That there will be oppusition at the special town meeting Monday eve- ning, regarding the appropriation of $700 for concrete curbing and gutters on Washington Ridge, is the belief of many citizens of the town. While no definite assurance was given from whence the opposition would develop, neverthel many are positive that such will be the case. Those in favor of the project are at loss to explain the possibility of such a contingency, they claiming that the town is getting out of the matter more reasonable than was at first supposed.

Their plans are yet in embryonic state but when they de- velop the leaders declare there will be something for the friends of Bar- leycorn to WoOrry over. For the past few vears the tem- perance people have been exerting themselves in an effort to secure a vietory for no license and 4% have been so near to success on a few oc- casions that the liquor dealers had to work overtime to retain the bal- ance of power.

Looking Up Old Records. First Selectman Johnson #nd Town Clerk Usher have spent some time this week in Farmington investigat- ing land records in the hope of se- curing information as to the legal boundaries of the highway on the east end of Broad street. They se- cured coples of deeds for about one hundred years back and in tracing through these they believe they may get the proper location of the street lines. Acceptance of the eastern part of the street has been held up becaus of complications which developed when the property owners in- to appear before the the subject. the monu- ot gave a hway lines, office dis- were views on shown that while found in the st ion for the hi records in the town clerk's agreed.

In the old days when deeds were filed for record the prices involved in the sales were given. The books reveal the closeness of the Yankee trader of that period, the pur chaser sometimes paying $1,000.04 for title, the owner apparently Insist- Ing on getting even the pennies. Selectman Johnson is of the opinion that records in the Farmington office concerning transfers of Plainville property should he copled for use in the town clerk’s office here. The ex pense of the work which this would entail would be considerable, however, and 1t is doubtful If it will be done for some time at least. Jail Sentences Tmposed. Jail sentences were meted out yes- terday afternoon to Frank Green, John Murphy, Harry Griffin and John Cairns who were before the court on charges of intoxication. The men were arrested Thursday night by Con- stables David, Marino and Downing.
