Philip Feraci, the young Itallan of New London, who was concerned in the holdup of Melville I Mason of Niantle in East Lyme early on the morning of Sunday, Aus. 4, goes scot free, Feraci turned state’s evidence, assisting to convict the others in the case, which accounts for the disposi- tion'of the gase against him. Feraci was present in the courtroom in New London Friday morning when ghe criminal superior court opened. tatg’s Attorney Hull referred to the case, and Judge Case said that he would agree to indefinite suspension of sentence in Feraci's case. This gives Feraci his liberty, as no sentence 1s imposed. By those who are acqualnted with some of the circumstances in this case it is_expected that Feraci will quit this section of the country to get out of reach of the vindicative hate of his countrymen who were accused in the case with him. 1t is understood that the two who were convicted and sentenced to state prison have threatened to even up the score with him when they get out and that one of them grabbed Feracl by the throat since they have been in custody by way of emphasizing their threats. Five Itallans were charged with as- saulting Mason, who 1s a butcher in Niantic—Philip Feraci, Joseph Alfiero, Frapk Serratto, Joseph Bruno and Frank Demarla. The jury found Al- flero and Serratto guilty on the testi- mony of Feraci, but found Bruno not guilty. Alfierg and Serratto were glv- en from five to ten years in state prison.

Ma.- Jjor Hull thought, in view of the fact that Brown furnished the evidence to convict Gardner, that he should not be sent to state prison. “Do you llve wWith your wife?” Judge Case asked Brown. ‘No,” Brown replied. e is to be congratulated” the judge replied. “You richly ~deserve state prison, but I will send you to Jai Forger Was Sentenced.

Geary was appointed as his counsel. After con- ference with Attorney Geary, Law- rence pleaded guilty. State's Attorney Hull recommended that @ lengthy sentence be imposed, and then if Lawrence seemed to be disposed to behave himself that after the accused had served a while he might be put on probation.
