H, Geissler disposed of two cases in the city court Monday morning. George Rockford, 50, was| sentenced to the state farm for ine- | briates at Norwich for a period of six | montks. He is a man of clean ap-| bearance, but has been' piling up a; lengthy court record here. i Last' November he svas arrested for | having been - intoxicated and was let} off upon payment of costs. During the same month he was in again on/ the same charge. He was given 33j days in jail. When released he went ! to Linwood, Mass., and then returned | to this vicinity. In May he was again | arrested and sentenced to, 30 days and | ‘was released from jail last Thursday.: Saturday night again found him lock- { ed up at the police station here. His record, the vourt was convinced, had earned for him something more than a jail sentence, so he was sent to the | state farm until the first of the next| year, when he will have an opportu- nity to make resoiutigns and try er{ in the open once more. On a charge of intoxication Joseph Terian was given 39 days in jail and 30 days more for breach of the peace. OBITUARY Dr. Louis O. Morasse.
