The scene .efIthe assault is a farm
six miles from Westbrook and about
four miles from Clinton, in a rather
desolate section. inhabited mainly by
German farmers: This morning a re-

the assault was dead and Coroner Ste-
phen B. Davis. of Mlddlelown. came
here by on early train to conduct an
investigation. On going to the farm
house with Deputy Sheriff David A.
Fox and the medical examiners he
found Treibel still living. and as the
physicians ‘thought the injured man
might live a day or two, the coroner
returned to Mlddletown and will take
no further action at present. He or-

Trial, Goes Over
John K. Lent, of Silvermlne. who
was placed underlarrcst yesterday by
Captain Robert N. Morehouae. on com
plaint of‘IState Truant agent cues
Potter. and later released on a cash
bond of 360. appeared thuis morning
before Judge Edward M. Laokwood.
but the case was continued until next
Saturday morning. because of the ill-
ness of Mr. Leat’s attorney. Devi
Warner.
The case has become of widespread
interest to the parents of The Nor-
walks because of the question involv-
ed. According to the complaint Mr.
Lent has a daughter Ethel, who was
fourteen years of age on August 17
last and it Is stated that fol a time
she was employed as h-‘clerk in the old
Buttery graccry store in Silvermlne
There are three counts in the writ.
one for each week the child was kept
out. of school, to wit. the weeks end-
ing November 24, December 1 and De-
cember 8. Mr. Lent was not notified
untll‘I‘November 17 by Mr. Potter, and
consequently there is no charge for
the time before that date that the
child did not attend school.
According to the new law the state
board of education and the school
board of a town are to act concur-
rently and the town school board has
the right to say how much education
1
lowed to leave school betwoen the
ages of fourteen and sixteen years.
The Norwaik school visitors have de-
creed that a child must have at least
the sixth grade of the common school
course in order to have the right. to
leave school. if they are under sixteen
years of age. Mr, Leni's daughter was
in the fifth grade but it now in the
fourth. The authclitios therefore
claim that. he is sulyjcct
the complaint.
The Jana-on
acts is as follows: .
Whenever the school visitors, town
school calamittee on, board of odd
tion of any town or district shall
vote decide or whenever the state
board of education shall ascertain that
a child over fourteen and under six‘
teen years of age has not schooling
sufficient to warrant. his leaving
school to be employed; and shall so
notify the parent or guardian of said
child in writing, the parent or guard-
ian of said child shall cause him to
atioud school regularly during the
days and hours that the public school
in the district in which said parent or
guardian resides in in seesioa. and
until the parent or guardian of said
child has obtained from said board
of school visitors. town schoul com
mlttee, or board of education.9or from
the state board of education. it the
notice shall have. been given by the
said state board of education a leav-
ing certificate stating that the educa»
tion of said child is satisfactory to
said visitors, town school committee.
or board of education. or to said state
board of education. as the case may
be; provided. that said parent or
guardian shall not be required to cause
his child to attend school after the
child is sixteen years of age.
week' a failure on the port of a person
to comply with the provisions of this
section shall be a distinct offense.
punishable with a flue not exceeding
five dollars. and the ovlslons of
Section 2117 shall be app lcnble to all
proceedings under this act.
The act was approved May 2. 1905.
The Lent child is mrolled at the
Winnlpauk or North West District
School and Principal George E
Thompson and one of the teachers.
Miss Florence London. was .on hand
this morning as witnesses in the case.
Mr. Potter's side of the case is being
taken care of by Prosecuting Attor-
ney Leo Davis. Attorney Louis GoltiI
schmidt appeared and asked for the.
continuance.
The authorities claim that Mr. Lent
has been defiant in the matter and has
stated that he know the school lnws
- and would send his child to school
when he chose. lie formerly resided
in the town of Stamford and had a
certificate of one. for. his daughter
from that place.
