Several of the things referred to as unsatisfactory by the architeet Were up to the sub-contractors and not' to him. He sald that the work Wwas done aceording to specifications as far as possible, Cheney Claim Considered. The claim of Frederick A. Cheney for $285 was then taken up by Attor- ney Kelley, he showing a letter re- ceived by the trustee from Mr. Che- ney that indicated that tbe claim was approximately $318.° Mr. O’Donovan said that he did nof think the amount of accrued interest would exceed $8. There were four notes due Mr. Che- ney of $50 each and one for 385, all bearing interest at ¢ per cent. The notes had been running since Jan- uary 18, 1910. Comcerning the claim of the Norwich Electric company, he stated that their contract should be completed before its allownnce, an estimated cost of about $90 for work on the First distriet school job yet to be finished. The company should also surrender to the estate the mnote of $100 already given them by him. Indebted to Nerwich Bank. The bank book with the First Na- tional bank of Nerwich showed that he was indebted to the bank for $42.26, | but this indebtedness did not show in the schedule. He thought that the in- dobtedness was caused by the bank taking care of a_Cheney note for $ for him. He had made no depgsit in the bank since January §, 1911. Du ing that month he had from 15 to men working for him, the men being paid practically the entire month by the Willimantic Lumber & Coal Co. much he himself had paid for labor @uring January. ‘He was of the 6bin- ign that he could find his time books showing payments to help during that month. At this point the examination was suspended for Tuneh. * Checks Drawn to Cash. | Attorney Kelley resumed the exam- | ination at the afternoon zession, con- | tinuing with_the matter of the time books and the number cf employes. From the time books in the hands of | the _trustee, Mr. O'Donovan said_that on Decéember he had paid out HW;%— imately. $1.479.71 in wa, Bogk B covered all checks paid except those made payable to him, and endorsed by him and paid out. The book was made out from the time he went into bank. | ruptey and was taken from His chec ! books, Examination showed that his checlk stubs were not properly filled ul Mr. O'Donovan said that the | checks drawn to sh were generally for the payrojl ccording o the book 32,800 was drawn for the pay roll_and you,” said Mr. Kelley, “have | stafed that in that time that you have | paid out $1,460 for pay roll. How do Yeu account for this?” Mr. O'Dono- van said that all ‘checks to “cash” were on the pay roll. He had given figures for puy roll to December 24, 2nd Mr. Kelley was figuring for a week after the date the time book showed. A check for $45 cash might have been to take cash out of bank as attach- ments were coming pretty fast. same reason might also apply fo dis repancies hetween pay roil and mon- ey drawn out, Arrangements With Bank. He said that on ome or {wo occas- ions he had had an arrangement with the bank, whereby he had an account with_them, although it did not show on the books. Tae arrangements, it there was one, had been made with Cashier Hopkins, o that he could have a personal check covering the balance in the cashier's hands. He paid wages in Mystic, seiding it there on January 1. He was positive that he had sent it but did mot know to whom, but he believed that the pay roll book in his possession would show. Diffarence of More Than-$8,000. November's account had some checks marked pay roll and others not. M. O'Donovan said that all were for the me purpose. The total was $2,378.15 and he thought that his November time book ' would show that figure. The October account showed cash checks of $4800, but this was not all earned by or paid to help. The ar- rangement at the bank explained 000 of the amount. The 32,000 was checked out afterwards in smaller amounts. Mr. O'Donovan said that this showed in credits on his bank- book, and Attorney Kelley asked him to figure it ont and show the court, The hooks showed a difference of more than $2.000 between accounts and checks drawn over deposits. He denied having drawn that $2.000 check to cash, but Attoruey Kelley showed him that it had been cancelled by the bank as in the regular course of bus- ines O'Donovan then admitted that he had™the arrangement spoken of with_ the bank to save attachments and to conceal his real assets from his creditors. He said that he did not know that he was insolvent until | Mr. Kelley told him so in the middle | of Janua There was more talk about the pay roil. Checks were drawn by Cashier | Hopkins of the bank. Attorney Kel- | ley shiowed that he had deposited ‘in | the bank over $74,000 diring the year, $24,000 of which had been deposited | during the time from October 3 to Janvary 3, and that out of this sum he had'not given the Willimantic Coal & Lumber Co. anything in spite of their urgent request for money, Mr. ©O'Donovan's’ excuse being that he could not get any funds. $74,000 Paid Creditor: He made adniissions that all of 374,- 000 “had been paid to creditors and that ngne had been paid to’himself, Refarritig to payments on -the McNa- mara job, books In the hands of the referee &4 not show one of $1,400 and another of $2,000. Mr. Kelley intimat- ed that check and note of 32,000 were given at same time, but. this was de- nied by Mr. O'Domovan. The 32,000 payment was in advance of time duy and in response to ‘questions M, Jielley he admitted that the Trst 1 The | Harry Edmunds, an automobile demonstrator, formerly of this_city, and his ‘wife, of Springfield, 5., were in Sunday with & party’ of tourists in an automobile.
