G. Moore was arrested early this morning
by Sheriff Daniel Healy of Manchester
on capias issued at Nashua. DR.. Moore

was able to appear for trial. DIR. Moore
was assisted down stairs and the sheriff
had stretcher and assistants to carry
him to the station, but the doctor walked
to the carriage with some assistance.

with the testimony of DR.. McQuesteD.

free from debt.
They were years too of great peaceful
