THE MUNICIPAL COURT.
William Lamont Gets Out of the Clutches
of Law-other Gases Tried.

In the Municipal court Saturday morn
ing the chief case was the story which
hung around the arrest of William La
mont. This man, who appeared with
H. Looney as his counsel was charged
with the larceny of ten dollars from Peter
al. Landry.
He was at once confronted with Lam
dry, the complainant. a sailor, who had
just come ashore when, as he alleges, he
lost his money. He went into place on
India street, which is bar room. While
there In social conversation with those
there he missed his money and accused
Lamont, who was there, of taking it.
george McDonough who was also in the
place testified to seeing the complainant
IN the saloon, and to hearing him com
plain OF losing the money. Lamont tnen
said that anyone could search him. NO
one did and then Lamont searched COM
piatnant and found the money IN an IN,
side pocket. Then Lamont said he WOULD
act as his banker. and after ordering
drinks out of the money. Lamont pre-
tended to put the money into complain
ants pocket. Then Lamont and COM
plainant left for the Boston boat. Pres
emily Lamont returned and said the old
man had shook him. Later the complain
ant returned and said his money was
gone and complaining that he had found
q confederate bill in his pocket.
william Lamont himself took the stand
He testified that they were all more or
less drunk, and was unable to clearly ex-
plain all that happened. He didn't re.
member some things that the other wit
,esses related and which would have
s""ned to be easy to remember. But the
9th witnesses were about as haZy; and
a. yer carefully questioning them all
Judge Robinson ordered Lamont dis
charged; advising him to keep out of
s''-h places in future.
Thomas Long. charged with intoxioa-
llon was found in his own house by Off
GER Hanson. He was fined So and costs
and 30 days in jail on previous case.
William Robinson, a colored man,
Oh srged with intoxication, said his. home
~as in ST. John, N. B. He was found
on Commercial street by Officer Frank.
He was sentenced to IS and costs but the
sentence was suspended.

NANCY EDWARDS WILL.

In the Probate court ON Saturday there
was a hearing over the much contested
will of Nancy Edwards, late of Windham.
AS Mrs. Edwards was about to die in
March, 1897, she made will leaving var
.ious requests, among them $1,000 in trust
for Marcia Libby. Leroy B. Mason was
n lmed as trustee, and the will was drawn
b. him. The residue of the estate, after
10 requests were paid, was to go to her
husband, Isaac Edwards This will was
disallowed in the Probate court, Mcs. Ed
wards having manifestly been too near
reath to make will at that time. : An
q peal was taken to the Supreme court;
b 1t the appeal was dismissed.
This will being out of the way,a second
will was produced in the Probate court
Saturday. This will had been made No
vember 5, 1895. By its provisions nearly
the whole of the estate was given to her
husband, Isaac Edwards. This will
Judge Peabody admitted to probate.
But there was contest over the executor,
Leroy B. Mason, who is the great will
maker of Windham, and was named as
executor.
Now Mr.. Edwards. who did not like
the 1897 will which Mr.. Mason drew, ap-
peareH in court Saturday, and forcibly
and in picturesque manner, stated his
obje ctions to Mr.. Mason as executor
Hon. NJ. P. Frank appeared for Mr..
Edwards and City Solicitor Carroll W.
Morrill, for MIR. Mason.
Judge Peabody reserved his decision.
