ing by his friend and classmate, Nor
ton Starr Greasy, ofHartford, Conn, at
Brattleboro.
The tragedy occurred in the home OF
Cressy's grandmother, Mrs. r. Starr,
where the two young men were guests.

taken for a burglar by his friend and
shot dead. According to the statement
of Cressy's attorney, the young men
passed particularly pleasant evening
and retired.
Cressy woke TO find some one Crap

ed a shot upwards. The struggle
continued, Greasy firing three or tour
shots.

If the union were directed by men OF

persuaded to do if the association
