Keeler of ‘the superior-céurt i & d cision handed down by him en Tue: day in the suit of Sarrofini Montes, a minor, of this city, against Frank T. Preston of Killingly for $10.000. The verdict given for the plaintiff does not carry expenses of bospital er medical treatment, with which, the judge says in his memorandum of decision, the father of the boy is chargeable, but he is of the opinion that they can be re- covered in a legal action broifght by the father against the defendant in this case. g The case was tried in this city sev- eral weeks ago, with Attorneys Doug- lass and A. L. Brown appearing for ‘the plaintiff and Attorney Pierce of 2 | Waterbury for the defendant. It was claimed that the Montes boy had been hit and badly injured by an automo- bile owned by Mr. Preston and driven on West Thames street near the junc. tion of High street on Auyg. 3, 1916. The claim was also made that the boy, who was § years old at the time, had suffered injuries that had permanently retarded his growth and deyvelopment, mentally and physically. In his memorandum of Judge Keeler says in part: I cannot | accept the version of the eircum- stances of the injury inflicted on the plaintiff outlined in the testimony of the defendant and his witnesses.

The absence of the defend- ant’s daughter, who drove the car, quite casually and inadequately ac- counted for, counts against the defend- ant. Bhe was clearly a witnéss of the first importance and should have been produced or her depesition taken. The contradictory statements of tl chauffeur of the New Haven car and the other occupant who testified as to the fact of the ice wagen being in front of the house at the time of the injury destroyed in my mind any value of the testimony from that source. find that the ice wagon was not at that time in front of the House, but was there afterward. Judge Keeler finds that the evi- dence showed the driver of the car had a clear view for 240 feet and was negligent in not seeing the hoy and in not sufficiently checking the car so as not to hit him. Had the driver exer- cised the care called for, the boy would not have been hit. He finds that the car was being driven at the rate of 25 miles an hour, which in jt- self constituted negligence in that par- ticular spot in the highway. = On the point of the injuries to the boy, without aceepting the testimony of Dr. Donohue in fuil, the judge finds that his growth was retarded, but he may now be said to have recovered and will develop normally WiLL ESTABLISH ARMY SCHOOL OF NURSING. Surgeon General’s Announcement At- tracts Attention of Norwich Women. Norwich women who have been con- sidering that one of the ways in which they wanted to be of aid during the period of the war have noticed with much interest the announcement made in the July number of the American Journal of Nursing regarding the re- cent establishment of the army school of nursing by the surgeon general under the medical department of the army. This coffer to women desiring to care for the sick and wounded sol- diers in America, a course leading to a diploma i nursing, should the mili- tary hospitals continue in operation for the full period of the course. Should the war cease before the three years’ course is complete, credit will be given in a certificate by the army school of nursing, which will entitle the holder to recognition by such mili- tary hospitals as may subsequently accept her as a student. The course extends over a period of three year: Credit of nine months or appr an academic year will be gi aduates of accredited colleges of three or more months v e given to students who 1d two or more vears of college proved technical schools. To to the army school of nursing candidates must be between and 35 years of age, in good physi- cal condition, zood moral character d graduates of recognized high schools. Special consideration will he given to those candidates who have taken the course in elementary hygiene and home care of the sick, providing they meet ‘the requirements for admission.

Sy- mon, formeriy a New Haven printer, now considered in a hopeless condition at the Norwich State Hospital is de- fied and the cBmplaint dismissed. Represented by the law firm of Fitz- Gerald & Walsh, Mys. Symon brought action on the grounds that the defend- ant concealed from her prior to and at the time of marriage his true mental condition, and the marriage was fraudulent. Public Defender Charles C. Ford represented Symon. Attorneys say it is the first time a divorce libel hae been brought on these grounds, that the action estab- lished a precedent and the outcome has been watched with much interest by the legal fraternity. According to statement of counsel for Mrs. Symon, the casge will now go to the mnremo] court by reservation. It is an action that has been in the courts since the first, of the y<ar.

The State | UBGE NOT PERSONALLY LIABLE Though He Acted. in Excess of Juris- diction—Decision in East Lyme Case. ? . E Probate Judge Austin I. Bash of East Lyme iu‘g d not personally lia- ble for damages from the way in which he handled as probate judge the matter of the estate of the late Clara M. Root of ¥ast Lyme, according to a decision handed down by Judge John H. Keeler of the superior court on Tuesday, al- though Judge Keeler gays that Mr, Bush undeniably acted in excess of the jurisdiction of the probate court. The case was brought it Judge Bush by Olivia' A. Case of East Lg‘me. 2 sister of Mrs. Root.

If to this fact there be added the fact that he acted maliciously or corrdptly he would plainly be personally liable. From the facts proved, however, I cannot find malice or corruption. The de- fendant 'in disposing of the proceed- ings which form the subject mdtter of this action acted heedlessly, erro- neously and without regard to the re- sponsibilities and proprieties of his of- fice. Although nominally an attorney at law and occasionally practicing as such, he apparently had no knowledge of the law relating to the matter in hand, and although his attention was called by counsel to the law bearing on the case, he omitted in any way to inform himself. But mere stupidity and ineptitude, however gross, cannot constitute malice; and there are no other facts in the case from which malice or corruption can be inferred or found. - The case then turns upon the claim of the plaintiff that his acts in excess of jurisdiction rendereq the defendant liable. The 'argument in support of this contention is, briefly, that the de- fendant had no jurisdiction of the subject matter, that the subject mat- ter of administration by the probate court is unadministered property of a deceased person, and that there was no such property concerned. As a fact there was not. Hence the proceedings were entirely coram non judice. The answer to this contention is that the probate court had jurisdiction of the class of cases including unadministered estate of a decedent, and that the e sch of S ing flig con fiel nos ins pla the mo ‘bro vol to Ost ma; Sy % > roneous and void assumption of juris :‘frfa}‘\i: -,;;’::“:" zf %Ygl“:’{:- diction in the particular case did not are at PR "I“’ =% i‘i‘“{ Hav 0 render defendant liable personally.
