TESTIFIED THE WITNESSES.
Many People Go On the Stand in Gale
donia County Court in Behalf of
Frank Lynch, Who Is Being Sued
to Recover Cobleigh Gifts. 81

St. Johnsbury, june 2s.--Some of
the most important witnesses for the
defence have been on the stand during
the last two days in the Cobleigh gift
case in Caledonia county court. Zimri
Cobleigh of Waltham, Mass, an old
man So years of age, and the only sur
viving brother of Eber w. Cobleigh,
whose gifts to Frank G. Lynch are the
objects of this suit, testified about his
brothers affairs, substantially corrobo-
rating the defendants story that Eber
Cobleigh disliked his relatives, was Of
Tended at the town Of Lyndon and, in
his right mind, wiled and did give Mr..
Lynch $4,000 in bonds and $1,000 in
money
Harlan Cobleigh, the nephew, of West
Burke, who procured the appointment
of Luther B. Harris, one of the nom
inal plaintiffs of this cult, as special
administrator, was the next witness
called by the defence Several wit
nesses have already testified that Eber
Cobleigh hal said that Harlan re-
fused to take 500 in settlement of all
claims against the estate and that he
further stated he would have $4,000
or nothing Harlan Cobleigh affirmed
the testimony about the 500, but de-
MED the last Of it. about the $4,000
DR.. w Z Blake of Lyndonvile was
called and testified regarding his at
tendance upon Mr.. Cobleigh and how
handsomely he was rewarded with
gift OF $1,000 in bonds. The so-called
touched up" handwriting on the bonds
was pretty largely the plaintiffs point
of action in the cross-examination. DIR.
Blake testified that he helped fll out
the assignment.
The defense offered the receipts OF
the rest Of the heirs, except Harlan
Cobleigh, wherein it gended to show
that all had received 800 each in full
settlement against Eber Cohleigh's es-
tate The plaintiff objected that the
signatures were not genuine, as they
purported to be.
Mrs. Frank G. Lynch was the next
witness called and the chief object of
Eber Cobleigh's benefaction. She tes-
titled to having received from Mr.. Cob
leigh $1,000 Mr.. Cook. for the plain
tiff, gave her long examination,
trying to bring out certain strange cir
cumstances regarding the gift of the
bonds
Judge Smith of the Probate court was
the last witness called by the defence.
He testified to certain matters which
came before him. Although the de-
fence has not rested, nothing re-
mains to be done on this side but put
in evidence some papers The defence
has examined thirty witnesses in re-
buttal. The case cannot possibly go
to the jury before the very last of
the week. One day will be taken up
with the agreement by the counsel to
the jury.

Belle White, Popular Girl of the Village,
Related How the "Beartown.
Dance Fight Started on
March IL

Manchester, June 20 The features
in the Dupluis case yesterday were the
testimony of Belle White, the so-called
"belle of the dance; the calling to the
stand BY the state of two brothers of
the respondent, the demand made by
Mr.. Archibald Of the defence on the
states attorney for a letter which
he claimed was mailed by one of the
boys while they We're in Rowden, Can,
and the spectacular account of the af-
fair given by the last witness of the
day, George Mears, who was one of the
fddlers at the dance
Miss Whites testimony gave the first
light on the beginning of the trouble.
She said, in effect, that an argument
arose between Thomas Mears, owner of
the hall, and Jim Dupluis over brok-
en- stove, and in the course OF the argu-
ment Dupluis said: Show me the
man who said ] broke the stove and /
will clean the hall with him"
Amos Moffatt said to his father, the
victim Of the Fray "They say they
can clean the hall, come on and let's
help do it." she alleged They both
rushed at Jim and after the witness
and Mrs. Mesrs had demonstrated with
the elder Moffat about getting mixed
up in a fight, both women went down
stairs Further testimony revealed
little new evidence concerning the fight.
In calling the brothers of the re-
spondent to the stand the state evil
IDENTIFY tried to show that they left the
state soon after the trouble, fearing
the consequences On cross-examination
Mr.. Archibald brought forth the TACT
that they were warned on Sunday aft
ernoon that some of the sandgatherers
were laying for them and would use
them up and would not use their hands
for it either, upon receipt Of which in
formation they decided to depart. The
state promised to produce the letter to-
morrow.
When George Mears was called the
whole room braced up. Many had held
their seats all day in order to be sure
to hear George When Atty Gen
Sargent asked if there was any enter
tainment at the Mears house March
II George said:
Entertainment Yes, they got to
quarreling."
He later replied to Mr. Maloney of
the defense. who for the first time
took an active part in the work, when
asked if he was related to Thomas
Mears, Il s'pose I'm his own brother" /"
He also informed this attorney that
he, Mears. was not a drinking man.
Most of the witness answers were more
or less embellished, owing to which the
sheriff was kept busy rapping for or
der, and Judge Taylor, though indulg-
ing in many a smile, threatened to
clear the room

Jimmie Walsh was the man who
taught San Langford to box. He is
now the most feared boxer outside
Of Jack Johnson.
Sam is said to have been working
as janitor around gymnasium
when he first got the notion to be
fighter.
II was early In 1902 when Langford
was given his first chance in the ring,
when an amateur tournament was on
In Boston. and Sam was allowed to
enter II. He won the event from Jack
McVicker In the third round.
From this time on he made up his
mind to stay with the game, and dur
ing the last eight or nine year has
won many fights. He began with the
welterweights, but now has reached
the middleweight class.
Jack Johnson may meet I.angford
In the ring again on Labor Day mt
Maryland. This report has drifted
from the East. The promoters Of an
aviation carnival TO be held in Mary
land are figuring on putting up a
match of this sort between two good
men on the first Monday night of
September.
Johnson is said to have asked
100000 as his price to enter the ring
at Maryland. to meet either Bonn
barber Wells or Sam Langford.
There is another rumor afoat that
johnson has been going out finan-
ciaily lately. and II is almost neces-
sary for him to re-enter the ring

JACK JOHNSON MAY fight
LANGFORD ON LABOR DAY
HUGH MCINTOSH is TRYING TO ARRANGE A FIGHT Be.
TWEEN CHAMPION AND WELLS

From another source comes news
that Jack Johnson will be matched
with Bombardier Wells, the heavy
weight champion of England, the fight
to take place at London or some other
place In England.
II Johnson is to meet Langford In
| the ring at such an early date, Hugh
Mcintosh. the Australian promoter,
who brought together johnson and
Burns. when the former won the right
to meet Jeffries, and who is also back
OF the proposed fight between John
son and Wells, should have the say
In the plan now talked of, the Mary
land fight.
Since Ad wolgast won the cham
pionship bout from Moran of England
on the Fourth of July. It is not
planned to match Matt Wells, the
British title-holder, on the Coast on
Labor Day. II is doubtful If Matt
Wells could ever take Wolgast twenty
or more rounds of fighting. IL would
be good go If these two men are
matched.
Sam Langford, the other colored
boxer. is about the only man who can
give Jack Johnson a run for his
money at the present time.
The chances of Bombardier Wells
against the champion. Jack Johnson,
are not so good, as the latter is both
a fighter and boxer.
II looks as though all the Ameri-
can champions must either go to Eng
land or import English champions to
furnish classy opponents for the home
fighters.
