MISS LUCY GARDNER GUILTY.
Court of Errors AfHrrns Decision OF
the LaxYer Courts.

tMO
The Court of Errors and Appeals yester-
day FLED a memorandum at Trenton affirm
ing the Judgment of the Supreme Court and
sustaining the conviction of Lucy Gard ner
for larceny.
The vote was seven for affirmation and
five for reversal. Those voting for affirm
ing were Chancellor McGill. Judges Magic,
Reed, L~ippincott, Phelps, Kruger and
Clements, and for reversal Judges Albeit,
Garrison, Smith, Bogert and Brown.
Lawyer Samuel Kalisch represented the
prosecution and Senator W. DAILY repre-
sented the defendant.
The history of this case dates back to the
end of the year 1891, when Lucy Gardner, a
resident of East Orange, was tried in the
Court of Quarter Sessions on an indictment
for larceny before Judge Kirkpatrick. The
claim was that before the holidays she went
to Stern Bros. in New York and ordered
some silver match boxes and other trinkets
for holiday gifts, amounting to a little over
$40. These she had sent out to her by ex-
press. The goods were delivered to Lucy
Gardner at her mothers residence in East
Orange, N were marked COD. Lucy
took the parcel from the expressman and
went to her room with it. She returned
and said to the expressman that there was
nothing in the box except some old fringes.
This was reported Immediately to Stern
Bros. New York, who put the matter under
investigation and decided to have Lucy
Gardner arrested for larceny, which was
done. and she was bailed to await the action
of the Grand Jury.
After her arrest, Miss Gardner, in COM
pany with her mother, went to Stern Bros.
and bought q handkerchief, which she paid
for, and asked them to send the same to her
by express. The delivery of the handker-
chief was made by a boy who accompanied
the expressman. AS the boy entered the
house the door was locked. On Miss Gard
ner opening the box she Immediately ex-
claimed:-
"Here are some of the missing articles at
the same time picking up some hatpins, etc,
which seemed to nave fallen out of the box.
Thu boy had been first questioned as to
whether he had opened the box before be
entered the house. To which the boy re-
piled he had not, when in fact he had, in
presence of three witnesses, and in reality
knew there was nothing in the box except
the handkerchief These facts came out at
the trial, which took place in the Court of
Quarter Sessions at the April term in 1892,
and resulted in a conviction of larceny, and
she was sentenced to pay a fine Of 500 and
costs.
From this conviction a writ of error was
taken py her counsel to the Supreme Court,
where the Judgment was confirmed at the
November term in 1892-Judge Depue read
ing the opinion of the court. An appeal was
taken to the Court of Errors and Appeals,
which confirmed the Judgment of the SUI
preme Court, and sustained the conviction
in the Court of Quarter Sessions.
Lucy Gardner will now either have to pay
her fine or stand committed until the fine is
paid. She has been under bond during all
these proceedings.
