The Oven is heated by the cup- joint flues all ovér alike; no “cold corners,” no@“scorching spots”. Quickest and surest baker.

Two cases from the village of Paw- catuck, in which the accused were charged with the serious crime of as- sault and intent to murder, were heard by Judge W. A, Reed in the town court at Stenington, Monday. They were the state against Louis Dotolo and state agalnst William D. Critch- erson, both cases being the outcome of 4 disagreement in regard to the re- moval of a building along the high- way dividing the property of Dr. Critcherson, during which the limbs of trees beionging to Critcherson were cut off in spite of his protest. The accused were arraigned a week ago and both pleaded not guiity. The first case heard was the state against. Dotolo, Prosecuting Attorney Benjamin H. Hewitt representing the tate, and Town Solicitor Harry B Agard the defendant, in which Do- tolo is charged with the murderous assault vpon Dr. Critcherson. Dr. William D. Critcherson, first witness, testified he resided in lower Pawcatuck and ownsd forty-six acres of land- re. The continuation of Pawcatuck road goes by his property and trees are growing on his property along the rcad. He introduced a pho- tograph of his property on both sides of the highway. He pointed out two trees that are connected with the case. On Octcber 5, a house that was being moved by Louis Dotolo was wedged between these trees. On the moruing of the 5t Selectman Stanle and Town Attorney McKenna avere there and agreement had been made the day before that one of the trees was not to be cut, but on that morn- ng the foreman of the job was cut- ting the. tree. Witness previousiy warned Dotolo that the tree must not be cut. The foreman was in the tree with an axe, the axe hanging from a limb of the tree. FHe reached for and secured the and threw it beiind him. FHe then attempted to pull the man down and as he did so Dotolo struck him over the back with a:picce of cordwood, that was bmitted in eviderce. I'he witness reached axe, which was lying on the ground, and then started for Dotolo. 1e was then - overpowered by Stahle and a gang of the workmen. Agreement nad been reached the day before that one of ‘the limbs on amother tree might be cut and the fence removed., butythat no -other tree was to be mutilated In response to queries from Attorney Agard. Dr. Critcherson said that wiien | he came out of the house that morning barn, got his g but did not d arge the weajon. indignant because the iree ut afier it had been agreed ¢ would be no mutilation of that ticular tree. When Dotolo struc im the blow was accompanied w an oath by Dotolo. Deputy Sheriff William H. Casey ified that he saw bruise on the doc- i back, when in the office of Pros- Attorney Hewitt, The big s ented in court witness re- ceived from Dr. Critcherson. He was not at the Critcherson place at the time of the assault, but. was called there soon after by telephone by Dr. Critcherson. Harold Davis Critcherson, twelve years old, son of the doctor. testified he was at the window of his home { when fracas occurrad. He saw qis father reaching for the axe in the tree and for the man. Lle saw Dotolo strike father over the back with the club, lad taiked the matter over with his father. Told his mother at the time that Dotolo had struck fa- ther. Did not teil his father that he had seen Dotoio strike him until a few davs ago. Saw the man chopping the tree with the axe when his father took the axe from the man. His fa- ther then put the axe on the ground and Dotolo then used the club. Wit- ss said that his father had never n]d him that Dotolo struck him with the axe. Samuel Critcherson, anoth: voung son of the doctor, age 10, testified that he knew Dotolo, and saw him strike his father with the club. He saw the trouble from the window of the house and corroborated the testimony of his brother, The first witness called for the de- fense was Selectman Henry A. Stahle. He testified that at the time he was deputy tree warden as well as se- lectman. The highwdy was blocked and there had been trouble the day before, he went down to the scene to see if something could be done fo clear the highwa He went there with Town Attorney MecKenna about seven o'cl in the morning. The foreman was in the tree, removing the limb of the tree, whena Critcherson came out. Just then the axe was hanging in the tree and the foreman was using a saw. The doctor tried to pull the man out of the tree. He then saw Mr. Critcherson with the axe and chased the men away, but seemed to e atter Dotelo. Witness took hold of Critcherson and assisted in disarm- ing him. He did not see Dotolo Rave a club or any weapon, but did see somé other man have a club in hand. By Attorney Hewitt: Mr. Stahle safd he was there in dual capacity of selectman and tree warden and told Dotolo ne must get the house out of the highway and advised Dotolo to remove one of the limbs of the tree. He said that Critcherson protested. Dotoio had no ciub in his hand. He was in position to see evervthing that occurred. George R. McKenna, attorney for the town of Stonington, testified that he was near the Critcherson residence in low Pawcatuck with Selectman Stahle seven o'clock in the morning. The irouble was about 8 o'clock. There was a branch that had been cut and a stub six or seven inches long re- moved and the workman was ordered to cut the stub. Mr. Critcherson sud- denly appeared and declared he would protect Wis property. ( od the axe and swung it to the t and left Dotolo was pushed over, and ended in a minute.
