To Ask Court to Mol Pros Case

Attorney Ernest II. O'Brien has re-
ceived word through one. of his attor-
neys, Joseph c. Jones, that Attorney
General Archibald will ask the court
to nol-pross the case of perjury
against him which is pending in Rut-
land county court and entered fol
early trial. Recently, Attorney w. r.
Ne F'eeters of St. Adams became as
sociated with Mr.. Archibald in the
prosecution of the case and after eX-
haustive examination with the attor-
ney-general became convinced that
the state had no case and conviction
could not be secured. Hence the
decision to drop proceedings.
The perjury charged is in connec-
ton with testimony given by Mr.. o.
Brien in the Eastman Marble COM
pany litigation. Some time ago charg-
cs of unprofessional conduct were
made against Mr.. O'Brien and the
commission appointed to investigate
the same recommended that Mr..
O'Brien's name be stricken from the
roll of attorneys in the state, and he
was discharged.
