victim of alcoholic dementia. Rip
ley said he did not drink for a lit

continued to drink heavily.

. Tooian, representing the state, en-.
deavored to ecure Ripley's sigma

defendants attorney were sus-
tanned by the court.
Ripley, upon cross examination,

The testimony Of DR.. John v.
Smith. of Perth Anlboy. and Drs.
