HUMANE AGENT STANTON
COMMENDED FOR HIS WORK
State Agent D. w. ThraII Came Here
Monday to Look into the Case Where
Complaint Had Been Made.

State Agent d. w. Thrall of the Con-
necticut Humane society came hero on
Monday and in company with Humane
Agent George H. Stanton, they ins es-
tigated a case where it was claimed
a man was abusing his horses. Com
plant about this matter WAC made to
the local agent and after he looked it
up. 1t was his opinion that the com
plant was brought out of spite and
finding upon inquiry that there was
no foundation for the complaint he did
not take any action. The complain INT
then wrote to the state agent and as
the result, although he had been in
formed of the local agents finding. ne
came here, and they both looked up a
number of people who We're in a posi-
ton to know if any such cruelty took
place.
The result was the same as when
Mr.. Stanton made his investigation. it
being found that no one knew OF the
abuse of the horses and that the man
does not abuse his horses. Mr.. T.lrau
upheld Mr.. Stanton in his finding in
the matter and commended him for
his faithful work In the interests of the
society here He is ready to give his
attention to all cases of cruelty and
abuse. but the opinion in the case in
question is that it was brought up be-
cause of bad feelings

JUDGE REED GIVES DECISION
Defendant Wins in Suit of State Eavid Gimour adm
which Sought Legacy of $1OO-Eurns Case Again
Continued-Other Superior Court Matters.

On Monday. Judge Reed handed
down a decision in the case of state
VS.. D. S. Gilmore, adm. of the estate
of Timothy Kelley. In the memoran-
dunn of decision he says:
The claim for a legacy need not be
presented to the executor within the
for creditors to present their claims
Neither is the claim for legacy bar
red by seventeen years rule of the
statute of Limitation.
The demurrers to the second and
third defense are therefore sustained.
1t is alleged in paragraph four of
the complaint that said Timothy KEEL
ley did not pay the legacies in said
WHIP and in the last clause of para
graph eight that (which legacy (re-
ferring to the legacy of 500 to the
plaintiff) through the neglect of said
Timothy Kelley, she has not received"
The nom pav ment of this legacy is
the only breach of the bond relied up
on, and under the issues raised under
the first defense, 1 find these allega-
tons unproven and untrue. While
lind that no statute of limitations OPP
crates to bar the clause for legacy
absolutely, and no presumption of it's
payment arises from mere lapse of
time yet from the long lapse of time,
in connection with the other circum-
stances. as shown by the evidence, I
find that the plaintiff has failed to
prove the breach of the bond in the
particular OF the non-payment of this
legacy.
The entire conduct of the PLAINTIFF
for eighteen years has been utterly
inconsistent with her present claim.
She never made demand of her brother
the executor for the legacy, or re-
quested its payment; she had dealings
with him, and settlements from time
to time. and no reference was ever
made to it, and she has brought two
suits against his estate upon other
claims, upon either one of which
claim for this legacy might have been
included, without doing so.
That a court may find payment and
satisfaction from long lapse of time,
less than 20 years in connection with
such as these, is beyond
contention.

the benefit of this finding under the
issue raised by the pleadings-
1t was suggested IN argument by
the plaintiff that there had at least
been a technical breach of the bond,
and that the plaintiff is entitled to
nominal damages. But there can be no
recovery of nominal damages for any
breach by which the party for whose
benefit the suit is brought is not in
jured- Judgment may be entered for
the defendant
This suit was for a legacy of 800
which Miss Kelley claimed her brother
had never turned over to her from
her fathers estate.

The Norwich. Colchester and Hartford
Traction Company.


Traction Company.
There seems to be just now consid-
cradle activity on the part of those
who are directly interested in the
building of the Norwich and Colchester
electric road. The stock is selling
quite rapidly and the promoters of the
road are very confident that within
thirty days the full amount of 5000 900
of the stock will be taken. 1t is a
vote of the directors that work should
be commenced when this amount of
stock is subscribed for and not until
that time. Stock is being sold not only
here in the city, but all along the
route. in Hartford and elsewhere. The
more to Norwich and the merchants
here than many anticipate. The
amount of business it would of neces-
ity bring here would be very large, and
some anticipate that it would bring
much more business to Norwich than
even the Montville road. We would
hardly be willing to spare that now,
although many thought at one time it
was not needed and would not pay.
The people have learned something
about the value of electric lines to this
place during the last fifteen years. One
to be convinced of their value to our
lin square on any Saturday afternoon
Everyone should encourage the build
ing of any road leading into Norwich.
The effect of the probable building of
this road is already felt along the
route. At Bozrahville the parties there
are rebuilding the structure recently
destroyed there and hope soon to be
running again. The Yantic Paper
company. at the old rubber mill on the
road TO Colchester. is being refitted
and viii soon be turning out large
products of paper. Many industries
along this route Will ne undoubtedly
promoted by the building OF this road
There are several small water priv
ileges which will~be developed il this
road is built which are not at the
present time occupied because they
are so far from market and railroad
transportation. A number OF experts
who have given some attention to this
proposition think most favorably of it.
1t would seem great thing for much
of eastern Connecticut II work on this
road should be begun by priI 1st.-
