Full Docket of Prisoners Groota Judge Lockwood. There was a full docket of prisoners in the Norwalk town court this morn- ing. Judge Lockwood first called the cases of Benjamin Hamilton. William Thompson, and Frederick Thompson, who took part ins drunken brawl on Saturday nigh, october 12, at the cor- ner of Brooks and Lewis streets. The cases came up for a hearing yester- day afternoon and were continued un— til 10 o’clock this morning. in order that Officer Bartram. who saw the at fray. might be present and sive his version of it. The charge against Wil- liam (“Ki”) Thompson was the most serious, as he was sober, and after knocking down Hamilton, who had, it in was claimed. assaulted Thompson's brother, the other prisoner had vicious- ly kicked him in the face. The Judge topsidered the case of the latter most serious and imposcdthe heaviest pen- 'llt)’ on him. it appeared from the ten- ‘imony of the prisoners and the officer that Fred Thompson and Hamilton were in a common drunken brawl and were in each other's company on the ‘vay home. when they were intercepted by ”Ki" Thompson. who. upon his brother‘s telling him that Hamilton had hit him. started for Hdmilton and “0mmitted the assault. After render- 'ng the latter unconscious. "Ki" left ‘nwn immediately. He then. found Trederick Thompson guilty of drunk- enness and imposed a fine of 37 and mats; Hamilton guilty of intoxication and assault on it was also shown that be also assaulted William or "Ki" Thompson. For the first count the ludge imposed a fine of $5 and costs and on the other a fine of $7. The to- tal cost to him was $18.36, which was paid by his employer. In view of the fact that "Ki" Thomp- pon had been a very troublesome pcr’ if)“ to the community and had com4 mitted an assault on a man who was unconscious by kicking him in the 'ace, be having first delivered a blow ‘hat stunned him so that he fell flat face downward. the judge committed him to Bridgeport jail for a term of dxty days and in addition to this to any the costs of prosecution. The other cases were only minor iifences and Judge Lockwood continu- ~d the cases indefinitely with a warn- iing. All of the. three pleaded guilty to drunkenness. George Tucker was ’ound helplessly drunk lying in Smith atreet last night and it took two men besides Officer storehouse to get him '0 the lockup. Thomas Gonnley while helplessly intoxicated broke a pane of class in a Wall street fruit stand last ‘lllgllt and Officer Morohousc was call- ».d to the scene and was obliged to take Gormley into custody. The other lffcnder. James F. Olmstead, was also arrested by Mr. Morebouse.
