The many Norwich friends of Ed- ward Steven Murphy were deepiy grieved to learn of his death, which occurred in Winchester, Mass., June 21st, after a flve days' ilinéss of meningitis of the brain. Edward Murphy was born in Nor- wich just 20 vears ago, the son of Maria Roarke and Francis E. Mur- phy, but had lived the past 14 years in ‘Winchester, where he received his ed- ucation in the public schools, graduat- ing with highest honors in the class of 1912 from the high school and re- celving the distinction being both ' valedictorian and statistician, He was also interested in athletics and was a charter member of the Win- chester Highlands Athletic club, and it was due to his unflagging zeal that the club is in eo prosperous a condi~ tion. He was captain of the baseball team and held the office of secretary and chairman of the house committee at _the time of his death. But e also had a serious purpose in life. Holding a responsible position in the auditing department of the Bos- ton and Albany railroad, his prospects for the future were more than ordi: narily bright, and he had just re- ceived a well merited promotion. The esteem and respect in which he was held was testified to by the many beantiful floral offerings and the large attendance at the funeral services. His fellow club members marched as an escort to St. Mary’s church, in Winchester, where a solemn requiem mass was celebrated. The following officers acted as bearers: Ernest Mat- thews, Lorenzo Benet, Kenneth B. Park, Roland A. Davies, Stanwood Dearborn and Willard R. Robinson. Edward Murphy leaves a host of $in- cere friends and admirers who deeply sympathize with his nts and the following brothers and ' sisters who survive him: John R, Ramon D, Hen- ry C. and Richard, Miss Agnes M. and Miss Irene E. Murphy, all of Winches- ter. Upon the_arrival of the 4.49 p. m. train from Boston Wednesday the in- terment was in the family plot in Greeneville. Connecticut Patents.

The $20,000 scandal suit of/ John F. Craney against John Donoven awaits the beginning of the arguments in the superlor court hers next ‘week Tues- day. ‘At 8.14 o'clock Thursday after- noon the attorneys for both plaintift and defendant declared that both Tested and Judge Milton A. Shumway adjourned court, excusing the jury till Tuesday morning at 10 o'clock when the first of the arguments for the plaintiff will be made. To Jury. Probably Wednesday. It is expected that the arguments and the charge to the jury will take at least all day Tuesday so that it ‘will probably be Wednesday before the jury has much of a chance to con- dider the evidence in the privacy of the jury. Thursday morning when the court came in Judge Shumway excused the Jurors for the term who were not on the Craney vs. Donovan casé and they -were paid off by Clerk Parsons, Struck Fire in Cross Examinati Attorney Roderick M. Douglass re- sumed the- cross ‘examination of Mr. Donovan, the defendant. As on Wed- nesday there were times when the ex- amination resolved into a contest in stentorian tones between the attorney and the witness in the effort of the attorney to insist upon getting a di- Tect answer from the witness while the witness was trying to reply In some way ‘that did not suit his ques- tioner. Towards the end of the three hours that he was on the stand Mr. Donovan, the strain opparently told on him and he confessed that he felt he was near a nervous collapse and that he had spent a sleepless night, for he felt that the whole thing was a blackmail scheme to ruin him and it had about succeeded. After the judge had left the bench for the noon recess and the jury had also gone, Attorney Douglass and Mr. Donovan had a short but heated ex- change of words of a personal nature and the lawyer said he would like to meet the defendant out in the hallway for a few minutes. Probed About Letters and Happenings In his cross examination, Attorney Douglass went into many matters in detall getting Mr. Donovan to retell much of what he had previously tes- tifled to an dto explain his particular reasons for writing various letters Which were smong the exhibits and were read. The letters which were asked about included some to mem bers of the Craney family, to John Charon in Woonsocket, and to Mrs. Chuch and the postal card which h wrote to Mr. Craney which brought vpn him prosecution by the U. S, government authorities, “A number of times the witness said that his reason for writing the various letters was to show that he was mot the author of the anonymous letters that were being received and that he was not circulat- ing the stories about Mr. Craney and Mrs. Church. The witness was asked about _the time he struck Mr. Craney at Mad- den’s Cigar store