WAS $500 LOAN OR GIFT IS QUESTION

whetSer $500 that passed from
William A Frazier Of this city to his
sister the late Mrs. Emma c. Bailey
widow of Stephen A. Bailey, was gift
or a loan is a question to be decided by
the jury in the superior court before
which trial of the suit of Mr.. Frazier to
recover the money was begun here early
Thursday afternoon before Judge George
E. Human.
The suit was entered over a year ago
by Gilbert s. Raymond, who was then
conservator of Mr.. Frazier, but the lat.
ter is now prosecuting 1t himself as he
has since then proved his capacity to
handle his own affairs and the conserva-
tor has been removed. The. suit is de-
Tended by Howell S. Bailey, admins
traitor of his mothers estate. Attorney
Arthur F. Libby is counsel for Mr.. Fra
zier, Thomas NJ. Shields and William H
Shields, Jr, appearing for Administrator
Bailey.
Mr.. Frazier, who was a former resident
of Groton, where his first wife died Oc-
tober 10, 1917, testified that his niece,
Mrs. Lottie Shugrue. visited him in Gro
ton and suggested that he come to live
with Mrs. Bailey in Norwich. He did
so on Oct. II, and stayed with the
Bailey family until a day in January,
1918, when he left because he had a
fuss with Mrs. Bailey. Shortly after he
came to the Bailey home, he testified.
his sister told him she didn't know where
the moneE was coming from to pay her
town taxes of close to 500, He gave her
| 500 and told her to keep the change.
While he was at the Bailey house he
said he was buying things for the table
constantly taking his sister on car rides
and to the theatre. aid in short, as he
said, providing money galore.
He told the court that his sister had
a mortgage on the place and remarked
to him that she didn't like the WORD
mortgage" He agreed that he did not
either and he thought if he provided the
money to pay off the mortgage it would
put his sister on easy street. He furn
ished $4,000, which was paid over II

was never paid over because of the
that arose between him and Mrs.
Bailey He claimed that there was con-
siderable talk between mis- sister and
himself about an agreement that was to
be made but the agreement was never
executed.
Relating more of the way he spent
money, while he was at the Bailey house,
Mr.. Frazier said that he provided the
Thanksgiving dinner and also the Christ
mas dinner at which there was party
of about twelve, including members of
the family of George f. Pitcher. For
the Christmas dinner, Mr.. Frazier said
he provided two of the finest Ledyard
turkeys that money could buy, and he
gave Mr.. Pitcher a $40 box of cigars
and gave crisp new s! bills 20 the others
of the Christmas party. He also claim
ed that he bought tires and oil and gas
oline for Mr. Pitchers automobile.
After leaving Mrs. Bailey's home, he
lived for five weeks with family on
Grove street and then in two rooming
houses in this city lie said that he had
$4,000 in two banks when his wife died
but not so much money now. 1t was
also brought out IN the testimony that
he had been in a sanatorium in SIAM
ford for about three weeks in the sum-
mer before his wife died. He asserted
positively that the $4,000 was a loan
and not a gift to Ais sister.
The claim of the defense is that the
money was a gift.

THE DIVERS PERILS

A diver risks his life every time he
descends below the surface of the sea.
for countless dangers beset him in
his under sea work.
One of the greatest risks he runs is
the fouling of the air pipes. A French
diver has Just lost his life in this way,
though working at a depth of only 50
feet.
To prevent such fouling the diver
must be very careful to note exactly
where he wanders once he touches
ground so that he "an return .Ee same

entangled and it is the hardest thing
in the world to free it in the partial

TROLLEY CAR TO RUN
NEARER GROTON FERRY

A hole was dug Wednesday in front of
the store of G. H. Hampstead & Son,
Groton in which will be erected a pile
to support a trolley wire. On account of
the rain the pole was not set but as soon
as the wire has been put up the trolley
cars which now st1p at the foot of
Pleasant street will be run as far as
the corner of School and Thames streets.
Much criticism has been caused recently
on account of the distance which trolley
patrons must walk in order to board the
trolley but this condition was necessary
on account of the narrowness of the
street at points north. Under the new
plan the trolley will stop where there
will be enough room on all sides for auto
mobile traffic.
