into the house, and when it was learned that life was extinct thevmedjeal examiner was call- ed in on thg case. That official found nothing to fix the death as an unnat- ural one and he based his findings, it on the story of Roberts that while' they were quarreling she hag dropped dead. Roberts was great- ly feared. in the neighborhood where ‘he lived, as he had been known to make & number of threats. The body was taken to Tarrytown, N. Y., and buried. Several days later First Selectman Winter of Columbia became convinced from various sto- ries circulated by neighbors that all was not as appeared at first, and the matter was brought to the attention of Coroner Roberl E. Fisk of Stafford, who had the body exhumed when ev- ldgnce of violence was found. he autopsy -disclosed that death was due to 4 hemorrhage of the brain caused by extenral violence. Husband Taken to Jail. Following the funeral Roberts came back to this city from Tarrytown, N. Y., and was found beastly drunk in a doorway on upper Main street. He was before the police court the next morning and was sent to Brooklyn for a term of thirty days. During his term the evidence was gotten together so completely that there was but small question of his guilt, and he was arrested and taken to the Tolland county jail when his thirty days were up, and after being given a preliminary hearing in Colum- bia, probable cause being found, was botind over to the present term of the superior court. = Sheriff Sprague took him to Tolland county jail, where he has been ever since. except when he was taken to Rockville at the opening of the present term of court and nro- sented before the grand jury that found a true bill and returned an in- dictment oe the murder charge and the trial was set for the 27th inst. Suturday there was a conference be- taveen State’s Attorney Charles Phelps of Rockville dt Attorney Willlam A. King of this city, who had been re- tained as counsel for the accused, and it was agreed that Roberts should be brought into court at noon Monday to plead guilty to the charge of man- - slgaghter. . Robertn was 50 years old apd had lived in Tarrytown, N. Y. with her husband, up to about a decnde ago. There is a daughter, Ida, about | 16 years old. Mrs. Roberts was con- nected with. prominent Waestche; ter countypeople. Roberts himself fas influential relatives, but drink got the best of him.

Richards of in A case of real misfortune was called to the attention of the police early Monday morning when. Russell Crow- ell, 24, without any home, was found ill and fainting near the six o'clock when he saw the young man totter and lean against the wall of the Cyr building to save himself from falling to the sidewalk, Ber- gin. crossed over to investigate and learned that the young man was faint from hunger and exposure. Crowell told him that he had not had anything excepting a few crackers to eat for several days. Mr. Bergin communicated with Chief Pilling and Selectman Gilbert and in- terested them in the case. Crowell was taken to the police station and provided with food and warm drinks When telling the story of his i1l lick, Crowell said_that he formerly lived in Medford, Mass. About two years ago his mother died and a few weeks after in & fit of despondency his fa- ther killed hipnself by nho«nngi Since that time the voung man bas had no home. He had been working in Prov- idence, but lost his place aud had set out_from that city to walk to Hart- ford, 'h.‘ e of work. hg'i'nier %m{fl he had been drlnklnt. Crowell said that he had never taken a drink in his life given transportation to Hartford at e expense of the town. WET OR DRY? e by Outcome of Campaign in Brooklyn Most Uncertain. For the first time in more than twenty years a vote is to be taken on the iicense question in the town of Brooklyn at the annual town meet- ing in October. The petition asking that a clause be inserted in the warn- ing for the meeting asking for the vote has been- completed and filed with the authorities. It bears 41 sig- natures, two more than the requisite number of ten per cent. of the voters of the town. The possibility of Brooklyn becom- ing a license town has sent a thrill of Interest through the beings that are privileged to say which vl&’ it winl be and one of the warmest paign: that the old town has e'lpeflemd in many years is lpvlren(!y right in the forefront. Citizens o Brooklyn famil- iar with the affairs of the tm admit that it is difficuit to predict which way the town will vote on the matter and some venture their opinion that Brooklyn will be a license town after November 1. The lnceru.lnty of the outcome is due in a great degree to a lack of knowledge of how sentiment bears on the matter in West Wauregan and in East Brooklyn, the latter place being in reality a part of Danielson. There are a sufficient number of voters in those two parts of the town of Brook- Iyn to keep the town dry or make it soaking wet.; Theirs is not a balance of power butla controlling factor. Un questionably, Brooklyn village is for no-license by a strong majority but in the farming and manufacturing dis- tricts of the town there are many tha want the town to have license. Jus how numerous these latter are remain: to be seen, but they are numerous enough to cause uneasiness as to the outcome. No one that could be found Monday could remember that Brookl: ever voted license. There was to have been a vote taken on the question at the annual town meeting of last year, but the persons who got out the petition slinped a cog and secured some sig- natures to the list that were ruled il- legal and caused the petition to be sidetracked, as without the signatures not allowed the petition was short the requisite number of names. This year apparently the license men have taken the precautions they have thought necessary to get the matter before the voters of the town and the out- come will be eagerly awaited by both sides, Theére will be hardly less interest in the matter on the Killingly side of the bridge. It will create a peculiar condition of affairs if Killingly votes No and Brooklyn votes Yes. Personals and Briefs. Joseph Masterson of Providence vis- ited friends in Danielson on Sunday. Charles. B.
