lirciiisii His Head Hiiri
Patrilk Gpfin Milli the Monroe wood
chopper, wiio‘ It} held at thd county
.lohn Gorham, by shooting
him with a shot gun, at their home in
Monroe, Friday night. as told in Sat-
urday's Sentinel. consented last night
to tell his story. He said:
“l‘do not know who shot my son.
We. had all been at work in the woods
first day chopping—~myself and my
four boys. and about 4 o‘clock I came
down' to the house ahtl my son .Iohli
rame also. After putting out my team
i went into the house. feelir'fg sick I
have a sure on my head that at times
makes my hood ache awfully and that.
utter-noon it was in bad shape. so I
went into the house and into my bed-
room and lay down on‘ my bad. The
door of tho rdom was shut and my son
was out in the next room. I had been ‘
lying down but a little while. when I
heard another man talking with my
son. .
"i couldn‘t just understand what.
they. were talking about. I overheard
only these words. ‘Yes' ‘No' and "You
shall not go Willi her again.’ I judy.
cd from that my son and this maing
who ever he was were having a rlls- i
little over some woman
“A few minutes later I heard- a gun
shot. i jumped from the bed and
started for the door. but as I did- so I
hit the sore on my head on the side
of the door, and unused it to discharge.
It hurt. me and i picked up a towel
from the floor and held it up to my
head and at once went out into the
next room. '
“I saw no one there. My son lny
upon the floor wt in a stream of blood
running from his throat where he had
been shot. i took hold of his hand.
rolled it up and it dropped down by
his side and I saw that he. was dead.
i looked out of the door. but saw no-
thing of the man with whom i had
heard my son talking a few minutes
before. i then went into the house,
and went to bed. leaving my son's
body lying on the floor. i did not glvr
an alarm. although there are neigh-
bors living just across the street from
my house who could hare. heard any
outcry I might have made. i did not
do this because. my head when so and
hurt me that i had to go in and lie
down on the bed.
'About ten minutoslater one or my
sons came in and the boy saw his
brother lying dead on the door. That a
nil‘ I know about it. i had no words
with the son Who was shot that day.
There wen no ill feelings between us.
He was 42 years old He had not been
drinking that My or etching nor had
i. l hail drank nothing in two months.
“I did not shoot him I do not know
who did. unless it was done by the
man with whom I heard him talking
just a few minutes before the shot was
tired. I own a shot gun. It is an old
muzzle loader. I use ordinary paper
not had it loaded in some time. Two
weeks ago i. shot it off at a crow.
Since then it has stood unloaded in my
bed r'.oom
“My son's body lay upon the door.
with the right side turned toward me.
The wound was in the left aide of the
neck. Whoever shot him had got clear
of the house before i could reach the
room. which was not more than 12
feet from where. I lay. They say that
the shot was fired from my bedroom.
That could not be, for I was there all
the while and did not~see=sny one fire
it. I don' t know If the shot was heard
by any at the neighbors or whether it
was heard by my son. who entered the
boobs about ten minutes after an
brother had been shot. The shooting
took place about ten minutes past. five
thlt evening. it was about 6 o‘clock
when the first boy came into the
house.
“I do not know who the woman was
about whom the maxi and my son were
talking a few minutes before this direct-
ing. I do not know of any woman he
had been connected with or What was
meant by the raw words I overheard
Not more than three minutes could
have phased from the time the. shot
was fired before i was in the roost
where my son lay but he was dead.
and there was no trace of anyone up-
on the promises.
"I do not know what the man wno
shot him did with his gun He must
have taken it with him. I did not see
any man abbot the place that day. and
have not the IIslightest Idea who this
man could be,”

INTERESTED.
In Raprenntativa Pratt’s Bill for
County Sanitariuma in the stain.
Members of then medical fraternity
manifest more than passing interest
in the bill sent into the house. last
Wednesday by Representative Pratt,
of Torrington. It provides for the ca-
tablishment of a hospital for the treat
ment of pulmonary tuberculosis; also
for the appointment of a state board
of trustees. the purchase by them of
sufficient land for the enclosure of
buildings for not less than 100 patients
and that the. \ill‘lOllr; towns shall pay
the expense of such inmates as came
from their jurisdictlbn and are unable
to pay. Ah ap‘p’r‘opr’istlon of $160. 000
is made for this purpose.
Some time ago the Fairfield County
Medical Association discussed the sub
ject of pulmonary tuberculosis, com-
monly referred to as consumption. in
the‘hopes that'stops might be taken to
in some way control the dreaded dis-
ease. It was through the. efforts of the
association that the ordinance requir-
Ing physicians attending consumption

There was some talk. then

When asked concerning the subject
County Health 0diccr Hill of Bridge-
port. replied that he could not say
whether or not the county association
would take any definite action.
Dr. G. S. Ford. clerk of the associa
tion was asked as to whether he luv
cred a county lnatltutlt'm or as des
cribod in the bill presented to the leg
islature. He said “I have not read the
bill‘but from the abstract printed in
the state press I think it would be
more for the public weltare it each
county had its own institution.
."0f course the expense of one for
each county would be great. but the
benefits to be derived more than make
up. In my judgement a hospital large
enough for only r00 patients is much
too small for the needs of the entire
state
“There are ilti many persons in Fair

Barrett. as far as any conduct which
would warrant a discharge. lint advis-
es the union to leavo'hia case out of
the peace negotiations entirely. and
asks the men to go ahead with a set-
tlement on the other differences.
Manager Sewell on Saturday replied
to the proposed agreement submitted
by the men In the form of an ulti-
