PURCHASES COON PROPERTIES IN JEFFERSON COUNTY •The Dairymen's League Co-opera tive Association, Inc., has purchased ftye milk plants in villages surround irfe Watartown from iE. W- Coon, of Philadelphia, Pa., maker and ship- per of cheese. The Coon 'chain of plants include stations at Brownville, CJaumont, Rpsiere, Cape Vincent, Clayton and Lafargeville with several cheese fac tpries in .the surrounding teiTito^y. Most of t'-io iplants' have been pur- chased by Mr. Coon from the Borden interests during the past five years. While Mr. Coon's business has been cheese making primarily, he ha> at times shipped to the N, w York fluid, market during 'the flush season. For that reason he .has nf-ic^icaly required, that the farmers selling milk to him meet the ;- retirements of the New York bpqrd -nmmmm of health. Purchase of five of the Cpon •plants will give the Co-operative or- ganization a flow of milk a,mpunfing to thousands of gallons (Jaily irpm one of the biggest producing -Sec- tions of the great north country nrilk shed.

Y (Continued from Page 1) Stokes refusal.to maVry.Barrington. The girl's liking for Harrington w^nedf- Sfcv parents had advised hev to have nothing to do with him. H a was constantly urging her. to mwrrry him citing the fact that he had a farm- and « home to. tak« her to. He swore th,at he was madly in love with her 'and that she must be his. He even threatened her, according to the facts ascertained by Coroner Bartholemew. The girl was appar- ently afraid of late, fearing that Ba,rrinigton would do something rash, and she confided this'to several of her girl' friends atf the institution. Harrington appeared at the hospit al Saturday morning\ shortly after 11 o'clock. He and Miss Stokes went for a walk about the grounds. He left his car standing next, to the mortuary near the west side of the laundry building. When they jetuwied several girl friends saw Harrington gesticulat- ing and urging with Mfes Stokes. •1\ was pliin he, was angry and des- perate. What was said between the two is not known, but it, is believed that Barrington threatened to kill the girl unless she married h,hn. Returns Suitors Presents. Miss Stokes left him to go to luncheon. While eating she confided to Miss Brownell, a student nurse, that she was afraid of Barrington ' arid as she was about to give him back various presents he had given her, she wanted Miss Bro\raell to. accompany her. She went to her roon and.secured a camera, a traveling bag, a piet- uie of Barrington and a diamond which he had given her during their courtship . The two girls then walk ed, out of the building and to the spot where Barrington in his car was awaiting. •Miss Stokes banded Barrington the articles and he placed them in the Sh«-then said, \Good-by - and urned' away from him with Miss Browne 11. At the moment when the two girls were about ten feet from the machine. Barrington lifted a shot gun he had drawn from under the front seat, aimed it al Miss Stokes and pulled the trigger. The weapon was a single barrel affair and the charge made a large wound in the back of the girls head. .Bullet Strikes Companion One bullet lodged^'in the thigh i.f Miss BrowneH's left leg. • fcs Stokes crumbled to the grpund.- Evidently satisfied that he had ac- complished his deed. Barrington threw his car ii to high speed and drove madly down the roadway\ on the hospital grounds. The car van- ished between the trees. Miss Brownell was unnerved by the sudden tragedy but she managed to scream foi- help. Hospital attend ants doctors and nurses hurried from the buildings. Patrolman John King member of the hospital police force secured an automobile and started in the-direction in which Bar rington's | machine disappeared. Miss Stokes was carried into the operating room and given first aid treatment under the expert direction of one of the physicians. She re- mained unconscious and died in ~ 20 minute*. The wound in her head was somewhat low, near the neck. Miss BrowneH's injury was neglig- ible. , Find Car in Lajke Patrolman King had not gone more than 80 rods when emerging from the trees that flanked the hps pital roadway he beheld Barrington's automobile in the Middle of the' ar- tificial lake which is situated near the baseball diamond. No person ?c the hospital had heard a shot b,u$ after King secured assistance a,nd an investigation was made. Bar- rington's body was found lying in the car. He had evidently placed another shell in the shotgun, leaned it against the dashboard of the car and pulled the trigger. The car had swerved f torn the roadway, across the grass and leaped into the water, halting only when the water stopped the -«n lg<ine. v The discharge from the shotgun had blown off 'almost all of Barring ton's head, killing him instantly. District Attorney WWi am **• * n \ gram and Coroner Bartholemew v/ei-e. immediately., notified > aijd i ' ha.st- ened to the hospital.* The^bpdy'l* of Barrington was i ,brought' li ash'pre b}' two attendants who waded into the miniature pool. It was removed to the hospital morgue. On th,e body of Barrington was found a note addressed to his aunt, which Coroner Karthplemw said he did not believe should be published f*fi<J f *$* he W4 sjwwed. that iBar ri^tw W«« insane. In fl>« letter, ^cfioydjnK tP the 'Cproner,, Parting- ton stated, that he -was .4na.flly in- fatuated with Miss Stokes, tfoat he had tried to make a good home for Jier and th.at she h,ad \tur'ned him down.\ He wrote that he had made up his mind a week ago to end it all. • Coroner Bartholemew rendered a verdict of imurdei- and suicide by an insane man. Barringtonhad never been an inmate of any asylum. He served during the world war over- spas and was wep known in Wrath rop. flesidents of that village stat ed that they Fad never noticed any thing peculiar about him- They were acquainted with his courtship and knew the young people were engaged- Miss Stokes was highly regarded ip school circles - and by friends in •Potsdam generaU^. She is survived by her parents and one brother,, Clifford of Central Square, 'who grad uated last spring form tie Brasher High School. !>*•> Notice Pursuant to an Order p| Hon, Alric R.
