DIRE to % counts of embezzlement of
bank funds totaling, in round num-

his wife, two brothers and counsel,

TO be ''as merciful as your grave re-
sponsibilities will permit" he declared
that Gilpatric would never recover
from his wound, that "his senses are
clouded and dying" and that he is

H1e took the money and it is gone,
and that is why he is here today"
In passing sentence Judge Thomas

notified at Skowhegan. O'Brien was
traced through Browns Corner TO

through into Piscataqus County,

up the trail at that point. The girl
was said to be thinly clad without Il
hat, and the pair were without money,
