J., vs. the town of Kiliingly was begun. Miss War- dell claims damages of $5,000 because of ‘what her-attorneys deseribe in the eom- ‘plaint as her “unlawful discharge” from her duties as supervisor of music in the schools of Killing®y and begause of the alleged injury that the discharge has done her prespects as a teacher, where- ever she may go. Miss Wardell's attorneys are Geary, Keefe and Davis of New London, Messrs. Keefe and Davis being in attendance at court. The town is represented by Af- torney E. L. Darbie, town counsel, and Attorney Charles E, Searls. In its defence the town sets up that Miss Wardell was employed without ex- Ppress contract; that she had no teacher's certificate ; that her serviees were of neg- ative value and lowered the efficiency of “the schools, and that she was given an opportunity to resign, but failed to take advantage of it; anmd, further, that she never again requested to be permit- ted to teach after she had received no- tice of her discharge. The hearing liearing the case is made up of L. Edwin Backus of Windham; George Potvin, E. L. Woed, of Putnam ; George B. Weaver, Ashford; Frank C. Loomis, Chaplin; George Cary, Arland Chapman, Scotland; Everett C. Fletcher, John A. Johnson, Thompson; L. J. Leay- itt, William Smith, Woodstack; Jirah F. Hyde, Hampton. Miss Wardell was ealled as the first witness. She told, under examination of Attorney Keefe of how she came to be emploved as supervisor of music in the town of Killingly and of her preparation for the work in which she was engaged. Miss Wardell related that in preparing herself to teach music that she studied for three vears at the New Engiand Conservatory of Music at Bostan; that, thereafter, she studied ‘for three years under private masters, followed this pre- paration with a course in publie school instruction of music under a master in Hartford and four summers studied at the school of musical- pedagogy at Northampton, receiving a diplowma for this 1course. Miss Wardell testified that, by invita- tion, she came to Danielson and met a sub-committee namedl by the town sehool committee to seek out and recommend a person to act as supervisor of music. This syb-committee was made up of Miss Emma F. Pilling, chairman, Robert W. Boys and Horaco X. Turner, supervisor of schools. Miss Wardell said that In company Wwith i members af thi8 cém- mittee she visited three different grades of the Daniclson graded school and gave demoristrations as to her ability to teach musiz.

A section of the state highway between the northerly line of the borough at Morin avenue and a point just above Judd avenue on the main route to Elm- ville is in such condition as to arouse the ire of all who have to travel over it. The surface of the highway is fairly riddled with holes, some of them large enough to | bury a liberal appropriation in. Most of this damage has been done by trucks. Quick action toward putting the highway in reasonably good condition is being de masded from all parts of the town.

At this point in the case Attorney Keefe asked as to whose signature appeared on the letter that Mis Wardell received, telling her that she had been accepted for appointment as a music supervisor in the schaols of Killingly. Miss War- dell replied that the signature was Mr. Turner' Mr. Searls inquired if this was the let- ter that Mr, Keefe proposed to estab- lish in court as the equivalent of a teachers’ cer(™wste and. Mr. Keefe re- plied in the affirmative. Mr. Searls then requested the court to excuse the jury in order that this point might be aruged and the jury was ex- cused. The attornoys then went into a diseus- sion as to yhether or not this letter of Mr. Turner's could he censidered as a certificate. Much of the ground cov- 2red in demurrers previously argued in the cast were gone over, Mr. Keefe con- tending that it being the imperative duty of the Killingly school committee_to is- sue a certificate; Miss Wardell could not be held responsible if one had not been given her and that the defence should not be allowed to set up its negligence — BORN.

The court recessed until 2 o'clock. At the afternoon se; Judge Keel- er ruled that unless a certificate iwsued to a teacher is signed by a majority of the members of the whole committee or by all of the members of a sub-com- mittee it cannot be considered, under the law, a legai'y madc certificate. Miss Wardell possessed no such certificate, as Mr. Turner's ‘etier, he'd by the plain- it to be an informal certificate, bore cnly his signatura, This ruling of the court brought the case to a standstill, but the court sug- gested that a course opsn t ‘he plain- 1iff's atorneys was to ask for an order of the court to obliga: he town schoul comm ek # certificate #v the boail r.‘.- have issued to her and have it datet back to the beginning of the period of employ- ment. Mr. Keefe asked for permission to ex- amine the records of the town school committee. This ~¥as granted and the records were produced by Sidney P. Marland, secretary of the schoel com: w tiee, and examined. Mr. Keefe later informed the court that the records were incomplete in import- ant particulars,*but that they would be corrected. It was then agreed that the caze would be continued indefinitely, as Mr. Keefe Will have to prepare and file his motion for an order to oblige the school commit- tee to issue a certificate. If he is suc- cessful in this effort the case will again come up after the certificate is issued, ’t\n"]l that probably will not be before next all. .
