Barre Called On to Pay Jail
Costs Of Man Involved
in Private Suit
1O9 DAYS BOARD
BILL PRESENTED
This Isn't the First Time
Barre Has Been Mulct-
ed in This Way

Sheriff Tracy's jail Is going to get an
other slice Of charity department change
as result of private damage suit in
lstituted several months ago and close
Jail execution which landed the defendant
in the sheriff's keeping. The. detention
lof one Joe Brogginin for a period Of 100
ldays was the outcome of a private quar-
lrel in which the city had no more inter
est than as though it had occurred in
France, but the charity department, new
lertheless, is held to pay costs. While the
aldermanic charity committee is going
through the formality OF O. king the
| bill, some of the ins and outs of a law
that has worked injustices on municipali-
ties before will be scrutnized and here
after an effort will be made to minimize
unavoidable costs of this sort as much as
possible.
Very few matters of major import
were ready for attention at the session,
the members making short work Of the
routine business. DIR. NJ. d. Lamb sent
in a bill for Sl.50, which he claimed as
medical fee, having been summoned to
police headquarters to attend John C.l
Brennan on the night of Oct 10. Inquiry
developed the information that the police
had called DIR. p. S. Duffy, the city ply /
sician, who in turn sent for DIR. Lamb. /
The council held that DIR. Duffy should I
pay the bill and the matter was referred /
to the charity committee.
A resolution appropriating 5000 for hy. |
drant rentals and $3.50 for the police de-
partment was given its second reading
and adopted. Complaints centering about
the condition OF a natural water course
under the Central Vermont railroad near
the North Barre Granite Co.'S plant were
received and turned over TO the street
committee to investigate.

the building inspector, permits were
