All the estate, which amounted to $8,815.14, was left to Mrs. Montgomery. The appeal is brought by George A. Montgomery, who Is a nephew of Mrs. Saunders, on the ground that she was sick and incapable of making a will when the document was signed. Mrs. Blanche C. Montgomery is a niece of Mrs. Saunders and claims that Mrs. Saunders signed the will while she supported her arm as she lay In bed. The handwriting experts were intro- duced by the counsel for the appeallee to state whether they believed that the same person who wrote a number of letters signed with the name of Mrs. Mary A. Saunders also wrote the will The attorneys for the appellee are John H. Barnes and Hadlai A. Hull, while the administratrix is represented by A. M. Brown and J.

He said he had made at least 25 wiils in his life, but he could not fell all the contents of the documents. Everett W. Salisbury testified as to signatures and then George A. Mont. gomery of Ledyard testified as to his relationship with Mrs. Saunders, who was his_aunt. Mary R.

Treasurer Charles B, Chapman of the Chelsea Savings bank, who said he had been connected with the bank for many vears had had experience in ex- amining and comparing handwritings, was introduced by counsel for the ap~ pellees. He was glven a number of letters to ok at with the signature of Mary A. aunders upon them and one with the signature of the beneficiary, Elanche C. Montgomery, and asked to notice the characteristics in both.

Large Audience Hears Classical Pro- gramme Finely Interpreted. In a piano recital at the Y. M. 2 hall on Tuesday evening Prof. Frank L. Farrell beld an audience of close to 500 in rapt attention and enjoyment of the display of his musicianly tal- ents and command of ‘his instrument which was shown throughout the ardu- ous programme he had set for him- self. [} With those who had heard Professor Farrell in a previous recital it was the general comment that he had grown and improved markedly in the interval between then and now, and at the close of the recital he was given the tribute of enthusiastic applause, while many came forward to extend personal congratulations. The following was the programme given: Part Sonata Appassionata, op. 57, Beethoven Allegro Assai ‘Andante Con Moto Allegro ma non troppo Pastorale Varie, Mozart Carnaval, op. 9, Schumann Preambule, Pierrot, Arlequin, Valse noble, Eusebius, Florestan, Co- quete, Replique, Papillons, Lettres dansantes, Chiarina, Chopin, E trella, Reconnaissan antalon et Columbine, Valse allemande, Pag- anini B, Aveu, Pauge, Marcne des Davidsbnudler contre les Philistins Part 11.° Nocturne, op. ; Btude, op. 25, No. 9; op. 20, Chopin Andante Finale (Lucia di Lam- mermoor), Leschetizki (l.eft hand alone.) Liebestraume, No. 2; Rhapsodle, No. 8, Liszt To this, in response to evident de- sire to hear more of Professor Far- rell's playing, he added as encores an etude from Chopin and a composition of his own which is dedicated to Miss Gladys Latimer. Throughout Professor Farrell's recit- al his execution was marked with an air of consclous power, subdued and not obtrusiveand his stage appearance was easy and free from mannerisms, while he drew from his instrument a tone that was soulful and sonorous, thrilling with intensity of feeling in the heavier passages, or gliding away easily into the lighter moods of his in- terprétation. In the two opening selections of his programme the Beethoven and the Mozart numbers, he gave abundant in- dication of the pleasure his artistic abilities were to give his audience when he clothed the second move- ment of the Beethoven sonata in poetic imagery and brought it to a close in a triumphant mastery of its difficulties of technique, The embellishment of the tuneful theme of the third move- ment was also accomplished with rare sympathy and beauty, and his inter- pretative power and insight was shown in the grasp of the elusive and chang- ing moods of the Mozart Pastorale. The Schumann Carnival was given a brilliant and colorful rendition and these triumphs of the early part of his Dprogramme were continued and inten- sified in the later numbers, among which the Liszt Liebestraume was a number particulariy winning the ex- Dpressed approval of his hearers.

