Carr was before the court Monday and for lack of evidence he was placed un der bail for further hearing on Wed-. nesday. In 'the absence of State's Attorney Albert Farman, the state was re presented by Aaron H. Grout. Hu bert S. Pierce was attorney for the defendant. Carr is charged with the larceny of one horse valued at $100, wagon $100, harness "$25, fur coat $50, and rifle valued at $35.00, the property of John Lebeau of Brownington. The only witness to take the stand Wednesday was John Lebeau, from whom the pro perty is claimed to have been stolen, and Sheriff E. J. Hill, who with Dep uty Sheriff Charles U. Ladd of Der by made the arrest. Testimony introduced by Mr. Le beau brought out the following story. Mr. Lebeau, who is a farmer in Brownington, was about to take a trip to Lawrence, Mass., for a few days' visit. Previous to his departure James Carr began to work for him, the date4 of which was Oct. 2 1. Mr. Lebeau, in company with his wife, left by auto Monday, Nov. 7, for his in tended trip, leaving Carr in charge of the farm, and to do the chores. Upon his return home by train Sun day night, he telephoned home to have Mr. Carr come . and get him at the station. Being unable to get any an swer, he telephoned a neighbor, who told him that Carr had disappeared and had taken the team. Upon Mr. , Lebeau arriving, home, the above named property was found missing. A search "was begun, which resulted in his locating Carr at the home of a brother, Sheldon Carr, in Holland. Monday night he drove to Holland and Sheriffs Hill and Ladd also ap peared at the Carr home. The miss ing property was all found at the Carr home and the defendant was arrested and brought to Newport. Sheriff Hill testified t0 finding Carr in bed and making the arrest, and bringing him to Newport. In the argument made by Attorney Pierce, he tried to show the court that the case was one of trover and not. larceny, that Carr took the team, rifle and coat to wear for the pupose of going deer hunting, that there was no intent to steel on his part and no " L evidence showing that during the six days that he had the goods had he tried to dispose of same, that none" of the property1 was found concealed, the rifle was hanging on the wall back of the stove anvthe fur coat was also hanging in the kitchen and horse, wagon and harness were in the barn, and none had been injured. Mr. Grout made a strong argument for" the state, and. the court bound Mr. Carr over under . $.1000 bail for trial, at the March term of Orleans county court. Judge W. M. Wright had a quiet afternoon at Monday's session of the municipal court, only one case coming before him. Ora Vadnais, a farmer in Wol cott, appeared in court charged with petit larceny. It -is claimed that Vadnais helped himself to a buggy wagon valued at $25, the property of Jerry Buckley of Barton, the wagon bein taken from the barn on land owned by Buckley two miles north of Barton village on the river road to Orleans. Mr. Vadnais was repre sented by Hubert Pierce and he plead not guilty. The bail fixed by the court was $300 which is being ar ranged for'.
