DRUNK FIGHT
 ENDS IN MURDER
FRED LONG THE vICTIM-ASSAIl-
 ANTS IN JAIL

Ray Reraback and Frank Howe Await
 Trial for Murder in First Deoree-
 Victim Kicked and Pounded to
 Death-AlI Had Been Drinking
 Cider.
 Raymond Roraback and Frank Howe are in Litchfield jail awaiting trial on Q charge of murder in the first degree for killing Frederick Long aged 51, at South Canaan. last Wednesday night in a fight that developed out of a cider drunk
 It appears from the evidence that Long, who worked for Cullen K Hol- comb, was on his way home, wednes- day night. when he was overtaken by Roraback and Howe. who had two jugs of cider which they had procured at a South Canaan cider mill. They all drank cider from the jugs. in the road, near Morse's hill, and Long carried ono of the jugs, from that point. and walked just ahead of the other two. After pro- ceeding short distance, Roraback caught up with him, and engaged htm in scuffie. A short distance farther they had another scuffie. and still far ther on they fought again, and Long picked up stone. All three were en- gagged in this fight, which was despe- rate one and occurred in front of Pendle- tons house and was witnessed by Olin Pendleton. This was at about 1o:S0 o'clock.
 Roraback and Howe then went to Howe's house, near by, and Long, after trying to get into Pendleton's proceeded also to Howe's. He was battered and bloody, and an old lady at Pendleton's washed him up and started him for home. After he had departed, Rora- back. having taken more cider. started in pursuit of Long and threatened to kill him. The Howe family heard loud cries, and young Howe started in that direction and was heard to say. Let up Ray don't pound him any more, or you'll kill him." Then they left hinn, in the road.
 Long managed to crawl to the barn of the Hezekiah Goodwin place and lay down on the hay. Early the next morning he was found there by Mrs. Mary Barnes, who occupies the plsce' and who went out to feed her chickens He asked for Mir. Holcomb and said he thought he ought to have a doctor. Mir. Holcomb, on being notified. af once sent for Dr. Lee, of Canaan. who went down and took charge of the case, which he told Holcomb was serious one.
 Constable I. P. Hornbeck was called up, who advised that the selectman be at once notified. and Dr. Slxiff was called into the case by Selectman House.
 Long died at II o'clock, Thursday night Tn the meantime Constable Hornbeck had rounded up and arrested both Roraback and Howe, and placed them in the lookup.
 Coroner Herman was notified, and came out for an inquest An autopsy was held, in the presence of J. Clinton Roraback, representing the state, and Coroner Herman decided that death had resulted from injures suffered by being kicked and beaten, which had perforated the intestines.
 Roraback and Howe were arrainged before Justice Miles Blodgett, J. Clinton Roraback appearing for the state, and the prisoners were held without ball. for trial in the superior court on the charge of murder in the first degree They were taken to jail by Constlhle Hornbeck.

Yesterday evening about 4:40 the
fire department responded to what
Chief Gattis termed Thanksgiving
Call, the blaze having originated in
the popcorn and peanut vending wagon
at the corner of Third and Chickasha.

quantity of gasoline and while. momen-
