Allison Potter, both of North Woodstock, came to a sud- den and dramatic climax in the midst of taking the testimony before Judge hris- topher Avery in the Windham county su- perior court in Putnam Thursday when, after an hour on the stand. during which she reiated sordid detalls of her married life, Mrs. Potter broke down and in an- swer to a question from Attorney Willlam King of Willimantic as to her present at- titude toward her husband, she declared pathetically “I love him.* The case has attracted mmuch attention in this section of the county because of the prominence of the parties involved, and the court room was filled witn wit- nesses and neighbors of the couple. Mrs. Potter Was represented by Attorney Charles Torrey of Putnam, and Mr. Pot- ter by Attorney Willlam King of Willl- mantic and Attorney Henry D. Montague of Southbridge, Mass. Conterences between attorneys and the parties in the case occupied over an hour when court opened. and it was nearly noon when the taking of evidence began. The testimony of Mrs. Potter was given in a faint voice, and it was evident that she was suffering from great emotional strain. Many times she wept. When her final admission that she loved her hus- band came there was a flurry in the court room and those present experienced a dramatic scene that is rarely met with except behind the footlights. Mrs. Potter was the first witness to go on the stand, and she was examined by Attorney Torvey. She testified that she has been married a little over 15 years and that except for & few months spent in Elliotts she has lived alt of this time in the town of Woodstock. She has been on the present farm in North Woodstock for seven years. Four children, witness declared, have been born to her and her husband, of which the oldest is now 14 and the youngest 6. Attorney Torrey, after this Introductory material, launched directly into questions concerning the 14 specific allegations of cruelty included in the petition for di- vorce. These 14 cover a period of nearly three years. Witness testified that the trouble between her and her husband had its beginning 2 1ittle over three years ago, when on one occasion she found him “in a compromising situation with his cousin.” The cousin referred to, it was later developed in the testimony, was a 15 year old girl, a second cousin of Mr. Potter.

OPEN MAY TO N‘OVEMBER Tmrnfl“ DANIELSON 439-4, —_—mmmm——— testified that she had a severe mervous breakdown, and most of her difficulties in connection with her married life have transpired since then. The first of the specific allegations mentioned by the wit- ness was May 15, 1921, on which date she testified that her husband, after making what she termed “excessive demands” upon her, drew a revolver and flourished it. He also at this same time, she said on the stand, slapped her so that her nose bled. = Mrs. Potter testified that during June. July and August of the same year her husband on numerous occasions maltreat- ed her, and was cruel, beating - her, striking her, and causing her bodily in- jury. On the 4th of October she testified that her husband threatened to choke her to death, and beat her. On another day he struck her in the eye, causing it to swell and become black. On Nov. 16, 1921, Mrs. Potter sald her husband beat her and in striking at her by accident hit their oldest; daughtér, Lorraine, causing her nose to bieed. On Christmas day, 1921, Mrs. Potter testified that early in the morning her husband came into her room and beat her because she would not accede to certain of his wishes. He treated her so roughly, she said, that her garments were torn from her body. Two days later Potter, according to the witness, had another fit of anger when, coming home at night, he found that the chores on the farm had not been done. Her father was present at the time. Mrs, Potter-told the court that when she saw her husband was angry she left the room, taking her youngest child with her. The husband, she said. followed, and when in her room made a motion as though to draw a Tevolver and said “I'll clean the bunch up” Alarmed, ‘she declared she took the children and went down the road the occasion. When East Killingly sends out an announcement that it has eémbark- ed upon some patriotic enterprise it is well for these who run to read, for East Killingly is a community that never does things by halves. Therefore its celebra- tion of the Fourth will be of sufficient magnitude to interest outsiders who en- joy an old-time celebration of the day, and they will be welcomed. At his home on the West Side Thurs- day afternoon funeral services for Row- land J. Coon were conducted by Rev. Charles C. Tibbetts, of the Danielson Methodist Episcopal church, assisted by Rev. N. H. Burton, pastor of the Putnam Methodist Episcopal church and Rev. Mr. Scoville of New London. The service was attended by a delegation from Quinebaug lodge, L O. O.

