Norwich bulletin., 1910-06-14

That John Fielding probably met death as the result of a blow on the right temple was the opinion of Dr. w. w. Adams of Moosup and Dr. Louis I Mason of Willimantic, after they had coTnpfetat the autopsy in the Moosup murder case Monday. The autopsy was performed at the instance of Coroner Arthur G. Bill of Daniel son, who also commenced the inquest Monday and spent the greater part Of the day investigating the case but was unable to examine all the wit neSses whom he desired to hear He will resume the inquest at 10 o'clock this morning at the office of Attorney Bradford W. Danielson at Moosup. Meanwhile, Joseph McGarry who eluded arrest Sunday night, has given himself up and is held with George Berger without bonds, pending the out responsibility in the affair. Both gave testimony before the coroner Mon day.
 Fielding's body remains at Moosup, but it is expected that it will be claimed today by his wife. who was located Monday by some of her rela- tives at 31 Social street. New Bed fordl
 There was only a slight abrasion visible over the right temple to in ddcate the point at which Fielding had been struck, when the surgeons com menced the autopsy, but directly un- derneath a clot of blood was found and also a fracture of both the inner and outer tables of the skull, which is very thin at that point. A hard blow from g. mans fist could readily cause such fracture. No other marks of violence were found on the dead man.
 While a few witnesses in addition were listened to at the inquest Mon day. Samuel Stanfeld and Whitaker Parkinson, FieIdings companions at he Ho trin Efa -ad Berger and McGarry, held on suspi- cion of having committed the assault. were the ones about whose stories the deepest interest centered.
 As yet no person has been found outside of the five engaged who claims to have been an actual witness of the fatal affair
 Told Similar Stories.
 Both Stanfield and Parkinson re- lated similar stores. They told of be- Moosup, and of starting for their homes The two men who assaulted them. they claim, were standing on the platform at the freight station inson told the coroner that he had stopped there a minute anth that after he had been warned by the fellows on the platform to move on. and he had tackled. He claims to have been knocked down by blow. that he all so saw Fielding and Stanfield struck down Then he got out of the fight and left for home. Stanheid's story was corroborated by Parkinson.
 Recognized McGarry and Berger.
 They claim to have recognized Mo and that Berger felled Fielding while McGarry was fighting Stanf1eld. Al though Berger and McGarry were both told by Coroner Bill that they need not give any testimony or make any statements unless they desired to thing that they might say at the in quest could be later used against them in the superior court, they both decided to tell of their doings on Sun day night Their stories were very similar. They admit having spent Sunday afternoon together at Doffett's farm, near Moosup pond, returning to Moosup a few minutes after o'clock. They then went to supper, they say, and later came down street near Nor rissey's store From there they went over to the passenger station and stood on the platform until the electric car came in at ten o'clock. They say that they did not see Fielding, Stanfield and Parkinson alight from the car and that after the passengers got off they went back near Morris store.
 Hold on Suspicion.
 Whether they will desire to make uncertain At present they are merely held on suspicion. They will remain in custody at least until after the in quest, as the evidence against them is considered strong.
