L. L. Spen Person. When 'the criminal superior court opened Friday morning a jury was se- lected for the trial of the case of the state vs. Amasa D. Maine of Volun- town, charged with the theft of 22 chickens and a hen from Martin O. Chapman of Pendleton Hill on May 14 of this vear. The chickens were sald to be three weeks old and valued at $1150. Mayor C. F. Thayer was as- signed by the court to defend Maine, ‘who did-not have counsel and who pleaded not guilty earlier in the week. The accused was out under bonds fur- nished by Lafayette Maine. The first witness called by the state was Martin O. Chapman, who said that on the night of May 14 his wife called him because of a noise and he investigated and found his hencoop had been robbed, With his wife and hired man they tracked the thief by his footprints, which could be seen with a lantern. The tracks led him to the home of Amasa D. Maine where the chickens were found in a bag near his door. Maine was found trying to get into his house. He had lost the key and was using somethirg to pry oven the door. He denied that he had taken the chickens or knew anything about them. He told of having been at work for Andrew Bennett and reaching home just then. Members of Yhe party went to Mr. Bennett's, and it was found that Maine had not been there in three weeks. - Seen to Drop Bag. The claim was then made by Maine that he had been after cider at the home of Eugene Congdon. It was tes- tifiled by Ernest Perkins, Mrs. Chap- man’s hired man, that he saw Amasa Maine drop the bag of chickens just as he got to his.door. Deputy Sheric Casey told of arresting Maine and that he had to go there three times before he found him home. He wgs away fishing that day and was cleahing the fish when he made his third visit to the house. For the defense Lafayette F. Maine was called and he testified that the witnesses could not have tracked a man as the state’s witnesses said they did. Abram E. Congdon also testified for the defense, which completed the testimony, After the arguments were heard, the case went to the jurs, following a charge by Judge Reed of about a half- hour. At 3.40 o'clock they returned with'a verdict of guilty given through foreman Hamilton Wallis, Maintained His Innocence. Attorney Thayer, after a motion for sentence had been made by State At- torney Hull, said that he had been sur- prised by some of the testimony that had heen given. The accused had stub- bornly refused to plead guilty because, he stated, he was not guilty and would not plead guilty to something he was not_guiity of. The counsel said that he had his doubts, notwithstanding the jury’s verdict, as to his guilt. He be- lieved that the real thief was the ac- cused’s son, John, ag he had been in- formed since the jury went out’ that the whereabouts of John have begn as- certained and that John had admitted it. As to the certainty of this, he said, he was unable to say. To the state attorney he said the information came Mr. Thayer is between 62 from Lafayette Maine. claimed the accused - DRAWINGS IN THE LOCAL TENNIS TOURNEY.

Record. Against Him. State Attorney Hull said he had no doubt that the son John would commit the crime, but the statement of Lafay- ette Maine would be as unreliable as anyone’s could be, in his opinion. He showed the court’s record that Amasa D. Maine had been, sent to jail once for six months for stealing poultry and on the second time he was given one to two years in state prison, He was probably under the influénce of cider. "He has a bad record and reputation. There is no_doubt but he committed the crime. Lafayette Maine, if he had any knowledge about John, could have found the testimony in time but the admission of John would not be of the slightest importance. A. D. Maine ig an habitual criminal. Usual- ly criminals are young fellows and this is generally the result of the use of intoxicants. = He thought there should be a substantial sentence. Sent to Prison. Judge Reed said he thought the jury was right in its decision. He said the offense is trivial, but the matter of value should not enter into consid- eration of this matter. The nlan has failed to learn a lesson fris his two experiences and he did not think, with his record, that he deserved much sympathy. He sentenced him to not less than one mor more than three years in state prison and later modi- fied that to not less than one npr more than two in state prison. Rossi Given Four Months. James Rossi pleaded guilty to steal- ing $15 from the person of Ferdinand di Bennetto in New London June 1. He told the pudge that he took the money when under the influence of liquor. He had been'in jail some time and during that time his father died. He was penitent and believed he could do better if given a chance. He cried as he talked with the judge. He was given four months in jail Fined $50 and Costs. Harry Nosorwitz pleaded guilty to the assault with a knife upon a fellow countryman, named Mike Lazike, in| Montville, June 4. Attorney Hall spoke | for him, saying that the affair took place at a Polish wedding, where he claims he was struck by a man much larger than himself, and two other men beal him down. While oo his hands and knees he drew a jackknife and| stabbed the fellow in the leg, inflicting a deep cut. He has been in the coun- ty two vears and claimed he made the assault in self defense. State Attorney Hull said the troubls | arose over a girl. The accused wanted to dance with a girl there, and the fel- low dancing with her erfused to release her. He started a fight when he said he was going to dance with her. The cut he inflicted was in the groin. It| fined, he thought it ought to be sub- stantial. The judge thought there was little; sround for self defense. He fined him | $50 and costs, amounting to $116.29, which he paid. This completed the business of the afternoon and court adjourned until Tuesday morning at ten o'clock. when the Courtland Maynard case ex- pected to be put on, i He is charged with arson in Waterford.
