'CLAIM THAT VAS-
SALb0R0 BOY IS
0VERWORKED FAILS
Mrs. Aver, State Agent for Pre-
vention of Cruelty to Chill
dren, Makes Application to
Municipal Court to Secure
New Home for Hollis Brown,
but after a Hearing the Court
Dismisses the Proceeding

A hearing was held Wednesday
morning by Judge Lancaster of the
municipal court on the application of
Mary NJ. Aver of Vassalboro, a State
agent for the prevention Of cruelty to
children. to make provision for the
care, custody, education and support
Of one Hollis Brown, aged 13 years.
son Of Ida Brown Of North Vassal-
boro. which boy has for the past three
years been living with Elwin Abbott.
Former Judge Benedict F. Maher rep
resented Mr.. Abbott and Mrs. Brown
at the hearing.
Mrs. Aver claimed that the boy had
been overworked; that he did mans
work in the bayfield,, and did hard
work all the time; that Mr.. Abbott
swore at the boy, and that on last
Tuesday the boy was using a scyths
all the forenoon; that part Of that
day he rode on moving machine and
drove a pair Of horses; that he also
rode a horse rake and helped stow
away the hay in the barn. The largest
complaint on Mrs. Ayers part was
that the boy ran an automobile when
Abbott was too much intoxicated The
principal complaint against Abbott
was that he got intoxicated
Judge Mahers defence was that Alb
bott while he got intoxicated, became
so through the influence Of the man
for whom he was working. Mr.. Abbott
said that he was good to the boy and
that the boy did not have to work
more than he wanted to. Mrs. Brown,
the mother of the boy, also said that
Mr. Abbott was good to him and she
thought that the boy would be as we'll
off with Abbott as with her. And she
further said that she was willing for
the boy to stay where he was
AT the conclusion of the hearing the
court dismissed the proceeding, ac
cording to Mrs. Aver the privilege Of
making another application if she
thought necessary
