I PORTLAND ASSAULT VICTDI DEAD.

Assailant Held in Jail at Haddam Notes. "Special to The Conrant Friday, April IS. That Constable Thomas F. Griffin, widely known as the champion bill collector of Middlesex county and a former democratic leader, was "a great big brute who attacked a defenseless woman endeavoring to protect her baby" was one of the start-line statements made by Judge Daniel J- Donahoe while suramins up before the jury late yesterday afternoon in the $5,000 damage suit which Mrs. Catherine Grace Fourette has brought against Mr.

Griffin for' injuries alleged to have been re-1 ceived at his hands two years ago. I Mr. Griffin was pictured as seizing, the woman when she tried to stop him from taking away her baby's! cradle and throwing her against the stairway. The baby was then yanked out of the cradle, according to Judge i Donahoe 's statement, and thrown onto a Deo. airs, ourene as a result of this treatment, became 111 and was confined bed for two weeka She suffered severely physically and her baby died.

Judge Donahoe said that he did not come to ask for sympathy from the jury but simple Justice. She had been wronged by the constable and he should J-v for it. He told of her struggles to make a livtng and said that her testimony was to be depended upon. Fhe had told a straightforwird story to the court. The witnesses lor the defense were all Interested parties Judge Donahoe said for both Edward Noxon and Samuel Davidson who accompanied Mr.

Griffin to the home, were liable to be sued In trespass also if the case went against Mr. Griffin. Judge Frank D. Haines In summing up for Constable Grlffln said that despite the harsh words of his brother attorney regarding Mr. Griffin he would still use the word "gentleman" in describing Mr.

Griffin. He was an officer of th law, he said, and had been elected by the people of the town of Middletown to perform the duties of the office. The writ which he was given to ierve ordered him by authority of the state of Connecticut to seize the goods in question. The goods belonged to a third party and he was carrying out his directions when he served the papers. He attacked the testimony of the witnesses for the plaintiff and eid that they were all prejudiced.

Mrs. Fourette had watted two years he said to sue and her sole re Linn was to recover some money. He asked why she had not gone to the criminal court and brought an action there. Judge Donahoe he said had a large vocabulary and had used It well. His case however was hRsed on sympathy he said.

Judge Donahoe responded briefly In rebuttal and at 6 o'clock Judge Tuttle dismissed the jury until next Tuesday morning at 10 o'clock when he will deliver his charge and the case will go to the jury for decision. Owing to ihe prominence of Constable Grlffln Is much Interest hereabouts In the case and the decision will be awaited with much interest. Murder Case In Portland.

There has been talk of school gardens but the lack of available space has practically ended that phase of the matter so that the school authorities are blending their efforts with those of the Service League for borne gardens. Children will be encouraged in their efforts to have their little back yard gardens and will be helped in every way possible by the league. Where space is not available, perso ns who are willing to allow land for that purpose will be asked to contribute. The home gardens for children are being regarded favorably by parents and persons interested in the present crista as one of the big issues in case of war will be the feeding of the country. At present only the initial steps have been taken but it is hoped that by the first of next week the movement will be in tun swing.
