St. Johns, N. F., Jan. 8.—A revival of the building of sailing vessels Newfoundland is in propect as sult of the situation in the important fisheries industry of the colony brought about by the war. During the last ten years the export trade in fish has been carried on chiefly steamers, but most of the freighters previously available have now been re- quisitioned by the British and French admiralties for war transport pur- poses. In addition, all the steel steam- ers which hitherto iave engaged in annual hunt for seals in the Gulf of St. Lawrence in the early spring and during the remainder o the year have carried large cargoes of fish abroad have been bought by Kussia for use as ice-breakers. There will be much difficulty this year in finding enough vessels to carry Newfoundland fish to fcreign mar- kets. Moreover, so many Newfound- land mariners are now serving with the British navy that there was a shortage of men qualified to act as masters and mates. Construction of large wooden sailing vessels to supply the needs of the colony already has begun and it is expected that in the next year or two there will be a large addition to the Newfoi:dland mer- chant marine. in a re- H. P. GRISWOLD DEAD, WAS 91 YEARS OLD Guilford Man Was in Timber Busi- ness—Had Wonderful Memory. Guilford, Conn., Jan. 8.—Henry P. Griswold, the oldest man in this town and once widely known in the heavy timber business of the east, died at last midnight following an attack of the grippe. From 1870 to 1890 Mr. Griswold as the head of the Griswold Lumber company was in the heavy lumber business in Michigan, Indiana and Ohio. He also sent out of Guil- ford sixty loads of heavy timber, some of which was used in the railroad station at New Haven, the Ellis Is- land dock, the Brooklyn Bridge, and for construction along the line of the Valley road between Saybrook and Hartford. Griswold who was then a baggageman, often related how he took Frederick R. Griffing, of Guil- ford, first president of the Shore Line road, on a hand car over the line in 1862. Mr. Griswold had a good mem- ory and recalled happenings as far back as 1830, Mr. Griswold was 91 vears of age. He leaves his wife who is ill with the grippe, one son, Henry W., six grandchildren and several great grandchildren. The funeral will be held tomorrow. CHARITY BOARD MEETING.
