the Criminal Court of Common Pleas,
in Bridgeport. '
Gozzio is thirteen, and lived with his
mother, on Kossuth street. So far as
is known, there was no reason for his
shooting young Fredericks. The
charge of manslaughter brought
against him will not come up until
Septembez, and in view at his being
sent to the reformatory, will probably
be dropped. Patsey was sentenced by
Judge George H. Vosburgh, in' the
City court, on a charge of general in-
corrigibllity. This charge was based
on evidence that he had been using
his shotgun to ,hold up newaboys.
