Whereupon, it is said, a debate ensued, the select- man informing his opponent that if | the snow was cleared away, the Con- necticut company should bear the e | pense. as it would be to the benefit of the trolley company to have the work done. The honors in the squabble, it said, were carried off by Sclectman Johnson and locai patrons of the trolley company who have endured the service in silence, and also others i who have “told the world” of their troubles, are jubilant because the Con- | necticut company stands a chance of making up to thé patrons of the inconvenicnce of the months Mrs. Matilda May Mrs. Matilda M died yesterday morning at ahout o'clock her bome on Pine street.
