REV. DOUCHERTY
GUEST AT ROTARY
LUNCHEON TODAY
CAPTAIN THOMAS JAMES AL
so ATTENDS; DR.. yALDEs
NEW MEMBER ADDED TO
ROLL DURING MEETING
4

Rev. +. X. Dougherty, Of the
Catholic Church, was the principal
speaker at the Rotary luncheon to-
day, dwelling on the subject OF
unfortunate Ones" His re-
marks were confined chiefly to
those who had once been pros
porous, but were now almost in
destitute condition, stating that
these were the ones who fell the
sting a great deal more than those
who have never had the oppor-
tunity of enjoying the luxuries of
life.
Although, he stated that those
who have always been poor still
suffer to some extent, which is no
more than natural, but said that
these also receive the same sym
pathy of mankind, regardless Of
former wealth or position.
He also touched on educational
matters, saying that he felt that it
would be much better if the
schools and colleges would teach
more of character building than
that of mere books. His talk was
greatly enjoyed by those assemble
ed on the occasion.
DR.. Jose Valdes was a new mem
Der added to the roll of the club,
and was given an initiation talk
by William II. Malonne.
Lloyd Guy. superintendent of
the gas plant, and Captain Thomas
James, United States Navy, were
also guests of the club at its meet
ing today.
There were several other mat
tiers discussed during the session,
which was an enthusiastic one
throughout.

COURSON TAKES
] STAND TODAY in
HIS OWN BEHALF
GIVES PICTURE OF UNRULY
BOY IN PRISON; CLAIMS
MAfLLEFERT GAVE HIM
MUCH TROUBLE

JACKSONVILLE, Oct. 13.A
picture of an unruly and defiant
prisoner who resisted fatherly eff
forts to get him to reform and
serve his sentence peacefully.
was drawn today by George w.
Courson, former Sunbeam camp
captain, charged with the youths
sweatbox death.
Taking the stand behind a
parade of defense Witnesses, who,
although differing in details some-
what, testified Maillefert often
threatened to suicide and eontinu-
ally tried to escape.
Courson told the jury he had
not been cruel to the boy and had
no wish to kill the prisoner. and
had tried to do his duty and make
Maillefert serve out his time.
Smiling and occasionally lick
ing his lips, Courson related he en-.
treated with Maillefert to desist
from causing trouble but told him
he had to see that the sentence was
served.
Maillefert, he said, declared he
had served his sentence and was
going home. Courson answered,
'.no, you have nine years and I'm
here to see you do it"
The youth was quoted as an
swering "no, I'm going to hell
then" At one time Courson said
Maillefert asserted eff you don't
kill me you're dirty dog"
Courson admitted he once whip
ped Maillefert but in contrast with
state witnesses, who said he used
hose like q boxcar coupling.
Courson said the hose was "about
as big as my finger" adding that
he let Maillefert up when another
convict interceded, saying he
would show the captain where
saws were hidden by which Mall
lefert had cut his shackles.
