It has been establish- ed, however, that Mr. Gilchrist was a member of a Sons_ of Veterans' post at Taunton, and a member of the local post of Sons of Veterans has com- municated with the Taunton post. The announcement that the Con- necticut Company is to take over the local trolley line has been received here with a general approval. Some- how there seemed to be an impression that many of the road's troubles will disappear with the refiirn of control to the Connecticut Company and with Samuel Anderson as general manager. The public in towns hereabouts is not favorably disposed, however, toward, the announced programme of an in- crease in rates.

The truck was at Fast Killingly in Mr. Lewis’ possession wher Mr. HopKkins put in an appearance and claimed it. Court action {followed the dispute, each filing a suit against the other.

In his decision, which is in favor of Mr. Hopkins, Judge Hinman sdys in part: ‘ “It is a general rule that money in custodia legis or deposited with an officer of a court by court order can- not be reached by garnishment pro- ceedings by a creditor of a claimant of such funds. Money deposited in leu of bail with a court officer is said to be held in trust by said person for the state or government division to whom it would he forfeitgl in case of non-compli- &nice and for the depositor, and whether it can be attached by the (Continued on Page Seven, Col.
