The Arthur Cote Case

The adjutant generals office was re-
Gently requested to make investiga-
ton into the also recent death of Ar
thur Cote of Biddeford at the Soldiers
Home, where he was a member, the
request coming from Biddeford and
the same being accompanied by the
statement that evidence existed on the
remains that Cote had suffered physi-
cal violence and that suspicion was
entertained that his death might not
have been from natural causes.
Attorney General Pattangall assign
ed State Detective Arthur j. Landry
of Rumford to the investigation and
after the latters report it was decid-
ed that the charges had no foundation
and no further action would be taken.
Detective Landry ascertained from
Cote's company commander, Capt.
Frank w. Mckee, that Cote reported
at his company barracks between 9
and 10 o'clock of the night in question,
in sober condition. About II o'clock
the captain was notified by the COM
pany sergeant that Cote appeared
sick. He found him in commissions and
phoned the surgeon, who sent the man
to the hospital Cote then showed no
signs Of physical violence and spoke
of none.
The surgeons told the detective that
Cote was suffering from cerebral hem
orrhage. with the resulting paralysis,
was unconscious and never regained
consciousness. He showed no signs Of
physical violence. All the other persons
interviewed who saw him on that day
said that he was perfectly sober and
they saw no signs Of liquor or violence.
1t will be remembered also that the
Biddeford undertaken was reported to
have said the same thing.
Arthur Cote's service was in Co. G,
LIST Maine Infantry in the Spanish
American war. His first admission to
the National Home was on Nov. IA,
1914.

State House Chat.

Said prominent State House official
since his return from a trip to Frank
lin county: Yes. had a very pleasant
trip, but talk about fishing-why, we
can trim that part Of the State to a
standstill on fishing. We were told
that such and such a lake was the fin
est fishing ground in the country and
we had heard similar talk before, so
anticipated a great treat. Well. we put
in most of the day around that lake and
so did the occupants of at least 25 9TH
err boats, but not a single fish did we
see. Why, our aquarium here has
more real fish. 1 believe, than that
whole pond. But we had a good time"
1t is found by inquiry at the secre-
tary of States Office that the name Of
William Clarence Ford Of Whitefield as
primary candidate for the nomination
for State senator from Lincoln coun-
ty was omitted through error from the
published list. Mr.. Fords papers were
properly filed and his name will be
placed on the official ballot.
Walter B. Fraser of the State audi
tors department has returned from a
four-days trip to South Portland, where
he has been auditing the books of the
State School for Boys.
Frank H. Sterling, clerk Of the Board
of State Assessors, who has been con-
fined to his home for about two weeks
with a serious attack Of erysipelas, is
improving, being able on Monday to sit
up for the first time. He hopes to be
able the first Of the coming week to
return to his duties at the department.
