present to diacuss the matter with the \ **!:P';*!!!?*: "l.^^°"J!!?..'!!.A^^.'j"^^
Board. The Counsellor said that the
matter was a very serious one for the
Board to take ap. The first thing to
be ascertained was if the man referred
to had paid the town moneys required
bylaw; if he has the town has not
suffered; if he has not the town can
go for his bondsmen. As to the atate
law proviaion, the town board had no
jurisdiction.
Aa to the more-serious aspect, he did not know what to say off hand. The Grand Jury was in session, ai*^d he understood that they were considering tbe matter. If malfeasance was charged and proven the town board had no jurisdiction. He stated that for malfeasance a Jostice of the Peace could be removed only by action of the Supreme' Court. We shouW suspend judgment until we ascertain the facta.
Supervisor Smith remarked: Judge Norton has paid all fines as reported to me.
Counsellor Smith: "If there is nothing due the town that aspect is re¬ moved ; so far as any violation of the law is concerned that is ouf of your jarisdiction."
Supervisor Smith also called atten¬ tion to a claim made in one of the town papers regarding bills contracted against the Overseers of the Poor ac¬ count, and he was directed to employ ^oansel to get at a proper statoa of these claims against tbe town.
to give out a detailed statement of his side of the matter he said he felt con¬ fident of being able to clear himself ul¬ timately. Thia is the text of hia let^ ter of reaignation:
"Bellmore, N. Y... October 21, 1918.
"The inveatigation of my conduct in office has, according to the pablic print, assumed a serious stage.
"Under the circumstances, until I have an opportunity to clear myself, I feel that my presence on the Town Board will affect my usefulness and be embarrassing to my colleagues. I al¬ so feel tbat a justice of the peace sbould be above suspicion ao long as be preaidea on the bench.
"I therefore tender herewith my resignation as justice of tbe peace for the Town of Hempstead, to take effect immediately. Respectfully,
CORODON NORTON."
Judge Norton's present term would bave expired at tfae end of the year, but last spring he was re-elected for another four-year term, which begins the 1st of next January.

According to Miller, he had g^one to Freeport earlier in tbe evening on an errand, riding a bicycle, and was on his way back to Merrick about ten o'clock, when, at the concrete bridge, on Grand Ave. seven men leaped on him from the shadows and before Mil¬ ler had time to realize the situation he was struck on the ° skull with a heavy jagged club inflicting a deep Tbe footpads, frightened per-

The Counsellor said that the matter was a very serious one for the Board to take ap. The first thing to be ascertained was if the man referred to had paid the town moneys required bylaw; if he has the town has not suffered; if he has not the town can go for his bondsmen. As to the atate law proviaion, the town board had no jurisdiction. Aa to the more-serious aspect, he did not know what to say off hand. The Grand Jury was in session, ai*^d he understood that they were considering tbe matter. If malfeasance was charged and proven the town board had no jurisdiction. He stated that for malfeasance a Jostice of the Peace could be removed only by action of the Supreme' Court. We shouW suspend judgment until we ascertain the facta.

Thia is the text of hia let^ ter of reaignation: "Bellmore, N. Y... October 21, 1918. "The inveatigation of my conduct in office has, according to the pablic print, assumed a serious stage. "Under the circumstances, until I have an opportunity to clear myself, I feel that my presence on the Town Board will affect my usefulness and be embarrassing to my colleagues. I al¬ so feel tbat a justice of the peace sbould be above suspicion ao long as be preaidea on the bench. "I therefore tender herewith my resignation as justice of tbe peace for the Town of Hempstead, to take effect immediately. Respectfully, CORODON NORTON."
