GOLF LOTS LOSE
 VILLAGE BARBER
LarOse Given Light Sen= tence When Assault
 Victim Forgives

Joseph Larose. 46, had his resi- dence changed from the settle ment at the golf lots to Brookside where he will get his mail for the next 30 days following an order passed by Judge Edward Mascolo in city court today. Joe was de- scribed by his friend, Bernard Reilly, also of the golf lots, as a "good fellow when he is sober but wicked when drunk. Reilly ap- peared in court with his right hand swathed in bandages as a re- suit of tussle with Larose and Larose's knife at Reillys hut at the lots last Tuesday evening.
 The charge was changed from assault to intoxication in city court today after Reilly's story.
 Reilly, after describing what a good fellow Larose was, enlarged a bit to state that Joe" was the settlement barber who cut hair, gave slaves and shined shoes Reilly said there are between 20 and 25 settlers at the golf lot set clement at the present time.
 On the morning in question, Reilly. noticing that Larose was drinking left his hut and did not return until about z o'clock. Larose had been fighting with other set tiers at the settlement and when he saw Reilly he followed him into his hut. He began an argument with Reilly and during its course, picked up a large knife. Reilly, fearing he would be attacked. grabbed for the knife. Larosc withdrew. pulling the knife through Reilly's hands, severing several tendons in the fingers.
 Treatment was necessary for Reilly at St Mary's hospital.
