He arrived at his ome about 5:30 o'clock in the aftern n and he saw Jack Beers standing :1 front of the house. They went insli and att- er awhile his wife asked him if he would go to the store to go some por- egoric for one of the chidren. In company with Beers he eta ed out for the store and Beers asked‘him where he could get some cider. ‘They tried one place but did not get it, as the man of the house saw that, Beers had about all the drink he nee‘ ed. Denied Threats Scodeld went to the sto . and after having made his purchases he left the. place about 8 o’clock and out home. He had supper and aftlr a smoke he went to bad about 9 o'c och. Some- thing awakened him, he at d, shortly. alternate and going to -e’dOor he saw thit the lby was ve . . ,. lloosear, and in answer to a question I from his counsel, Attorney John J. Walsh, he stated that he never had had any reason for having hurd feeli lugs against Van iloosear. lie return. ed (mm the fire, went to bed and the next morning he arose and went to work for Elmer Lockwood. Later he went. bait to work in his brother's blhcksmlbh shop. He was working at the latter place when the state police came after him. , In telling about that part of the case, sootield said that one of the officers told him that he had a war- rant for his arrest and he went to his home, where he changed his clothing. after which the trip to Norwalk was begun. There were three officers in the wagon and they wanted to know Of Scofleid where they could find Jack Beers. They made a search for him, but he could not ,be located, so they once again started for the Norwalk lockup. Scofield told of being taken into a house, where he saw Attorney Hurlburt, and Officer Jackson wanted him to make a statement, but he would not. He was also asked by some Of the officers before that to make a, statement but Seofield told them that he would talk at the prop- er time. Ofticer Not Sure? After the officers and Scofleld had gotten into the wagon after leaving Attorney Ivlurlbutt, Jackson, he said, turned to him and said: “Ed, what would you do if i let you go?" Wit- ness testified that he replied, ’I'd go home." He stated that the next morning the some question was put to him by Jackson and witness said that he would go up to the shop to work. Jackson, he stated, then said to him, “God, I wish i was sure of it " While Scofleld and the Omcers were in the wagon on their way to Nor- walk, the witness said that the hand- cuffs were taken of! him by Jackson has he had told them that he wanted to smoke and also (in the trip Officer Hurley advised him to keep his mouth shut as what he would say might be used against him and be thanked the officer for advice. Married in 1905. The witness in the early part of his story told how he went to work at the blacksmith trade when he was about 20 years old and that he had worked on and off at the business ever since. He married his wife in August, 1905. and when asked by At- torney Walsh to tell the court and jury how he came to be married in Middle-town, the witness said: "We wanted to kill two birds with one stone. GO up there and get married and also see my wife's sister." The first witness this morning was Justice of the Peace William K. T. ,Hubbell of Wilton, before whom sco field was arraigned after his arrest. He told Acting State’s Attorney Puli- man while he was reciting the story or the trial, that he preferred to take the testimony of a man after he was arrested rnthen than before. He had kept minutes of the proceedings and endeavored to tell what occurred at the trial from memory and several times he contradicted himself in his testimony. Aifter he had testified to a proceeding in the trial over which he presided, Attorney Pullman asked him how that could be when his minutes stated otherwise. The wit- ness then said that his minutes of the trial might be wrong but his memory was all right. Brother Testifies. Samuel Scofleld, a brother of the accused followed Justice Hubbell and told how he went to Mrs. Nash, who was caring for his brother's children, as he had heard that they were in need. He furnished the children with clothing and also paid for their board as he had some money belong- ing to Edward and the latter wanted to have the children well taken care Of. He came to Bridgeport to have a talk with Mrs. Scofield about the children but he said she would not let her husband contribute towards their support and that when her hands and feet would not permit her to earn enough to provide for them she was going to live a life of shame. The witness said he would swear to this on a stack Of Bibles. Under Influence of Drink. in his argument to the jury acting State's Attorney Pullman said that under ordinary conditions Scofield would not have set fire to the barn, but the deed was done when the ac- cused was under the influence of hard cider, he and Jack Beers. He related how the wife, after Edward and Jack Beers went‘out with the bottles of kemsene, hurried to the home of Mr. Van Hoosesr‘n son, and told him of the plot to burn the barn, and how the latter called up his father by tele phone, and that was why Mr. Van‘ Hoosear went around the barn with a. shotgun the earlier part of the even- ing.
