A RocKLAND FIRM ASSIGNS.
Depression in the Lime Market Causes
Business Troubles.

Depression in the Lime Market Causes
Business Troubles.
Especial to the PRESS.)
Rockland, September A sensation was
caused in local business circles today by the
announcement that the we'll known lime
firm of H. o. Gurdy & Co., had assigned
with liabilities to the amount of $32, 600.
Mr.. Gurdy was seen by the PRESS CORES
pondent at his store on Camden street to-
night and the report verified. MIR. Gurdy
states that the failure was due largely to
these causes, the inability to realize on the
assets, the business depression of the past
two years and insufficient capital. The firm
began business August l, 1881. Within three
years they have lost considerable vessel
property, and the lime market in this time
has been far from satisfactory for local
merchants. The assets, including personal
property, are fully sufficient to meet the
liabilities, but ii is not known yet Just what
settlement will BIZ made or whether the firm
will close its doors. The creditors are near
ly all hockland, parties. The assignee is
Arthur L. LittlefieId.

PRAWDA SENTENCED.
To imprisonment For Life in State
Prison.

Prawda was brought into court yesterday
morning for sentence for shooting Mrs.
Walbury Meyers at Yarmouth. When brought
into court by Deputy Sheriffs Chute and
Skillin, he had to be supported, his legs
knocked together. and he seemed nerveless.
DR.. Small the Jail physician, sat beside him.
Prawda wept andsclasped his hands in an
attitude of prayer.
County Attorney True moved that..Prawda
be sentenced. and Mr.. Allan, Prawda's
ounseI, consented. Judge Bonney asked
Prawda if he had anything to say in his be-
half, and Prawda mumbled some words
which his counsel interpreted as wish to
make private statement to the Court. This
Judge Bonpey could not permit.
Prawda then said in broken tones: MAY
it please your Honor, l am an innocent
man. They had an idea who the man was
but haven't proved it," ! -
Judge Bonney then handed the papers to
Deputy Charles Libby, who told Prawda to
stand, and Mr.. Libby then read this
sentence, which is imprisonment for life at
had labor in the State prison at Thomaston.
Prawda was then removed from the court.
DIR. Small is satisfied that Prawdad ds sham-.
ming in order to get sympathy. He says he
isn't insane
