Attorney James A. Williams. who was assigned as counsel for Dr. Percy A Scnior of Westerly in the malprac- tice case recently tried in tho superior court for Washington county. em- pha ticaIly denies that he has anything to do with the threats made by the doctor to bring suit in damages against the town of Westerly and others. MT. Williams sends a letter, enclosing Q copy of a letter sent to Dr. Senior, and asks for it's publication for the purpose of correcting any impression that the communications issued by the doctor may have made, that MT Will Hams Is so poor lawyer as to have advised Dr. Senior that he has right of action against the town of Wes- tcffy, or. anybody else. on account of his arrest and incarceration in July last on the charge upon which he was recently acquitted in Washington letter that MT. Williams sent pr. Senior dated at Providence October z, 1914:
 Dear Sir: I am surprised to learn that you are threatening to sue the town of Westerly for damages in the sum of $50,000 for your arrest and in- carceration on the charge upon which you were recently tried and acquitted at Kingston. 1 am even more sur- prissd that you should have taken the liberty to u5o my name in connection with the matter without first consult ing me. If you had consulted me would have told you that you have absolutely no case whatever against Police Sergeant West Chief of Police Brown. the town of Westerly, the state of Rhode Island, or anybody else.
 Furthermore. would have told you that you are lucky to be free again and would have advised you to re- turn to your home and by life of so- briety, honesty and diligence in your profession to establish again that good reputation which you yourself des- troyed. cannot sanction your pres -ent course, and would thank you not to use my name again in connection with any such nonsensical scheme.
 Yours, etc.
