Four in Court after
Sat. Night Accident
On Bad Hill in Chelsea

w. e. POLAND Of Augusta, driver
of the sedan which was found tipped
against the fence Of the foot Of Gully
Hill in Chelsea, Saturday night, was
sentenced to serve 80 days in Jail
and pay a fine of 500 and costs. or
so days additional In default Of pay
ment by Judge Will c. Atkins in the
Gardiner Municipal court Monday
morning. Through his attorney,
Burleigh Martin, Mr.. POLAND ap-
pealed the sentence and furnished
bonds in the sum Of $500 for his ap-
pearance at the January term Of the
Superior court.
Through Mr.. Martin the respon-
dent waived the reading Of the war
rant and the trial proceeded with
out this Formally. Deputy Sheriff
Arthur G. Robinson testified that he
with Deputies Forrest Brown and
Frank Cotheran had found the car
in Its dangerous position about II
o'clock Saturday night and five men
were standing by the machine. One
escaped into the woods as the off,
GERS approached but the other four
were held and taken to the Gardiner
jail. He declared that the four men
were all in an intoxicated condition,
and while some were more so than
POLAND that he (F'olland) was under
the influence of liquor, this being
evident by his general appearance
and unsteadiness on his feet, the
deputy also said that he smelIed
liquor off POLAND. Mr.. Robinson
said that he could procure Deputy
Frank Cotheran, Fireman Bert
Hinckley, and Harold Watson to
testify that POLAND was under the
influence of liquor. Attorney Martin
then inquired If Officer Michael
Cusick of the night force was quail
fed to testify, and it so why had he
not been called. Mr.. Robinson re-
pied that he did not consider this
necessary but at this point Is min
ute recess was called in order that
Officer Cusick might be interviewed.
When the court session was re-
sumed Attorney Martin announced
that he did not care to put any wit
nesses on the stand but went on to
speak of the respondents good repu-
tation in Augusta and pointed out
that 1t was his first appearance in a
police court and that it would prob
ably be his last. This argument was
or no avail as the Judge pronounced
sentence as given above.
Charles Tibbetts and Howard Raw
son of this city and Alphaus Moore
OF Augusta, the other occupants of
the car were each fined SO and costs
amounting to SO each on a charge
Of drunkenness.