It is not the fault of the state tuber- | cuiosis commission Lhat there has 1ot been established at the.shore an insti- tution for the treatment of tuberculvsis of the bone. It uied every means | which it had the power to employ to | secure a_desirable site, but it failed. ‘The commissioners have always found that local sentiment agalnst the locat- ing of such imstitutions at the shore was too strong for them to resist and that it was always able to frustrate thelr plans. At one time they thousht they had secured a site in the town of ‘estbrook; but only to find that oppo- tion prevalled. Later the commis- sloners thought they had secured a place In the town of Clinton. but the sequel was the same. 'hey had hoped the legislature would come to their assistance by giving them the power to take land by -con- demnation proceedings, but the adverse action at the last session dispelled that hepe. But with the commissioners the olicy is nil desperandum. They con- inue to hope that they will succeed in securing a site at the shore for a sana- torlum. The outlook may not he en- couraging but it is believed that the necessity for having such an institu- tion will be 8o generally recognized that a solution of the site problem will be suggested If it will not suggest it- self. When the great majority of the people of the state desite anything Connecticut 18 never long in securing it, and without doing injustice to any interest, personal or corporate. EXPRESS COMPANY DENIES EVER RECEIVING SHIPMENT In Suit Brought by John Hurley—to Jury Today. The court of common pleas was in sesslon here on Tuesday all day for the continuance of the trial of the case of John Hurley vs. Adams Express com pany, and when court adjourned at 4.30 till the next morning at 10 the argu- ments had been concluded and the case was ready to huve Judge C. B. Waller give his charge to the fury When court opened in the morning Attorney William H. Shields continued his cross-examination of the plaintiff. The plaintiff is a resident of Norwich and has a vendor stand with conopy top that is often located on Franklin square, In October, 1911, he took his stand and supplies to Brockton, Mass., to carry on his business at the fam- ous Brockton fair. When the fair was over he claims that he dellvered his stand and merchandise to the driver of the Adams Express company on the fair grounds, to be transported to N wich, and that he has never received or seen his stand or goods since. He received no shipping receipt from the Adams Express company for his goods and has a vendor stand, with canopy one. His suit is brought to recover $130, the value of the property that he claims to have shipped by the Ex- press company. The Express company deny ever having seen or received the goods in question, and their Brockion | head agent, W. J. Chisholm, was a wit- ness for the defendants Tuesday, as was also Abner A. Robinson, the for- mer chief agent of the Express com- pany at Nérwich. Mr. Chisholm produced in evidence the record book kept by the company in Brockton for the week of the fair and for the Monday following. The witness testificd that all goods receiv- ed by the company for transportation during the week of the fair were en- tered in the record book that he pro- duced, and they were shipped each day away from Brockton to their des- tination. The book contained the rec- ord of many shipments. No goods were fecorded as having been delivered to the company or shipped by it for John Hurley, and in behalf of the company its agent Jenied all knowledge of any transaction concerning Mr. Hurley's £oods. At the time the clalm was made for the goods Agent Chisholm made an in- vestigation among the Express com- pany employes in his office, and amons ihe many Express company’s and rail- road company’s emploves, but was un- able to find any trace whatsocver of the missing goods, he testified, and was quite positive that they never came in- to the possession of the Adams Iix- { press or any of its agents. | Mr. Hurley’s claim is that he saw | the goods, which consisted of two large, heavy boxes, loaded onto a wag- on having on its side the name Adams Express company. The Express com pany claims that they were using no wagons in their Brockton business ex- | cept such as had painted on them the names Adams ss company and | Southern Express company i The case was argued at length by Bdmund W, Perkins and Allyn L. Brown for the plaintiff, and by William | H. Shields for the Express company | The arguments were finjshed at 4.30, the time for the adjournment of court GEORGE LELAND HUNTER LECTURES ON TAPESTRIES Before Monthly Meeting of Art Stu- dents’ Association.
