tate claim the account is much too large
and that he and Marshall Montgomery,
the administrator, are not giving them
their lawful share Of the estate.

tor tell her brother Frank. that he was
making his account larger than it really
was and had better keep his books out
Of sight. Attorney Gordon, who APP
pears for the heirs asked Mr.. Walbridge
il he had not charged twice for some
of the items in the account, but the
latter asserted that he had gone over
the books carefully with Mr.. Montgom
cry and that the accounts as they now
stand are all right.
Now Mr. Montgomery wants $500 in
addition to his regular compensation of
So day, for the extraordinary services
rendered, but Mr.. Gordon, in his closing
asked the court not to grant
this additional compensation. Attorney

bridge. said the obiecting heirs had been
cross, pugnacious and ugly" since the
Of an administrator and
had hindered him in the settlement Of
the estate.

bridge settled. the latter paid the estate
$500. which the other heirs claimed
should have been more. Up to now, each
OF the six heirs have received $500

tory to the objecting heirs; otherwise,

Dominica Sehittiui, yesterday, the skull
and parts Of the neck of the dead man.
There were eight cuts on the head and
neck three Of which could have been
made from behind and any one of which
must have caused death in few min
utes, A razor was shown him, on which
We're blood stains, but he could not pos
ltiyely identify them as human blood.
The edge Of the razor was not nicked
as it would seem the weapon must have
been, which caused Schittini's death.
Antoinette Vitala identified two
trunks, one of which was her own and
the other laccobucc's.
Marion G. Stabelle, a New York bank
er identified some envelopes found on
Iaccobucc as those used by his bank
and further identified bank book and
a signature as laccobueei's The book
showed deposit of 800 on the night
of August 20.
Miss Vitale was recalled and said
she at first refused to leave White River
Junction, but when Iaecobucci told her
he had some money she consented. She
was questioned as to how they lived and
said Iaccobucci did not work in New
York but paid the bills out of the mon
ey in the bank. She identified photo
graph of him which she first saw in
New York. 1t showed him clean shaw
en- but in Vermont he had worn nous
tache, 7Ie took the name Giovanni
Rensi in New York and told her it was
his real name.
She said the only word they left as
to their whereabouts when they left
White River junction was note which
laccobucci prepared and left for the
owners Of the house
In cross examination she said she was
25 years of age and had been in this
country six years. She was put through
a gruelling cross examination as to her
ways and mode Of life. She said Ihcco-
bucci never told her Schittini was dead.
1t was brought out that the two men
who visited the house and frightened
Iaccobucci into leaving her and going to
Philadelphia were Deputy Sheriff Pas
cal Ricci of Rutland county. the official
70 rthe state, and detective
from a Boston agency.
The Italian owner of the farm in
n. ", on which Iaccobucci
worked at the time he disappeared, was
placed on the stand and identified the
prisoner as Pompelia Iaccobucci.
Clement Sehittini, brother Of the muir
dered man saw his brother August %
l.. "A
He did not at first recognize him be-
cause Of the absence of moustache.
He saw Iaccobucci about midnight on
the night Of the murder, which was aft
ar the time the murder was committed.
Witness said Iaccobucei did not want
to recognize him and he hit him with
an apple to attract his atteion without
avail Witness saw his brother count
over $500 the night before the murder.
He always carried money with him.
