Mr. Stoddard of Woodbridge criticised the committee for not recognizing the fact, that, the mans crime, for which he served a term in the state prison, was more than a trivial one, and that instead of giving the man the right to vote tho committee ought to have sug- gested that he be sent elsewhere. Mir. Foord of Stamford said he was re- sponsible for the petition. The man asked for his rights. He was living d good life, he had earned the respect of the community and had earned the respect of Mr. Foord, who hoped the petition would go back to the com- mittee for a rehearing. MT.
