RANDOLPH MAN
FOUND GUILTY OF
DRUNKEN DRIVING

A verdict Of "guiIty" was returned
by the Jury Saturday morning at the
kennebec superior court i'm the case
Of William Rines Of Randolph, charg-
ed with driving motor vehicle while
under the influence of intoxicating IL
Quors. Sentence was deferred at this
time. The trial was short, the State
presenting three witnesses and no de-
Tense was made.
Officer Frank Cotheran Of Randolph,
the main witness for the State, testi-
fed that on the evening Of November
10 at about 11.S0 he had seen an auto
mobile zig-zagging down hill in RAN
dolph and that Just before it reached
him it swerved out Of the road, over
ditch and onto the sidewalk. where
IL overturned. He hurried to the car
which had curtains on, and assisted
the respondent from 1t, helping him
out through the place which had been
covered by a rear curtain. The re-
spondent was the only man he had
seen in the car and was apparently
under the influence Of intoxicating IL
quor. Later he had taken him to the
Gardiner police station.
Officers Michael Cusick and Mel
Watson testified that they had seen
the respondent when he was brought
into the Gardiner station and that he
was under the influence of liquor.
The argument Of the defense was to
the effect that as he had been taken
from tho rear seat. according to the
States witnesses, the State had not
proved that he was driving the car.
The jury was then excused until
Monday morning at $50 o'clock
Joseph Wood of Somerville. Mass.
was released upon personal recog-
nizance in the sum Of $500 to await
ment for breaking, entry and larceny
Of jewelry valued at about $175. An
investigation of his record has brought
to light that he is an old offender in
Massachusetts, and that he is now
wanted there for violation of parole.
His record shows that he was convict
ed Of breaking and entering on Janu-
airy 9. 1922, at the Middlesex superior
court and that he was sentenced to an
indefinite sentence of not more than
five years in Jail. He was released
from there on June %. 1928.
Previous to that time he had the
following court record: Convicted OF
larceny on Jan. 23. 1911, in Maiden
and placed on probation: convicted in
the same court Of a similar offense on
Jan. IA, 1917, and again placed on pro-
baton, and on February 1. 1917, con-
victed Of breaking, entry and larceny
in the Maiden court. He was placed
on probation on this case. and on Feb.
20, 1917, again appeared before the
same court on a chGrge of breakine'
entry and larceny. He was sent TO
