Holmes of this city by the jury in the superior court at New London, where he has been on trial since siay 21 on the charge of assault with intent to kill land murder Capt. James Lennen at the captain’s home on the hight of Dec. 5th last. The verdict was on the next lesser degree of the crime than that on which he was tried and shewed the opinion of the jury that there had been no malice aforethought in the at- tack made upon Capt. Lennen. The verdict was returned at 3.20 af- ter the jury had had the case about an hour and a half. After a wait of about another hour and a half during which counsel for Holmes conferred and the state’s attorney conferred with Judge William S. Case, the state moved for sentence. Pleas for leniency for\Holmes were made by Attorney Arthur M. Brown and Attorney Jeremiah J. Desmond and were answered by State’s Attor- ney Hull before Judge Case sentenced Holmes to not less than two nor more than four years in state’s prison. Shortly afterwards Deputy Sheriff Ca seéy took Holmes to the jail in Ne London to await transfer to state's prison. In making the plea for clemency Attorney Brown spoke first , saying that he felt the story the accused man had told must have been told though a belief in his own Innocency or in an abnormal state of mind. The at- torney referred to the blameless char- acter of the accused up to this time, .| the wife and family of three children he had, and the suffering that he had ;| already borne through the experiences of two long trials. rie hoved the ' | judge might see that the ends of jus- tice might be met by imposing a fine of $500. Attorney Desmond referred to his long acquaintance with the family of the accused and the great personal shock this accusation and verdict was to him and also referrcd to what seemed an abnormal state of mind as an explanation of tae commission of the crime. Judge (Cuse interrupted L him to remark that this was the first he had heard of any mention of a mental disturbance in this case. In pronouncing sentence Judge Case said he would like to, but he could see no grounds for leniency. On the face of the verdict, this conviction carried with it conviction on two other crimes, attempted burglary at the Lennen house and the fixing up of the alleged receipt. The case had been thoroughly tried, said the judge, in fact, one of the most thoroughly tried he had ever known, and the accused could find no fault with the effort that had been made by his counsel. While he was sorry for the accused and for his family severe punishment was de- served and he pronounced the sentence already mentioned. Holmes received announcement of the verdict and the sentence without a trace - of emotion, but his two brothers-in-law, John R. Tarrant and Richard L. Tarrant, who have stood loyally by him throughout, seemed much affected. They sat by him in the | court room while he awaited sentence. Mrs. Holmes and her three children who had been in court during the morning were not present when the verdict and sentence were pronounced but waited in a nearby building in the neighborhood. When court opened in the morning Attorney John C. Geary occupied ‘an hour in making the final argument for the defense. Argument For Defense. This case is somewhat novel in char- acter, said Atorney Geary as he open- ed his argument, in that a man with- out a blot on his character or reputa- tion is brought to the bar of justice accused of this crime and for six out JUNE 6 1919 : 54 | EORN- MARRIOTT—In Oneco, June 3, 1919, a daughter to Mr. and Mrs. James .

No peculiar powers attach to the state in this case, Major Hull argued, and the accused has had the benefit of three of the ablest attorneys, among whom s the ‘generalissimo of the Norwich police force,” the force that has been accused of lying and per- jury, not by the mayor, but by his as- sociates. This assault was the work of a noviee, for the man who struck, stiuck and ran. If he had not been a|— novice he would have taken the watch and other valuables from the safe. Major Hull went on to commend the work of the Norwich police foree, which he said Liad been done with a conser- vatism and care that is rare among policemen, and he commended them highly to the mayor as efficient and valuable officers.

Carroll saw the blood spot. bright red, continued the state’s attorney. Blood Erxpert Brown says it couldn’t be red, but Holmes said it might be red paint at the police station. All the officers had their attention called to this spot at the house. The police knew about the bloody gloves and they saw the stains on the tablecloth 20 minutes before Holmes got to the house. The worn place on the thumb and the torn place on the little finger fitted the marks on the tablecloth, and the defense had had the same oppor- ! tunity as the state to find out whether there was blood on the palm side of the gloves. The state’s attorney argued that the time as fixed hy the police at the sta- tion house made it possible for Holmes Charch & Allen FUIVERAL - DIRECTORS EMBALMERS | Lady Assistant Telephone 328-3 HENRY E.

If Captain Lennen had forgotten about the pay- ment of the note there would surely have been some record of it, one side or the other. He was the last man in the world to suspect Holmes of any wrong until the evidence brought him to it. Unless the note has been paii, the whole defense fails. Nobody saw Holmes between 8 and 9 o'clock that night, the attorney continued, and as to motive, Holmes knew that Captain Lennen had made a will and expected that it might be something like Mrs. Lennen’s that would benefit him. In Iconc!udinz. he claimed that the weight of the evidence removes all reasonable 92 Fifth Street.

Sup- posing that Captain Lennen's story is accepted as true, argued the attorney what motive is there discoverable? It wasn’t necessary for Holmes to kill Captain Lennen to get the nofe. If it had been discovered missing from the safe, Holmes could have said it was in the tin box at the bank and Cap- tain Lennen would never have known the difference. If Holmes had been intending to kill the captain, he would have got the securities out of the tin box before he did it so that they wouldn't be discovered after- wards. Not a penny of Captain Len- nen’s property is missing. As to the bloody marks on the table cloth, the attorney asked how could a glove make finger prints if there were no blood on the palm of the glove and he charged that the state had been unfair in not trying to find out whether there were traces of blood in the palm. If those finger prints were made by gloves, they were some oth- er gloves and worn by some other man. Mr. Geary declared. Why didn’t the state produce a lock- smith, he asked. to show that the kej was not of the kind made 20 years ago. The alibi is a perfect one and is proved, not by relatives, but by casual persons. The appearance of Mr. Holmes that night at the Lennen house is explainable by his illness with grip but at other places that night nothing unusual as to shortness of breath or asthma or agitated man- ner was noticed. The police had a theory, the attorney argued, and, to speak plainly, somebody had to lie to support it. Officer Carroll's zeal over- came his notion of truth. Holmes did the natural thing for anyone to do when he saw Captain Lennen. Who are vou going to believe, Dr. Cassidy or the others? The attorney attacked the testimony of Donovan who he said hadn’t spoken to Mr. Holmes for a year, and went on to discuss the impossibility of a man committing this assault after the clock struck nine and getting to Pul- aski hall at the time Sergeant Blood said that he saw him there. It was a natural thing for a receipt to have heen given if .the note , had been mislaid and Holmes had offered to show the receipt to the police but they didn't go to see it. As to the testimony on the handwriting given by experts, the attorney eclaimed the experts put on by the defense out- classed those put on by the state as the sun outshines the moen.
