TO REPRESENT CAMPBELL.
''Ho1nes Conrad. OF Winchester. will
represent Judge Clarence j. Campbell. of
Amherst, when the charges against him
are taken up by the committee for courts
OF Justice, said a close friend of Judge
Campbell yesterday.
The information is correct, and the Sc
cret as to who would represent Judge
Campbell, which has - been carefully
guarded is out Judge Campbell has Sc
cured one of the most skilled lawyers in
the. State to represent him.
The prosecution will be represented by
Aubrey E. Strobe and Loving and Brown.
Judge Campbell has sent in a list OF
eighty-two witnesses. whom he desires
summoned, but the decision of the COM
mittee to restrict to those who are ac-t
quainted with the facts directly involved
will, doubtless, upset the plans OF the
defence and the prosecution.

day. . said Chairman Soutlall, OF the
committee charged with Investigating the
Campbell matter This is in addition to
