Kingsley of Westeriy has commenced the inquest into the death of Benjamin Courtland Bentley, who died last week and who was assaulted at The Eim cottage at Narragansett at Eastertime. Mr. Bentley's eves were blackened and he received a cut on his cheek. While on the return trip to Westerly Mr. Bentley asked the two men who were with him to keep the assault a secret, for the sake of his mother and his wife, and he would tell them he was injured in an automobile accident. Up to that time there had been no such accident, but they had not proceeded far when a_touring car struck and! disabled the Bentley car. The two men did comply with Mr. Bentley's request. | The row at The Elm started when Joseph Girard, a giant in stature, with- out provocation, called Mr. Martin the vilest of names, and Martin_resented and knocked Girard down. Mr. Bent- ley was assaulted when in front of The Elm and near the automobile. Neither AIr. Flynn nor Mr. Martin witnessed the assault, but Mr. Bentley said he was attacked by two men. He was far from being unconscious, as he planned the story he was to tell his mother and wife, and did not go to his Shore road home for a day or two afterward, but remained near his place of busi ness in Westerly. The death certificate signed by Dr. Payne specifies that death was due to “hemorrhage of the brain, following in- juries.” When this certificate was signed the injuries were attributed t the automobile story. If the coroner| finds that death was due to the assault at Narragansett Pier. an autopsy will probably be performed. Chief of Police Smith of Narragan- tt has started inves in just what happened on e Sunday night at The Elm cottage. Th chief was asked: “Now that officia action has been taken by Attorney eneral Rice toward holding an in- . have you taken any action| i ating replied Chief Smith. L use has Patrolman Brown- [ing made for not making an official report of the assault that is said to have taken place at the Elm He did make an official report. He said he had been cailed in to quiet a disturbance.” Do yvou know where Patrolman Browning was while the quarrel in the Elms was takin place?” He was outside. He said that when he entered the Elms the mén were at- tracted by his uniform and that either | one of the Westerly men or Mr. Ryder asked him to step outside. The patrol- man did so and when he returned rthing seemed to have quieted In whose name was censed at that time?” The Elm Cottage corporation. T think there are three or four men in| it.” “Did Patrolman Browning report that the fight on Easter Sunday night | took place in the barroom?” “He did not say where the disturb- ance took place.” “Does the hotel license: held by the | Elm Cottage corporation permit it to open the barroam on Sundays?” “No. Tt merely permits them serve drinks with meals. Have you done anything toward | ascertaining whether the barroom at| | the ims was open on that might?" i “No. But I am going to find ou will start out and find out just wha did take place there.” the Elms H- to i t of Dr. Payne Tuesday afternoon and the testimony of Drs. Rogers and Smith, specialists, who attended Mr. Bentley, will be taken in Providence.| Should the coroner find, from the med- ical men's sworn statements, that Mr. Bentley died from injuries inflicted upon him, the body will be exhumed and and autopsy held to determine the character of the injuries.
