SAND HILL RESULT IN TWO LIQUOR CASES
THURSDAY AT LOCAL MUNICIPAL COURT

Delaware declared that he was a
very sick man when the sheriffs came,
as a result of the shot" which had
been administered to all of the men
of the regiment that day at Camp
Reyes. He admitted that he had in
vited several friends from the regi-
ment to come to his house for a drink
of beer but staunchly denied that any
had been sold.
The officers testified that when they
entered the Duberine home the same
night there was no one there, but later
Mrs. Duberine returned They found
a large can, which would hold 10 or Is
gallons and which contained about
eight gallons of beer. Mrs. Duberine
had declared when they took it that
they were taking bread and butter
right out of his mouth" apparently
referring to her husband. The officers
had watched the house and had seen
many soldiers go into it.
The respondent said that he used II
for medicinal purposes and that If he
had been going to sell the beer he
would have had much more. as such a
small amount would not go very far
when being retailed. Mrs. Duberine
testified likewise, saying that her hus-
Regiment, particularly in the Bldde-
ford company, and that they came to
see him. She said that this was the
first batch of beer that had been made
and later when the respondent was
asked by the Judge IL it was good stuff
! he replied: II don't know. l didn't
get a chance to find out" She testi-
fed that her husband receives S11.54
a week from the city since he was in
jured while at work for them.
Mrs. Bolduc, testifying for her hus-
band in the intoXication case, admitted
that he got hot" once in while, but
she said that If the judge would give
him a chance she thought he would dc
better in the future. When Judge Cony
responded. that he had given him sew,
eral chances, she pointed out that
there is always q first time. In pro-
nouncing sentence the court stated that

Mills and Weber Pond were the
towns represented. The people
present received a genuine but very
pleasant surprise in being able to
warmly welcome once more their
former pastor and his wife, Rev.

Rix, who founded the services and
Sunday school here four years ago,
preached one of his usual interest

Has to get good rent, too.
Has to meet the folks of Mrs,
Get the once-over and Q. K:
But the getting back to business,
Is the hardest part, we'll say.
Course you people kind of fooled US,
Let us down mile, in fact:
But We're good, forgiving. people
And we'll overlook that act.
When a couple up and marry
All their friends come "snilin'
through;
May the years smile just as brightly
AS today we smile on you.