and he sala he did Dbecause of the way Craney was black- guarding him. Donovan denled that he struck him and sneaked away or that he told people on the street about the, attack. He also denied that he spread the story about what he claimed he saw in Mr. Craney’s office. e insisted that he told only two men abgut it though many people asked him about it. He claimed tht the foundation for what he told came from what Joseph Harris and George Brure had told thm. Attorney Douglass asked Mr. Don- ovan about the meeting of Messrs. Madden, Craney and Donovan in the Biks' home in October, 1912. The wit- ness said Mr. Madden 'asked if the af- fair in the Craney office was true and Mr. Donovan told Mr. Madden the ‘whole n%ry and about the many an- onymous letters and cards received by Mr. Donovan. The witness said that Mr. Craney said little except to charge Mr. Donovan_with buying New York Worlds and Mr. Donovan asserted he only bought the papers to see what was_said about the state road work in_this state. Mr. Donovan denied that at the meeting in the Elks' home Mr. Craney held an anonymous card in one hand and tapper Mr. Donovan on the chest with the other hand and accused the witness of sending the card. The witness sald no man could act in such 2 manner with him and get away with it. Denied Chadwick Did Any Writing. Mr. Donovan denied he got Elmer M. Chadwick to make a copy of four leiters, saying he had not met the man named until last March. Mr. Donovan was shown a letter that contained four empty envelopes and asked if they were not sent by Mr. Chadwick and witness said he did not know. He was also asked about’an exhibit that contained enveloped ad- dressed to Mr. Donovan and he was asked if he did not employ Mr. Chad- wick to address them. Mr. Donovan said he did not meet Mr. Chadwick un- til last March. The witness was shown a number of letters that he said he did mot write. The witness denied he put a letter shown him un- der the door of the Cardwell store. The witness asserted he wrote an- other letter that was not dated and it spoke of Craney being at Pleasant View and that the writer was through with Mrs. Church and sald that the writer of one enclosed letter was a person who was with Mr. Donovan on Chelsea parade. Mr. Donovan said he could not tell with whom he was ait- ting on Chelsea parade. Mr. Donovan said later he could not remémber sit- ting With anyone on Chelsea parade. Afterncon Session. In the afternoon seasion of court the attorneys for the defense were allowed to call two witnesses out of order. Dr. H. E. Higgins was one. He had an office’ in the Alice bullding, but he could not remember that on July 3, 1912, Mr. Donovan spoke to him about a woman being in the office of Mr. Craney. Dr. J. W. Callahan testified that he once stood in the doorway -of the Madden store with Mr. Craney and he gave testimony that was corrobora- tive of what Mr. Craney had said of the way Mr. Donovan had bit Mr. face. It is for this reason that the bookaellers are so eager for publishers to advertise their new books in the newspapers of their town. The booksellers are always willing to co-oparate by ade- quate displays and every other legitimate means, 7 Craney, but which Mr. Donovan had Goserived in a different way. Then Judge Barnes recalled Mr. Donovan and asked him questions about what he had said about the in- cident in regard to Mr. Craney and meeting politicians in Hartford. Mr. Donovan said_he had met Himer E. Chadwick the Jatter part of last March but denied he wrote for him. Mr. Douglass askedy Mr, Donovan _how any times he has been at Judge es’ office and how much he had _If the publishers realized what business possibilities were bein left undeveloped their entire ad. vertising ‘plans would be mater- ly changed. a volume.

Mr, Rathbome said he never spoke to the woman. John F. Craney, the plaintiff, was recalled and said he bad heard all of John Donovan's testimony. He said he had never followed or mocked Mr, Donovan on the street and did not talk with Mr. Donovan in front of Boyn- ton’s restaurant, He was positive that Mrs. Church was not in his office on July 3, 1912, and he denied the story of Mr. Dono- van about the meeting in the Elks home. He denied other things that Mr. Donovan saiq about the case and declared hothing improper ever trans pired between the witness and Mrs. ‘Church. Mrs, Willard A. Church was also recalled and she denled that anything improper had ever taken place between her and Mr. Craney or that she was in his office on July 3, 1912. She also denied having written a letter to Mr. Craney in March, 1912, which Mr. Don- ovan had testified he saw her drop in the lettér box near the foot of Clft street. Jeremiah T.
