Judge John W, Sweeney of the su- perior court, and a resident of Wes- terly, was the speaker at a meeting of the Catholic Club of Providence, of Which he is a member. = His subject was The Development of the Law. Judge Sweeney, after a brief refer- ence on the origin and purposes of law. declared that in the days of Roger Williams it was not necessary to have complex laws, and added that the more populous the state becomes) the more necessary are the laws. He told of the charter for the colonies being ob- tained by Roger Williams and stated s charter was ih force until the adoption of the present state con- stitution in 1842, Judge Sweeney declared that there was a law to punish witchcraft on the statutes, as in Massachusetts, but he added, he could find no record of any conviction or punishment under the law. He enumerated several laws wtich were changed with the adop- tion of the Constitution in 1842, citing in particular the law whereby the eld- est_son inherited the property of his father to the exclusion of the other children. A “As the business of the city began to develop,” said Judge Sweeney, “there was need of new laws, such as the banking laws, the corporation laws and others. As the laws are needed, and as there is agitation, the laws are enacted to meet the nmeeds.” He then explained the various branches of the government and their duties. He held that the judiciary came closest to the people through the medium of the ju- ries. In speaking of jurigs he urged that when any man is called for jury duty he should respond willingly, as it is one of his greatest duties to the state and that it gives one an idea of how Sustice is administered. He then ex- Dlained the relation between the jury and the bench and related several amusing incidents that have come to his attention, Railroad avenue, a_thoroughfare at Pleasant View, extending from Atlan- tic avenue, is effectually blocked by an old barn that formerly stood near the beach front and is to be moved to a prominent location. evidently at the pleasure of the owner, regardless of the inconvenience of cottage own- ers In Railroad avenue. This barn was left standing in Atlantic avenue and n order to permit the rebuilding of that avenue was moved out of the way by direction of the highway commit- tee and into Railroad avenue. When the matter was taken up with the committee, information was' given that Railroad avenue had mot been accept- ed by the town and that the commit- tee representing the town had no in- terest in the removal of the obstruc- tion although the committee exercised the power to obstruct. If the barn is not removed in the very near future there is probability that steps will be taken along legal lines and suit brought against the town of Wester- ly for placing an obstruction in a private thoroughfare. The owner of the old barn does not seem disposed to relieve the situation, claiming that the structure was not placed there by his order or with his consent. On the other hand the rep- resentatives of the town claim that no permit was ever given the owner of the barn to move it to a new loca- tion, as is required by local law, and is therefore liable to presecution, In the meantime the cottagers on Rail- road avenue are seriously inconve- nienced and demand redress. Unless that barn is removed forthwith there is liable to be trouble and the courts may be called upon to straighten out the entanglement Pasquale Salamen Westerly is guilty as charged in the dictment of assaulting with intent to kill Charles Brown, by shooting, will be determined today by the jury in the superior court for Washington county in session at Kingston. The evidence was concluded and argu- ments made on Friday afternoon, when court adjourned to Monday. Upon the opening of court Judge Doran will de- liver his charge to the jury. A delegation from the Westerl, High school attended the interscholas. tic meet held at the Rhode Island state college at Kingston Saturday. Fifteen high schools of Rhode Island were represented in the events and the Technical High school's well-bal- anced track team kept unbroken its string of victories, winning the third and deciding leg upon the team tro- phy with a tabulation of 46 points.
