When court comes in this morning Judge M. A Shumway will make his charge to the jury, who will then take the case into their hands to decide whether Douglass is guilty or not. If convicted on the charge of cruelly beating his horse, the penalty provided is a year in jail, or a fine of $250, or both the jail term and the fine. Both sides rested at about 3.30 o'clock and the arguments were taken up with Attorney Warren B. Burrows, assistant to the state’s attorney, mak- ing the, first argument for the state. He wad followed by Attorneys C. V. James and J. J. Desmond for rme ac- cused, and State’s Attorney Hull made the final argument agdinst the ac- cused, ending at 4.30 o'clock. Claims Made in Arguments. . In the arguments for the state, the point was emphasized that the state did not have to prove that the blows struck by Douglass actually killed the horse but. that all thy needed to prove was the fact of the inhuman beating. For the defendant, his attorneys ar- gued that the horse was sick and that Douglass was doing no more than was needed to get the horse along the road so that he might bring him to a spot where medicine for the anmmmal could be procured. The case was resumed at 11 o'clock Thursday morning, Major Hill recall- ing James Dixon to the stand. Mr. Dixon showed two sticks which he had foung where the horse was down in the road on Forge Hill, one of them a white birch stick about six feet long that had.been cut from a ling. One of the sticks was bloody and had herse hair on it. For the defense Nathan Gilbert Gray, veterinarian, testified regarding the injuries to the horse, and Civil Engi- neer George E. Pitcher explained pho- tographs that he had taken of the location where the horse was in the road and where the horse was buried in_the pasture. William F. Whipple, a horse trader, testified that the horse was going slowly wher it was driven by in his sight. Frances J. Sfone gave testimony that she saw Mr. and Mrs. Douglass drive LY her home and that they were going carefully then. ¥ Charles, R. Douglass of ,Voluntown, a brother of the accused, toid what he knew about the case and claimed that the horse was sick with the colic and that his brother, the accused, was only using the whips on the animal in order to get it home where he could get medicine for it. He got tne nars? uilty. up after -it had fallen on Forge Hill and urged it along towards home un- til it was nearly there, when it Went down again. Then the accusea went home ang got mediciné of which he gave the horse two doses, but the horse died that night. They got the ox team and dragged it out to the pasture, where it was buried. This ended the testimony. Sentences Given in the Morning. Before the Douglass case was taken up in the morning the court was oc- cupied for half an hour in taking pleas and imposing sentences in several cases. vhen Byron Fargo pleaded guilty to taking $15 from a foreigner on the promise to get the man a job in the mill at Fitchville, he was finea $7% and costs, which he paid. Attorneys Barnes and Babcock made a plea for the accused. George Williams of New London was given eight months in jail when he pleaded guilty to stealing a horse that belongeq to Bernard Belgrade. He was leading it to Providence when arrested on June 24th, and the court was informed that the man had some trouble over pay and taking the horse was one way he selected to square matters. The case against Captain Clayton B. Cartwright and Daniel Sullivan, both bargemen, was called up. They were accused of breaking into the store of W. I. Maine at Groton where they secured goods valued at’ 95 cents. Sullivan pleaded guilty and said that, Captain Cartwright had nothing to do with the matter. - . Three men got drunk he said and ,one suggested breaking into the store, Attorney Douglass made a plea for Sullivan before sentence was pronounced. The case against Capt. Cartwright was nolled. Hayry Bailey, alias William Bailey, 17, pleaded guilty to stealing a_dollar Avatch from the power boat of Harbormaster Jackel in Norwich harbor on the night of April 14ith. The youns, man promised the court to do right and said that the only other time he had ever been arrested had, been for sleeping -out at night in the summer time. Attorney Douglass spoke to the court on his behalf. Bailey was sentenced to one year in jail, but execution was suspended and the' young man was placed on proba- tion. Accused of setting fire to woods in Voluntown, Henry Bennett was not put to plea but the case was nolled and Sheriff Brown gave him his lib- erty from the pen. § The sentence given Telephust Gileau of Sprague in the court on Wednesday was from one to five years in state's Prison and not from 5 to 20, as previ- ously stated.
