MONTPELIER


debtorA oath, was dropped Monday att |
ernoon. Ciardelli was committed to Jail
when he did not pay Judgment of 1898,
with costs, which Aciilli Perolini OBJ
tanned against him some months since IN
county court. Evidence presented by ).
Ward Carver for the plaintiff in the case
showed that Ciardelli had sufficient mon
ey IN bank in Barre on the day preced- |
ing the service Of the writ upon Ciardelll
to pay the judgment. When this evil
dence was submitted, Mr.. Jackson stated
to the court that he did not know OF
that condition of affairs and that his
client had told him he did not have
means to pay the judgments therefore,
he withdrew his petition.
As sequel of the visitation which the
probation department made to the home
of N. Monti Saturday afternoon when
the officers found FIVE barrels of liquor
and on the evidence presented III court
Monday morning, raid was promptly
made by the police, with Chief Connolly
in charge, which resulted in Month giving
bail late in the afternoon for his appear
ance for hearing at date to be hxed
later, while four barrels of sour wine
were taken from the home Monti IN
court stated upon inquiry from States
Attorney f. r. Davis that his wife had
been giving their boarders glass OF llq-
uor with their meals instead of coffee or
tea. According to the decision IN the
Rocco Lotti case, argued many years ago
in supreme court, this constitutes a sale.
The general impression prevailed among
the officers that Monti was more TO
blame about conditions at his home than
his wife. There are, however, eonhicting
stories. 1t is claimed Monti abuses ms
wife, while other persons tell OF tine wlie
driving Monti out of the house with
butcher knife. Directly after the court
adjourned, which was near noon Monday
the warrant for search and seizure at
Months home was made out and placed
in Chief Connolly's hands He went to
the house and promptly arrested Monti,
taking him to the police station, while
his assistants raided the house. One bar
rel of the sour wine found there Satur'
day afternoon was gone, but four were
seized and Month was lodged in jail, later
giving bail.
