In common with the other towns and cities about the state, the re: dents of Berlin were shocked this morning on hearing of the arrest of Mrs. Amy Archer-Gilllgan of Wind- sor on the charge of murder. A rigid | investigation will be conducted by the | state and it is thought that twenty patients met death in an unmatural manner in the institution. Three former residents of this town | died at the institution, Mrs. Jane R. Heald of East Berlin, Franklin D. Jones and Fidelia Joyce. This morn- ing a search was made through the death certificates in the town clerk’s office, but no record was found of either case. It it not thought here that the persons in question met thelr death in any but a natural way, for all were known to have paid their board at the home by the week. Mrs. Heald, according to ahother source, died from a shock in 1908. She was about eighty years old at the time and was very feeble. She was placed in the institution by her nephew, E. , W. Dowd, who left shortly after her death and settled in Athol, Mass. Mr. Jones was the husband of a sister of Postmaster H. L. Porter, and his widow is residing with Mr, Porter at present. Mr. Jones died three years ago, and the cause of death wa® given - as dysentery. He was eighty-three years old. No information could be found regarding the Joyce woman.

Taxes Coming Fast. Tax Collector Charles F. Lewis re- ported this morning that the taxes are coming in faster this year than ever before. Yesterday was the first day and up to 9 o'clock this morning $5,000 had been collected. Last year in the same time $2,000 was gathered in. This time Mr. Lewis sent out the bills a week ahead, and it is evident the plan has made a hit, for most of the money has come through the mails. ¥ That C. here was c Vice-president 1916 ol f eive Class Pins. mmencement day is nearly denced this morning when James Hart of the s of the Worthington Gram- ™ chool distributed the cla pins which arrived yesterday.
