 Corroborative evidence was given by Mrs. Lute who was in the machine with her husband when he had the argument. She declared that the off, cer's coat was buttoned and that his badge could not be seen.
 Attorney McDonough made a plea for the acquittal of his client. He claimed that it was preposterous to charge a man with breach of the peace for the statement that Lutes made to the policeman. He intimated that it was a count used with too much frequency by the Plainville prosecutor and it was absurd to try 10 give a respectable citizen a court record on so trivial an affair.", His failure to exhibit. a license was simply the natural result of a meeting Mof such 8 character. He had no knowk edge that the man was an officer and saw no reason for showing the license. He had exhibited it quickly in court and there was no reason why, he shouldn't show it at any time to the proper authorities.
 Justice Condell said he would ac- cept the word of. the witnesses that the accused didn't know Marine was an officer and for that reason would dismiss the breach of the peace charge. He considered him guilty, however, of the other charge and said Lutes could thank the prosecutor for not putting two additional counts against him.
