James .Friery Got Jitney Driver to Cover About 1eo Miles. Looking Up Alleged Special Cases.

 officers in every Mindham county town (almost) for years past, releas- ed from jail Saturday morning, head ed back to Danielson. He was chased out of this town Saturday evening by Officer John Mcfarland and ambled over into the Dayville section.
 At Il o'clock Saturday night Ar thur J. Tessier who does a jitney bus mess between Dayville and Williams vile was carrying a load of passeng- CTS into Williamsville when he met Friery on the highway. Jim Tagged promptly announced to Tessier that he was a state police officer, ordered into this section to look for Pole for whose capture there was reward of $500. Friery said he believed the feI- low was in Williamsville and asked Tessier to drive him about the Vill- age. so that he might have chance to look for him. This Tessier did. On the witness stand Monday after noon Tessier told of his subsequent dealing with the bogus state police man. He said that Friery represent ed to him he had several special eases upon which he was to work in this section; that they included violations of the liquor and motor vehicle laws. Tessier said that F'riery told him that he had handcuffs, billie" and a false moustache-everything. in fact, that state police officer has and doesn't have-inclHding jag.
 What Tessier said was corrobrated by his brother Theodore who was im- pressed into service as ''speciaP' by Friery
 Friery's ''business took the Tessier brothers on a regular wild goose chase. The trip lasted until nearly 10 o'clock Sunday night and in the meantime Officer Friery had been driven to Put nam, Webster, Thompson. Pomfret and many intervening places, including a visit or two to the home of Thomas O. Elliott in Elliott, where Friery said he had to get some justices paper and back there, for a meeting with Cap tain Hurley. The machine must have covered more than 100 miles before the trip finally concluded.
 Although Friery represented that the state would pay the &25 charge for the trip, he contributed $1.76, which was in addition to the amount he spent in buying booze on the round.
 TesSier didn't like tha looks of the situation at all, so Monday he sent Deputy SheRAa Charles E. Aver on Frierey's trail. The sheriff located Jim in Fonfret and brought him to Dan- ielson. Jim acted as his own counsel in the town court, where he was charged with defrAuding Tess1er of the value of his services. Judge Wood ward sentenced him to six months ir Uf. prcseeutien

SAYS KIDNAPERS
LET OFF TOO EASY

Circuit Judge Ashford has two sub
jects in mind which he believes should
be considered by the next legislature,
They are these:
First, that automobiles, teams,
drays, trucks and other instrumental
lily of injury or damage should be
held primarily responsible for the pay
ment of any damage or injury they
might inflict
Second, that, for the offense of kid
mapping, a maximum penalty OF 10
years in prison, in place of the pre-
sent maximum of two years, should
be provided.
Speaking Of injury by vehicles,
Judge Ashford is of the opinion that,
should his suggestion be carried out,
owners of autos and other vehicles
might, perhaps, be more careful to
whom they entrust their valuable ma
chimes. At present he says, the loss
falls on the victim.
As regards kidnapping, Judge Ash
ford asserts that it is almost as Sc
rious a crime as homicide.
