Michael Laukaitis. a Polish resident
of Vernon, died about 3 Wednesday
morning under conditions that indicated
acute poisoning, brought on by drinking
an alcoholic liquor. Laukaitis's wife
says a friend of her husband was at her
home on Tuesday afternoon and handed
her husband bottle from which he
drank
Laukaitis sat down to the table about
4 o'clock. his wife said. and rested his
head on the table. She thought be went
to sleep and let him remain there until
Is o'clock, when she started TO awaken
him.
She then saw that he was unconscious
and that his lips and hands had turned
purple. She could get no RESPONSE from
him whatever
Mrs LaukaitiS had DIR. \. l. Newton
called from Mortified. Mass, and he
arrived at the house which is on the
farm owned by Clark Brothers of North
ampton Mass. The man was in coma
tose condition. That was about I
o'clock
There was an odor of alcohol on the
mans breath. and he was in a moribund
condition. 1t was impossible TO get him
brick of Northfield arrived later. and
the two physicians We're unable to get
the man to respond 10 any treatment.
Laukaitis was fl years old. He leaves
ii wife and seven children.
States Attorney Harold L. Whitney
and Sheriff Frank l.. Wellman made an
investigation of the case yesterday but
lpade no arrests.
They learned that the man who gave
Laukaitis the liquor was John Chudzik
Eof Northfield Farms, Mass. farmer who
has a wife and six children. As Chudzik
lived in Massachusetts they went 90
Greenfield. returning to Chudzik.s house
with two Massachusetts officers in the
AFTERNOON.
On searching the place they found n
barrel of mash i'm the henhouse and an
empty barrel that had contained mash.
Chudzik was engaged i'm apparently try
| ing to bury some mash in manure pile
at the barn. In the house they found
several glass Jars of gallon capacity in
which was small amount of liquor. The
officers also found some colOring matter
such as is used IN coloring moOnShlnc
whiskey.~ \ number of empty bottles were
| boxed in. under the stairs, IN the barn.
No still was found.
When questioned concerning Laukaitis,
! Chudzik told the officers that Laukaitis
ltelephoned him TO bring up something to
| drink and that he went up with bottle
lof liquor which his cousin brought him
| from Turner's Falls He denied that he
made it or that he took any pay for it..
/ He said Laukaitis drank too much of the
liquor.
| DR. C. f. Whitney of the state labora-
/ tory of hygiene came here on the q o'clock
