DANIELSON It was announced Monday that Victor Perreault has disposed of his interests in the Eastern Conmecticut Forestry sompany to Thomas McCullough of Bos- ton, who is to come into this. territory n the near future to assume control of \he business. Mr. Perreault will rerain Yis econnection with the business for a serfod of about six months fn asSoctation with the manager. Monday brought what might ho termed t sunrise report on the Connectciut Mills® sompany ; in-other words, the latest in- ‘ormation is. that the company is coming through what his Been more or less of v dark period = financially with flying solorg—and {he sun was shining Monday, and every thing looked good for a quick and satisfactory adjustment of any money difficulties that have beset the sompany in the past year and a half. This is excellent news for Danlilson, not only, for the large -number of emploves and for the stockholders, but as well for the-business interests of the community. More cannot_be said in print at tis time, but it may be written down that things seem very favorable at this time— and for this ail are grateful. Here's a new bootlegger story that seems worthy of a place in print—it is %o different and so novel. Without spec- Itying locations or the person involved in the interesting incident, it may be set down here that a responsible resident of Killingly was riding along one of the back road rdutes in town one day last week—one of those rainy days when sountry roads were awash—and wonder- Ing:if his motor truck would keep run- ning. all day when,. rounding a sharp turn in the narréw and crooi:d 4oad, he zame almost head-on upon a Rhode Is- \and sedan, making its way into this town. In getting out of the - way the truck’s motor stalled and the big ma- chine stopped dlagonally across the road blocking it and holding up the sedan. All of which gets us down to the talk that ensued between the drivers of the truck and sedan. “Can’t you drive that thing?” petulently inquiréd the driver of the sedan. The driver of the truck took his time about climbing down off the seat of the vehicle and then inquired of the aedan, “Are you in a terrible hurs ry? \ Getting around to the front end of the truck the driver noticed something pe- sullar about the “women” in ihe back wat of the gedan and turning n3 asked fellow a drink?". The sedan driver looked a little tur-| prised at first, but he finally came across and said, “If you are a good scout £nd keep vour mouth shut, T'll do just that | thing for you” : But the truck driver was not drinking that morning and he let the situation go by with a smile. However, one look at the “ladies” in the rear seat of that, sedan and tipped him off. They were merely wax figures, all dolled up with modigh hats, coats and yefls—and the body of the sedan was loaded to capacity ‘with ‘bottles of booze. It is assumed that the wax figures were being carried to -deceive persons who would get only a quick glance at' the car while it was in motion to create the jm- pression that two business men were out on a little ride with their wives, It is the newness of the stunt that makes it interesting, for booze running has become a regular occupation with practically certain returns, . nothwith- standing the number of successful raids that go on. \At St. Mary’s church in Putnsm Mon- day morning John O'Neil of Dayville and Miss Minne E.

PUTNAM Judge Marvin of the superior court nas rendered his decision in the case of Os- car Rich against his father, Jesse E. Rich. and orders that an accounting of tha partnership be made. The case at- tracted much interest when it was tried last April as the family is prominent and haa lived many years in Putnam. The son was working in his uncle’s silk mill and according to his story his father approached him and asked him to go’ into business with him. This he did, loaning his father a small amount ot money. The balance of the mopey was raised on a loan, Mrs. Rich, the boy's mother, putting up collateral for the loan. For some time the son drew no stated sum but took such cash as he needed for his personal wants. The son was contemplating getting marriéd and asked his father to fix a sum for him to draw weekly. This was done. The bus- iness was conducted under the name of J. E. Rich & Son, which trade name ap- peared on the sign over the store and'on the stationary. A few months before the action was started there was some trouble between father and son which resulted in the son's being denied admittance to the store. The son retained as counsel P. J. Danahey of Willimantic and the father retained Samuel B. Harvey of tne same city. The case went to trial last April and the decision has been awalted with a great deal of Interest by the people of Putnam. Judge Marvin’s memorandum of decis- ion filed with the clerk of court, Mon- day, is as follows: “This is a case of son agalnst father in which the marriage of the son seems to have played some part. Uefors his marriage the son went to work with his father in a business which was pur- chased from A. M. Douty, December 1914. 'The boy put some of his own money into the purchase and the father borrowed on collateral furnished by the mother for the major part of the pur- chase price. The son's advancement to thq project has been returned to him and the mother’s collateral has been re- leased as security for the original in- debtedness. . “The evidéence as to what the ar- rangement between the father and son was is entirely parole, the former saying that it was a purely tentative affair which was to become a real partnership after certain years of prowation and the latter saying it was an equal partnership from the start. “The conduct of the parties certainly lends color to the claim upon the part of the son. Letterheads were immedi- ately prepared carrying the name, J. E. Rich & Son, and in this name all goods were purchased and sold. Each drew from the profits of the concern what was needed to meet the expemse for which he was individually liable. There never was a time when a certain percentage of such profits was carried to the credit of either individual so that such’ proof as any such accounting might afford is entirely lacking. “On the plaintiff, of course, rests the burden of proving the allegations of his complaint by a preponderance of the evidence. There is no question hut what the partnership, if it was entered into, was to be equal as to sharing losses or gains, but that the weekiy stipand of each partner was subject to variation by mutual agreement at any time. The sale question is whether or mot there was ever a time when the parties intend that the partnership should there origi- nate. { “The facts brought out by the evidence seem to the court to dlsclose by a fair preponderance the making of such a partnership agreement between the fa- ther and son on December 23rd, 1914, terminable at will, to which both yield- ed their assent at the time and lived up to till November 1921, when it was dls- solved. This belng so the son {s entitled to the relief sought in his complaint and an interlocutory judgment may be ac- cordingly entered for such accounting.” In the cdse of Willilam Hartman against Oliver F. Downs of Brooklyn the court finds for the plaintiff to recover $400 damages. This case grew out of the defendant shooting the plaintiff in the. leg as he, the plaintiff, was approach- ing the defendant’'s house in the night time. The defendant had been roughly used by a man some months before the shooting and claimed to be in a highly nervous state. When he saw the plain- tiff on his premises he belleved him to be thé same man who had made an ns- sault upon him and when the plaintl did not halt af his command he fired two shots from a shot gun. A third decislon was that in the case of Louis Wolfe of Putnam vs. the Lane Tonstruction Co., of Meriden, in which the plaintiff sought to recover a balsnze due for trucking for the defendant while the defendant was engaged in laying a plece of state road near the village of Dayville. The defendant set up that the work was delayed on account of the plaintiff’s negligence in doing the work. The decision is for the plaintiff to re-iand as to its number.
