JUDGE DECLINED TO
TRY CASE AT 3 A. M.
Routed Out of Bed Twice-Two Young
Men Arrested at Slab Hollow Dance
Trial Set for Monday.

Constable Charles Laughton of Dunn
mcrston arrested late last evening two
young men named Fillion and Mulvey,
who, the constable asserts, committed
a breach Of the peace at dance in
Slab Hollow, Dummerston. He
brought them TO Brattleboro, reaching
here shortly before , o'clock this
morning.
He eounseled with Police Chief
George Wilson, who advised locking
them up until a reasonable hour in
the morning, but the young men pro
tested that they did not want 70 be
locked up and the constable was ready
to have the trial then.
The consequence was that Municipal
Judge Frank t. Barber was routed
out of his warm bed at O'Clock in
the morning and urged to hold court,
bat he firmly refused. II is customary
ia Brattleboro to hold court at most
any old time that is convenient,
the Judge in this instance insisted thai
it was not convenient.
Attorney Harold T. Whitney was ap-
pealed to, and once more the Judge
answered the insistent ringing of his
telephone and agreed that if Mr. Whit
ney would become responsible for their
presence in court whenever a time for
a hearing should be agreed upon the
formality Of locking up the alleged
offenders might be dispensed with
And il was so.
