He will await word from Washing- ton when to report before the naval inquiry board which will determine the cause of the accl®aat and the responsibility far, Qlson is a eook and was doing Risjrezilat work on board the craft’ when it sank. He has given a most vivid déscription of what happened anrd tells of the suffering the men underwent by in- halation of poisonous gas fumes, According to his story the accident happened about 2 o'clock in the aft- ernoon. The sub was going down in a crash dive but when the depth gauge showed her steadily sinking lower and lower the commander tried to right it. Then it was learned that the craft was out of commission and the crew in great danger. He tells of the bravery of the rnmm:lnd(-r C. M.

Olson tells of the terrible ef- fect the gases had upon the men.

Plans provide four rooms and a kitchen. The en- tire place will then be conducted as a rooming house. There are now rooms being used for this purpose and with the addition, a first class wooming house will be made of it. The Plainville Engineering and Sup- ply company has been awarded the contract to rebuild the place and operations will probably commence within a week. Expectations are that a month will be taken to complete the alterations. The history of the old Colonial Inn brings one back far as the year, 1825 when Deacon Roderick nley was proprietor. The building was then only about one and a half storics high. It was known famous road house for travelers at that time. The house was built when the oid canal was dug. Traces of this canal are almost gone now but some sec- tions of it can still be seen in back of the Inn and portions of it run under the building. At the death of Deacon Stanley, some 70 or more years ago, his son. Henry D. Stanley took over the place and ran it for several years. It was later sold to the late F. A. Tinker some time be- for 1869. This was before the town of Plainville was organized. Mrs. Tinker still lives and is enjoying health despite the fact that she is more than S0 yvears old. She resides on East Main reet. The Inn changed hands al times after that, and fin sold to Mrs. Martha Officer Officer conduct- ouse, later selling owners.
