Wakefield, in June, 1913, was caused this after- noon by the sudden illness of Juror John L. Hubbell of Ansonia. While a Wwitnéss was testifying, Hubbell, who is 71 years old, rose from his seat in the jury box and, addressing the court di- rectly, 'asked to be excused.

Reed, who is presiding, ordered adjournment of court until next Tuesday morning. Five witnesses were examined durlag the morning session, but from the time court reconvened after recess until the adjournment Mrs. Mary Gillette, wife of George Gillette, of Bristol, who was one of the morning witnesses, occupted the stand and & part of the time was under cross examination by counsel for the defense.

Jokin Ros: Rev. John Rossiter, M. principal of the Broadway this city for a period of 22 years, di=d on Friday at his home in’ New Fair- fleld, this state, at the age of 64 vears. Because of ill health Principal Rossiter was forced to retire from his work in this city ten vears ago. and at that rime moved to North Guilford. A year ago last fall he was ordained to the Christlan ministry and for a year or more had been the pastor of the New Fairfield Congregational church. A graduate of Yale university in the class of 1882, Mr. Rossiter was a man of thorough education and high ideals of service, and in his life in this com- munity he put those into practical and tangible form. Besides a fruitful ca- reer as head of the largest public school of the city, Mr. Rossiter was a deacon of the Second Congregational church, superintendent of its Sunday &chool and always an interested worker for all that made for their good. He always taught a class in that school. On the students that came under his charge Mr. Rossiter made many an im- press for good and the high plane of living that he exemplified was a true inspiration for others. The departure of this earnest and high minded edu- cator and citizen was a cause for re- gret to a broad circle of people in this city with whom he had been in touch. Before coming here he had taught in the Easthampton, Mass., school “or boys. Mr. Rossiter i8 survived by his wid- ow, who was Miss Neilie Brown, of New Canaan, one son, John Harold Rossiter, and one daughter, Miss Ruth Rossiter, who is a graduate of Colum- bia and is now a teacher.
