sLAYER's BEST WITNESS DIES
Was Brother on Whom Convicted Man
Placed Retrial Hopes.

George Nsylor. Of Townsend, who
was expected 10 give the most impor-
tant new evidence in the retrial next
week of his brother Charles B. Nay
lor. the aged farmer recently convict
ed of murder in the second degree,
died suddenly on Saturday at the
County Hospital at Farnhurst. Coun-
sci for Naylor said they did not think
il would have any bearing upon the
case. Charles B. Naylor recently
was convicted in the oyer and Ter
miner Court of murder in the second
degree, which carries a penalty of
life Imprisonment, for shooting Ear
vii Francis, a Townsend boy, whom
Naylor found on or near his land.
George Naylor was TO have been a
witness at the trial. but was too i'll
in the hospital TO appear in Court.

his brother did not know the carrying
power of the rifle with which he shot
Francis. This affidavit was made a

FIERCE FIRE WIPES OUT f,
c, GOOTEE'S LUMBER YARD
AND PLACES NEARBY BUILD
INGS IN GREAT DANGER
Smyrna Creamery and Ice Plant Only
Kept From Burning BY Hard Work
on Part of Firemen and Others

Residents of Smyrna were consid
erably alarmed Thursday afternoon.
when at about 2 Is O'Clock. fire broke
out in the lumber yard of Edmund c.
GOotee in the northern part Of the
town, which totally destroyed all the
buildings, sheds and other conven-
fences for storing lumber before il
was gotten under control. The cream
cry and ice plant, adjoining the lum-
Der yard, were in danger but was
saved by the work Of the fremen.
A high wind carried burning embers
over these buildins which made their
situation more dangerous. The fire
was discovered by Robert Sullivan. a
cOlOred man. who was passing, and
who saw flames issuing from a shed in
the southeast corner of the yard. He
promptly gave the alarm. Messrs
Smith and Lyman. proprietors of the
Smyrna creamery, who were working
at the plant. hastened TO the scene
but before they could reach il the
whole shed was enveloped in flames,
and in a short time the whole yard
was a bright blaze. The Hose Com
pany responded quickly to the alarm
and did valiant service, although
handicapped somewhat by a shortage
of hose. but by the time they arrived
there was no hope of saving any
thing but the adjoining buildings.
Fortunately the wind was from the
southeast. which carried the flames
away from the thickly settled portion
of Mt. Vernon street. and caused the
danger zone to lie in the direction of
the creamery. The roof Of the lat
ter caught fire several times. but
largely through the efforts of the
bucket brigade who kept throwing
water on the roof and sides of the
building it was kept from burning.
The roof Of the residence of c. H.
Jones on the opposite side of North
street also caught fire but was soor
put out. Mr.. GoOtee has no idea OF
how the fire started, as both he and
Mr.. Wright, an employee. had beer
away for a least half an hour. To.
ward the close Of the fire there was
an explosion of some dynamite caps
which caused some CONSERVATION
among the spectators. Mr.. GoOteC
has made no plans yet as to whether
he will start in business again. He
places his loss at So, 600. with an in.
surance Of "a. 500. His two horse:
where saved. but the carriages,
wagons and harness were burned.
The buildings. upon which there wa,
an insurance Of 81, 200 were owned
by Mr.. E. NJ. Rust. of Millington,
Md. Much sympathy is expressed
for Mr.. Gootee in meeting with 4
misfortune like this.

SEEKS TO RECOVER si457
Middletown Bank Brings Suit Against
Farmer to Secure Alleged Short
age-Court Admits the Books

Frequent tilts between the oppos-
ing counsel enlivened the suit before
the Superior Court Of the Peoples
National Bank, of Middletown. yes
terday, which is trying to recover
from George B. w. Rhoades, a far
mer, living near Middletown, S1457,
the amount of an alleged overdraft,
with interest from 1911. After the
court had Admitted in evidence the
journals of the bank. William G.
Lockwood the receiving and paying
teller in the bank, said he told Rhoades
of his alleged shortage on September
%. 1911, when it amounted to more
than $1,000. That day he said he
cashed a check for Rhoades for S177. =
"a. On cross examination he admit
ted that he kept the books at the
bank. but declared he did not know
of the shortage until George d. Kel-
ley. the cashier told him. George
ID. Kelley, former cashier at the bank,
followed Lockwood on the stand and
testified that there was no deposit
made by Rhoades that was not cred
ted on the books. Mr.. Handy submitted
a report of the condition o. the bank
issued in December, 1911, which
was signed by Mr.. Townsend as a
director. Mr.. Handy asked him if
he could explain how il could be that
the overdraft Of nearly $500 re-
mained unpaid on December II.
1911, when the report which Mr..
Townsend signed showed overdrafts
secured and unsecured amounting TO
only S517. 10. Mr.. Townsend re-
piled that at that time he had not ex-
amined the books and that the figures
in the report were not correct. The
counsel for the bank announced they
would close their side of the case.
Mr.. Handy. for Rhoades, in his open
ing address to the jury. said he
would show that in August. 1910,
Rhoades took his book to the bank
for settlement and that he never re-
ceived it again although he frequent
ly called TO ask for IT, His over
draft, the attorney said started in
September, 1910. at S4O0, according
to the books. and was never less than
S70O. Mr.. Handy said that Kelley
and Lockwood according to the story
Of the defendant, after telling
Rhoades his alleged overdraft was
nearly $500 tried to get Rhoades anc
his wife to sign a note for the amount
saying that they would carry it foi
him, but that he refused to do this.

LEVY COURT VISITS MILFORD
Make an inspection of Lands of Frank
Greco in Milford Neck Where Drain
age Canals Have Been Cut.


Last week the entire Levy Court.
of Kent County come to Milford.
where they entered automobiles. and
were taken to the lands of Frank
Greco. in Milford Neck, where ex-
tensive drainage canals have been,
and are now in process Of cutting.
and which are draining hundreds of
acres of land. Part of this land was
once the Governor Polk Manor"
farm, and the Levy Court Court saw
wheat and clover growing on more
than one hundred acres of land. which
for many years has each spring been
covered with water from one inch to
foot deep. When the back water
which now necessary to be held so as
to float his dredge is no longer need
ed. after the completion Of the canal
project, is drained away, many marsh
farms adjoining Mr.. Greco will be
benefited by the drawing away of
water from those lands. Mr.. Greco
is an Italian, and has a colony of his
people working for him. He has been
a contractor for many years, and has
graded and constructed railroads in
Canada and other places. He now
makes his home in Delaware, where
he owns many acres Of land. The
Levy Court will have plans drawn for
two bridges over his drainage canal
for public roads to pass over, and Mr..
Greco will build them at his own ex-
pense. The Levy Court was sur
prised TO see the drainage works and
system in progress at Mr.. Greco's.
