All Three Indicted and Trial Will
Come This Term.
NOT INDICTED
Reported That No Bill was Found Against Him
on the Charge Of Choking Merritt B.
Morgan Last Spring.

While the grand jury at Manchestar
has not officially reported it can to-
said without question, that true bi 5
charging them with murder have bt d
found against Mrs Mary Rogers, Leon
Perham and Stella Bates, in causil .
the death Of Marcus Rogers Aug. l..
1902.
II is expected that one or more of the
respondents will be tried this term,
beginning next week or early the week
following. II is stated that the trial
of Leon Perham or Mrs Rogers will
take place first.
No bill was found against w. Il.
Bradford on the charge of assaulting
and choking Merritt B. Morgan, If
public report is true though the matter
is supposed not to be public until the
grand jury reports.
The grand jury will probably not
complete its labors until next week.
County court began business last
week Wednesday when the case of
Edward and Ellen H. Norris VS. Miss
Celia de Notbeck both of Dorset was
called and jury impaneled. The case
involves a question of the ownership
of certain wate rights in that town
and has created much interest. Miss
de Notbeck is a New York woman hav-
ing a fine summer establishment at
Dorset At herrequest the jury visited
the property in dispute.
When court adjourned Saturday
afternoon it was announced that the
case had been practically continued for
an addition to some OF the declarations
but was liable to be taken up at any
time. Batchelder & Bates appear for
the plaintiffs; Barber & Darling for
the defendant.
The grand jury was occupied the
most OF the week with the Morgan VS..
Bradford assault case, and the Rogers
murder case. One or two minor cases
were also considered. The foreman of
the grand jury is Geo. j. Bond of
Searsburg the clerk is Thomas Hoxie
Hall of Pownal. The grand jury was
here Monday, inspected the jail, and
went over the scene of the Rogers
murder, the different places connected
with the case being showed 70 them.
1t is doubtful if they conclude their
lsbors this week.
