II Is contended Prisoner Was Afflicted
With a Mental Impairment, Causing
Him to Have a Dual Personality,
Which Resulted In Murder.
Someryille. \. j., May 16-Peculiar
interest attaches TO the trial Of George
II. Wood. aralgned charged with the
murder OF George Williams on Febru-
airy >. by reason OF the unique char
acter Of the defense which will be
made.
Counsel for Wood will endeayor TO
show that he was mentally irrespOnsi-
bic when he shot Williams, while not
being insane in the ordinary sense.
Their contention will be that Wood
was afflicted with a form of mental i'm
pairment, causing him to have a dual
personality, which resulted at times in
the commission Of abnormal actions In
innocence OF any wrongful intent, and
that it was while in such a condition
that he killed Williams, retaining no
recollection Of what he had done when
his other personality was dominant
The trial was begun in the Somerset
county criminal court before Justice
Garretson. the jury being selected
within % minutes after the case was
called Prosecutor Rogers in his open
ing address denied that Wood was
mentally afflicted, and said that 1t
would be shown that the motive of the
crime was robbery.
Several witnesses testified to the
finding Of the body Of Williams in his
sleigh and to having seen Wood in tho
vicinity that day
Charles Thorn, a clerk employed by
Williams, told Of Wood having hired
his employer to drive him from Wat
chung to the home Of his grandmother,
Mrs pOllack, near which Williams
body was found
Williams. a stOrekeeper in the vii
lage Of Watching. n. j.. was found
shot to death in his sleigh short dis
lance from his home early last Feb
ruary He had started from the village
to drive a strange man to a farm house
some distance away and suspicion at
once rested upon the stranger. Wood
was arrested and identified as the man
who had accompanied Williams, and
was charged with the murder. AT the
time Of his arrest he claimed that for
three days his mind had been a blank
and that he remembered nothing Of
that Deriod.
