Norwich Bulletin, Willimantic Office, 23 Chureh St. Telephone 105. The first case considered in the super- tor court Friday was the uncuriosted diverce suit of Walter B. Colby vs. Li Lan E. Colby. The petition:r testifrd| -that he married June 3, 135, at Roch- daie, Mass. and that his wi ia 1908, as she wanted to home of her mother. Miss Eifxé M. Col. by of Auburn, Mass, and Fraus l'otvin «# Putnam testified that Jo'vy had mot lived with his wife for some time. Theve are two sons both oxver age. & divorce was granted on the grounds of Cercrtis The continued case of Bartholomew A. Moran vs. the City of Willimantic, which has occupied the attention of the court since Wednesday, was _resumed. The first witness called was City Engi- neer Robert .E. Mitchell who testified that he recommended the removal of one or possibly two of the trees on Lewiston avenue. He visited the loca- tion with Alderman Holbrook, Mayor D. P. Dunn and Corporation Counsel T. J. Kelly in regard to the proposed change in grade at the intersection of Lewiston avenue and Chestnut street. He thought the question of the trees came up at that time, and he was of the opin- lon that one or two of the trges might have been saved. Ex-Mayor Daniel P. Dunn testified to. the controversy about the proposed change of grades; the question of the disposition of the trees came yp but he Qid not remember its result. He did not. recollect IMVing called Mr. Moon in front of whose home the trees were lo- cated. He didn't know the trees were cut down within an hour after their visit to the site, bt remembered that Mr. Moon had told him the trees were being cut down. On cross-examination Mr. Dunn stated he did not give any orders for the cutting of the trees. He had heard Mr. Mitchell remark that some of the trees would have to be cut. Charles M. Holbrook, alderman-at- large at that time, testified that he as chairman of the street committee could remember no discussion over the cut- ting down of the trees. Mr. Moon did not come out, he thought, and he never calied Mr. Moon on the telephone. On cross examination he claimed he had no authority to give orders to cut the trees. When Attorney Kelly, = representing the defense, was called to the stand by Attorney Foss for the plaintMf there was considerable argument but finally Mr. Kelly took the stand, and from the time he began until he finished there was battle of wits between him and Mr. Foss. Mr. Kelly at first denied that it was a part of his official duties to act in legal capacity for the various commit- tees but admitffited he sometimes did so when his opinfon was sought. He thought Mr. Moon came out at the ‘time he and the other city officials .were there, and wanted to know how the pro- posed changes would affect his property. He did not remember Mr. Moon's asking to have the trees saved. He denied hav-! ing @ telephone conversation . with Mr. Moon. John Collins, former superintendent of gewers and sidewalk inspector, claimed he never gave Mi. Moran orders to cut down the trees and to the best of his knowledge was not called into the Moon home to answer a telephone call. He claimed men employed by Mr. Moran cut the trees. Attorneys Kelly and Foss had stirred up some feeling up to this time. Frederick L. Mott of Lewiston ave- nue stated Mr. Moran had used his tele- phone prior -to cutting down the trees and he heard the name of Holbrook used in the conversation. George C. Moon testified to talking Wwith the city offi- clals on the day the trees were cut. He was not sure they came by appointment but remembered asking them to come up. The conversation about the trees and the grade took place that morning. Com- ing home at noon ‘he found the trees he- ing cut down. He could not remember having conversation with Mr. Holbrook on the matter. He had one of the tree stumps at home now in use as a chop- ping block and it measured 13 to 14 inches in iameter. On eross examina- tion he admitted Mr. Moran had sued him for putting in the curbing and a counter claim had been made by him for damage resulting from the cutting of the trees. This was done, by his attorney, Samuel B. Harvey, and not upon his ree- ommendation. He helieved the trees were to be spared, although the city officials had not promised this. M Elizabeth J. Moon, wife of the previous witness, testified that she catled Mr. Collins into her home to answer a telephone call for him and when he came out he ordered the men “to cut ’‘em down,” which they did. Mrs. Lena F. Robinson of Lewiston avenue testified to seeing Mrs. Moon go after Mr. Col- lins and said the trees ‘were cut down soon afterwards. The city officials were | there in the morning. Mrs. Olive Hall of Chestnut street claimed to have seen the city officials in that neighborhood on an- afternoon about three days previous to the day when trees were removed. Judge Otto B. Robinson told of talk-| ing with the officials at the time men- tioned, about the change of grade and saving the trees. He had a chopping block made of one of them that meas- ured 12 to 13 inches in diameter and was taken from the third cut up on that tree. Ex-Mayor Dunn, Mr. Holbrook and Mr. Mitchell could not remember hay- ing been at this place but onee, this he- ing at 9 in the morning; _Wheelbarrows introduced as - exhibits B8 to the proper mixture being used brought forth lively arguments from the attorneys in the case. The afternoon session began at 2 o'- clock with arguments for the plaintiff and the defense. The arguments closed at 415 o'clock, Judge John E. Keeler reserving his decision.

Yesterday morning, Friday, Mr. Krug received a letter marked Lemberg, Ga-j lieta, and unon ovening it he found it} was from his brother Max, who had written to him after being traced by a letter Mr. Krug had written to respon- sible parties in that country. In the letter Mr. Krug's brother stat~d he and his mother were well and would try to reach this country this coming summer.
