Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court March 7, 1961 (Commonwealth v. Smith)

Spalding, J.

Under an indictment charging malicious explosion (Q-. L. c. 266, § 101) the defendant was found guilty. The explosion, which damaged several rooms on the first floor of the dwelling of Everett J. Bixby in Wo-burn, occurred about 12:45 a.m. on May 13,1957. The case comes here on a bill of exceptions, which presents for decision the correctness of several rulings of the trial judge.
