DOUBLEDAY TO
GET new TRIAL
Court Rules He Was
Deprived Of Right to
Give Testimony

The state supreme court ut
Olympia Wednesday had ordered a
new trial for Robert S. Doubleday.
T2-year-old Tacoma writer, who
was found guilty by a jury last
June on a charge of grand larceny.
The jury in Superior Judge Fred
G. Remains courtroom upheld the
contention Of the state when he
was accused of embczzlement of
IS. 600 worth Of Liberty bonds Nov.
8. 1888, while he served as admins
TRAITOR of the estates of Bridget
and Dominic McFadden.
The supreme court, however,
held that Doubleday had been
wrongsully deprived Of a chance to
testify at his trial. The state court
held he had legal right to give
testimony of conversations he had
with Mrs. McFadden before her
death concerning disposition of the
bonds.
The charge of grand larceny was
filed against Doubleday by Deputy
Prosecutor A. NJ. Ursich after fed
eral authorities reported the elderly
man had allegedly converted into
cash the bonds made out in the
name OF Mrs. McFadden, after she
died and while ne was acting as
administrator of the estate. No
mention Of the bonds was made in
the administrators report on the
estate. Ursich charged.
Doubleday commended that prior
to death Of Mrs. McFadden. she
Ind told him he was to receive the
bonds In return for services rend-
cred during the lifetime of she and
her husband. who were neighbors
Of Doubleday.
II was this testimony the lower
court declined to allow entered in
the records. The state court. how
ever. ruled Doubleday had a legal
right to present testimony Of the
conversation with Mrs. McFadden
before her death.

are scant indeed compared with our
crime record. The only culprits
whose activities have been strenu-
GUS enough to break into the local
papers since we've been here are
reputed to be the followers of one
"Chaco Chico" a suspected kid
naper accused of other misdeeds.
The authorities say he issued or

another shady character. The wind

I'm glad to hear that Patagonia
is not too wild and woody. We have
train reservations we don't wish to
concel. For several days we've been
negotiating by wire to turn out some

This is proving difficult, as it's the
rainy season and the gauchos' horses
may not be able to outrun the long
