 dict Set Aside will be Heard by Judge Waller Today.

The entire day in the court of com mon pleas was taken up with the ar guments in the case of B. H. Hewitt vs Lafayette F. Main of North Ston- ington, the evidence in which case was heard last week. Although MT. Main stated he thought he could get his argument in in an hour, and At torney Hull wanted but a few min utes, the entire day was gone when the case was cleared up. The jury con- sidered the matter a little over an hour and returned with a verdict of S462.46 for the plaintiff, in a suit for about $500.
 There was much interest in the ses- sion and a number of lawyers attend ed to hear the layman make his ar gument. The opening argument was made by Attorney H. A Hull. who reviewed the facts in the case briefly. Mir. Main then addressed the jury in an interesting manner and held the attention of the jury throughout the two hours which he occupied in set- ting forth his claims. He observed well the rules and punctuated his ad- dress with gesticulations. He re- ferred to the way his cases had been conducted and to the agreements which he had made and the fact that he had not been given credit for cer- tain payments. Part of his argument he had written, while there were doc uments which he used to refresh his memory and prompt him in his ad- dress. He occupied the remainder Of the morning session.

MISSING QUAKER HILL BOY
 HAS BEEN FOUND.
Alfred Comstock Found in Barn Four
 Miles From Home.

Alfred Comstock, the 16 year old son of Mir. and Mrs. L. A. Comstock of Quaker Hill, who disappeared Sun day night. was found Tuesday morning On the old Stebbins farm, on the Col chester road, about four miles from his home. The boy was taken to his home, but was unable to give a coher- ent account of his disappearance He had apparently had nothing to eat since Sunday and is very weak. He says that he slept in a barn on the farm for two nights.
 l.. A. Comstock, the boys father, Is satisfied that the lad was drugged by somebody who was under the im- pression that he had money in his possession, which they hoped to steal. The lad and his brother have been in the habit of taking home the collec- tions from the Baptist church Sum day nights and turning the money over the next morning to Miss Nellie Starr. the treasurer, who has been i'll for a considerable time.
 The boys separated at the forks of the road and that was the last seen of Alfriod until Tuesday morning. It happened that he did not have the col lection money, it being carried by his brother
 Sheriffs Brown, Tubbs and Woods searched the country thoroughly on Monday without results and the larg- CT children of the Uncasville school, under the direction of MT. Comstock, secured the country as far west as the Colchester road in their efforts to find the boy.
 Mr. Comstock states that he believes that the boy was given drugged candy and that he wandered away while un- der the effect of the drug.
 The lad is weak on account of lack of food. but does not seem to have received any serious injury and will probably be all right again in a short time, as the result of the care that is being given him.
