Burton, rector of the Church of Our Saviour, the latter .acting as chaplain of tae lodge, Mr., Yale's death, which occurred after an illness of but a few days, marks the passing of an old and high- ly respected citizen of the town. He had been a resident of Plainville for a great many years and he was held in high esteem by his fellow towns- men. He was a aative of Hamden and was born seventy-one years ago. His father, James D. Yale, was a phy- sician, He was one of the “forty- niners” and died on the way home from California where he went on the famous trip. For many years Mr. Yale worked in Sessions Clock shop in Forestvillé, He was a foreman in one of ti#® depart- ments for a long time. He worked until ‘Saturday of last week although he had not been feeling well for some time previous. After his illness de- veloped 'he failed rapidly and his death had been anticipated by the at- tending physicians. Many of his friends, however, were not aware of his illness, and his death was a big surprise and shock to them. Mr. Yale leaves a widow and one daughter, Miss Ethel Yale. Didn’t Get Square Deal. Declaring that while he has no in- tention of protesting and will abide by the decision of the town meeting, Officer Philip Marino who was ousted from his position as town patrolman, sald today that he did not believe he received a ‘‘square deal” at the session. He argued that at least fifty of the men who voted in favor of Prior's res- olution, limting the selectmen to .$200 in paying for the policing of streets, were not voters of the town. Some of them were not even naturalized citi- zens. The officer attributes his defeat in part of the Italians of the town who be believes were jealous because he was apparently getting along success- fully. He claied to know a number of them who were allowed to vote against him who have never been nat- uralized. Others are not voters and should not have been permitted to have a voice in the meeting. The constable admits that the reso- lution would have been passed with- out the voes of those not eligible to participate in the meeting anyway as the maority for a reduced appropria- | tion was over one hundred. Marino claimed the absence of a regular policeman from 'nte center has already been felt. He caled at- tention to disturbances that have tam- en pace near Centra Square in the past two days and he predicted that the selectmen will find it necessary to make some provision for policing the district. The ex-patrolman insists that he has no apologies to make for the man- ner in which he performed his duties. He says he realizes that had he per- mitted Igcal talent to create disturb- ances, arresting only strangers, he might have fared better at the hands of the voters. He would prefer, how- ever, to do his work honestly and martyrdom is what he gets as thanks. Marino proposes to take a short rest. He has had offers of work and he told a Herald man that the future is not bothering him. School Visitor's Report. As a result of Inquiries regarding the failure of the annual statement of the acting school visitor to appear in the town report, it was learned last night that First Selectman W. J. Johnson, believing that the report was a statement for the schoal board only, had falled to forward it with other “copy” to the printer to be incor- porated in the books giving an ac- count of the stewardship of the vari- ous officials. There was considerable surprise ex- pressed when voters discovered that there was nothing from the school visitor in the report. The matter was called to the attention of Rev. H. T. Walsh, who has served in that capacity for twenty-eight years, and ke advised that he had mailed the statement to the selectmen several days before the ‘“‘copy” was sent to the printer. He was in communication with Se- lectman Johnson last night over the matter. Mr. Johnson admitted that he had received the report but as the | statement was addressed to the school toard, he thought a mistake had been ade and that it was not intended for publication. The envelope was ad- dressed to the selectmen, and there was a notation to the effect that it was the acting school visitor's report. The report is alw: presented to the school board before it goes to the selectmen. Hence it Is addressed to that committee, In view of the precedent established many. years ago for incorporating the And $25.00 $25.00.
