|0F BELLOWS VS.. BELLOWS
BEFORE JUSTICE CORNISH

Justice Leslie C. Cornish Friday at
the courthouse on a bill in equity

ing for an Injunction to restrain the
defendant from making any claim to
a deposit of about s1100 standing in
the name OF Flora NJ. Bellows in the
bank of Nova Scotia situated at

From the facts presented in the
matter, it appeared that the defend
ant conveyed his farm in Winslow to
the plaintiff on April 10. 1916. In
May, 1920, when Mr.. Bellows was ac-
cused of rape for which he was sub
sequentIy tried, convicted and SEN
fenced in the Kennebec county su-
perior court. he and his wife went to
Woodstock, n. B. and remained there
until October 1920, when they went
to Biddeford.
In July Mrs. Bellows sold the farm
and placed part of the purchase price
in the bank Of Nova Scotia in the
name of Mrs. Bellows. Mr.. Bellows
was arrested in Biddeford and tried
AZ the January term, 1921 OF the
Ncnnebec superior court: was con-
victed and received sentence Of from
seven to IA years In State prison.
Last summer. Mrs. Bellows endeav-
orcd to draw the money from the
bank, but her husband had notified
the bank of his claim to it. There
fore this bill in equity was brought
to restrain him from making any
claim to any part Of the money.
The defendant claimed that when
the farm was sold it was agreed that
the net proceeds amounting to $4,000
should be divided equally and that
this sum in the Nova Scotia bank
was Mr.. Bellows share.
The plaintiffs reply was that cen
on this basis, Mr.. Bellows share had
been expended in connection with the
defense in his case and outstanding
bills
Attorney Ellsworth F. Peacock OF
Waterville appeared as counsel for
the plaintiff. and William Tudor
Gardiner OF the law firm of Andrews,

Tributes to Late "Doc" Richards

absent local pastor are splendid
words of tribute to the late G. ".

editor of the Kennebec Journal:

Globe yesterday of the death of poor

friend of the common ways, faring
forth on the great venture. that

companions of labor and play go
away.

who has not? But he had virtues.

all with sincerity and good will. May
he find rest and peace and conlpan-
ionship in the Homeland.
This from Bangor paper:
Newspaper men all over the State
will learn with regret of the passing
of Charles w. Richards, associate
editor Of the Kennebec Journal.
Known as Doc to newspaper
workers, Mr.. Richards held the af-
lection of all who knew him we'll.

task energy and that love for his

work are we'll aware of the wiling
ness Of Mr.. Richards to aid in every

Richards are now left in harness in
Maine or elsewhere. An infinite cap