The court will be asked to approve the receiver's deed given follow- ing_the recent sal of the Fernlea mill at East Killingly to a Providence party. This is one of the final steps to be taken in closing up the affairs of the Fernlea company, of which Alfred Pate is the receiver. Ofl for the borough street that are to receive a coating of it probably will be put on next week, at least that was the forecast on Thursday. Teams are now engaged in distributing gravel along the sides of the streets to be oiled and will | be ready for covering the ofl immediately after it is applied. Abutting property owners will meet the cost of the street oiling. Chlef John McFarland has arranged for the round-up for what is describ- ed as a gang of hoodlums engaged in nightly disturbance of the peace in ter- ritory about North street and Morin ave- nue. Complaints have been recefved by the police of the wild going on of this gang and requests made that they be supressed. Only recently a false alarm of fire was pulled in from a point near North and Main street and there is an inclination in police circles to bellove that there is some connection between this incident and others about which complaints have been received. This belng a wet week almost to the point of saturation, it may not be inap- propriate to make mention at this time that with all the water that came to drench the earth . there was an added dluge brought about by the destruction squad in charge of doing away with in- | toxicants seized in various ralds during the past six weeks. This means that the police station has been cleared on af an accumulation of arrels sufficient to make a showing in an old-time saloon. Several hundred gallons of cider gurgled through bung- holes and onto the ground to mingle with the non-intoxicant beverage coming down from the skies. In furthering of this backyard cocktail a few gallons of white mule and a gross or two of Jakey was used. The grass is said to have fair- ly curled up and died under the down- pour of beverages. Onme man is alleged to declare that what used to be known as “a fine bun” can be obtained by walking over the spot and at 20 years there is kick enough left to make a flapper forget her clgarettes. Supervisor Leon M. Farrin of the schools in Killingly has given out the fol- lowing list of 16 pupils who attended every session during the school year just closed: Meizyslaw Kogut, Roger Nash, Earl Clements, Gorodn Gallup, Mildred Tillinghast, Albert Nash, Franklin Adams, Bertha Albro, Edward Nash, Ruth Shoales, Helen Long, Frederick Long, Robert Nash, Henry C.

A few days later witness sald she was in the cellar when her husband came down and attacked her. He attempted to pick up an axe on the floor but she pre- vented this by putting her foot on it, at which she said he exclaimed “T'll get you vet and knock your block oft.” Two days iater she declares Potter again attacked her, forced her into the pantry adjoining the kitchen, w | re she was doing her work, and tried to choke her. He threat- ened to tear her ciothes off, and at this point she testified that she dropped un- consclous. She testified that when she recovered her throat was sore and swol- len. Her husband was outside in a chalr and she tried to talk with him. Mrs. Pot- ter stated on the stand that at this her husband declared that he owned her and would show her that he did. He then grabbed a butter paddle but did not strike her, she said. She immediately tried to cun away from his grasp, but he dragged her back and locked the house door, put- ting the key in his pocket. For two hours, witness testified, she and her husband ran about the lower floor of the house, she trying to elude him and he trying to catch her. She said that all of this time he was “velling and growling.” During the following month her hus- band on several occasions attacked her, the witness said, but on Feb, 27 came one of the most serious ones, according to her story. On this day she declares her hus- band struck her on the jaw, causing her to fall over a morris chair. Hearing her scream, her -son came to the room and the father, she testified. turned and kick- ed him in the stomach, Her father, who was living with the family, came in and remonstrated with her husbard, offering to do anything he could to make thelr life pleasanter. He offered to make his home elsewhere, but ,according to Mrs. Potter, her husband did not want her father to leave. The following morning her husband ‘was cross at breakfast and! left for a trip to Webster, Mass., in an angry mood. He returned late that night and as it was cold she prepared and brought him his breakfast near a radiator. At this he sald, according to the witness, “T didn't know you cared so much for me” At this point in her testimony Mrs. Potter gave way to tears and It was some few seconds before she could comnose herselt sufficiently to continue with her testl- mony. She then went on to declare that within an hour her husband had “‘another ugly fit.” The direct examlnation closed Wwith certain testimony concerned with her husband’s property. Witness said that jast July her husband had given her a deed for ome-half of the farm on which they lived. a farm of nearly 185 acres. Attorney King then questioned Mrs. Potter, beginning his examination with the Webster trip and Mr. Potter’s return. He got the witness to admit that at this time she cared for her husband, and she realized, by what he said, that he also cared for her. for the first 12 or 13 years her married her husband got along well together. of that family. together on many occasions. all that had come. 33 years old and her husband 39.
