The first case assigned for trial is state of Rhode Island against Charles Bailey, indicted on the charge of murder in shooting his brother, Edgar A. Bailey. The court assigned Attorney A. T.'L. Ledwidge of Westerly as coun- gel for the accused last Friday. It is therefore probaple that Mr. Ledwidce may ask for a few days' more time to prepare the defense. The shooting occurred on the night o1 Qct. 23 in the Bailey horie off Hobart street. Charles Bailey came home late and found his mother who ,is 80, and his brother Kdgar, 56, seated in the kitchen. Charles, who is 59, was in an intoxicated ! condition. There were some words of criticism and Charles took the lantern, went ug) to his room and sgon returned with his revolver. He had returned to the kitchen but a short while when the revolyer was discharged. Hdgar _cried “I'm shof Charles said “I'z sorry Get g foctor. quick! Charles then left the Dr. Henry L. Juhnson was summoned, cn;led the ambulance of the Westerly itary corps, and Bdgar Bailey was to the Lawrence-Memorial Ass iated hospitals, where he died three days Iater. The first notice the Westerly po- lice received of the shooting was when Dr. Johnson telephoned the information trom the New London hospital. Charles Bailey made his escape and about there weeks later was captured in Maine. The shooting was on a Saturday night and, according to Bailey, who had t two nights in the woods, he rode to Providence in & motor truck the fol- lowjng Monday. He took a train from there to Boston, where he spent a day, and then proceeded to Maine, where he bad lived before coming to Westerly two years ago. Twe days after the shooting Coroner Everett A. Kingsley resigned ai™® there was no official resignation until the ap- pointment of John Ferguson, Jr., on the first Monday of the present month. With Pbllc: Chief Brown, the coroner cbtained names of places in Maine where Bnile)' had resided or did business as a horse trader. With this vague informa- tion, Chief Brown, accomnanied by Spe- cial Officer Max Reithal, in the latter's automobile, started Saturday, Nov. 6, for Portland, and arrived in that city the same night With the aid of Portland police, the livery stables of that city Were visited, but there was no trace of Bailey. The Westerly officers were advised to drive to Yarmouth, 60 miles distant, and consult with Deputy Sheriff George Gerow, who has the reputation of know- ing the haunts of every horse trader in that section of the state. Mr. Gerow was consulted and the search was begun for Walker. The trail led to Bowdoinham, and the service of Deputy Sheriff Robert Jack was enlisted. Finally Bailey was located ‘at the Tom Allen place in Bow- doinham. The house was surrounded. ‘When Sheriffi Jack attempted to enter the house by the back door, Bailey bolted out of the front door and ran for the tall t through here in the forenoon, each being made up of six coaches, all well filled.

Denrehy, chief clerk at the Blfln of ex-Mayor Daniel P.

Mr. Dennehy came to this city from Ireland when a small boy and attended St. Joseph's school. In Novem- ber, 1888, at 13, he entered the employ of Mr. Dunn and William J. Sweeney, who then conducted the business in the Brainerd house block. A few years later when Mr. Dunn took over the store on Railroad street he promoted Mr. Dennehy to clerk. During the many years that Mr. Dunn has represented the town of Wind- ham in the icgisiiture and during his term as state comptroller Mr. Dennehy had much of the responsibility of running the store.

The start for Wester- ly was made Sionday morning and Chief Brown, Special Officer Reithal, with Bailey as prisoner, arrived here after about 12 hours of travel. The next day | (Tuesday) Bailey was given a hear: before Clerk M. Walter Flynn and was held for appearance at the fegular session of the Third district court the following Friday. He reiterated his plea of not guilty, waived examination and was held | for the grand jury of the superior court which convened at Kingston the follow’: Monday.

Here's what happened: “Charley, let's go to the Yale- Harvard football game!” “Would like to go. Will go if you'll get the tickets.” “That's the poser,” said Leo.
