To the evident satisfaction of the fed
eral authorities, Leonardo Gattoni, a
Barre granite cutter who was detained
last week because the officials drought
he had wrongfully failed to register, has
established his age as 81. The man has
been released from custody, although
Deputy Marshal G. +. Lackey expects to
verify his deposition by obtaining from
New York the age entered by him when
he landed several years ago Gattoni, il
is said, traces the misunderstanding to

age as 2S. The granite cutter produced
a receipt from an Italian benefit society
of Barre which indicated that his age
was correctly given at 80.
