Mr. 8mith was u man of few words and it never was learned by Iis assobfates in Kensington where he twas born. In fact, little of his carly lite is known. He came from Wallingford to Kensingion ne arly 20 vears ago when the old wheel shop moved from that towi. He was em- ployed at that plant until it went out of existence and then accepted a position in the grocery store then owned by William §. Ritchie, where he worked for several years. Of last he hadbeen employed by the American Paper ~Goods Co., where he was in charge of the tool room. He was unable to go to his duties during the last few weeks of Dhis fliness, however. His death was caused by general dehility. - He left ne relatives Mr. Smith was well known in Ken- ¢ington and was well liked. Although | he was a man who never talked a great deal, he was known for his pleasant disposition. He left no rela- tives. He was a member of the Walling- ford lodge of Odd Fellows.

In the Kensing- ton district, District 2, the first man to cast his vote was Antonio Greco and the first woman, Cora Austin. william H. Gibney, for ne\'ern! yeard first selectman and for many years an ardent worker for the re- Dublican party, acted as moderator at the voting place in the first dis- trict. Frederick L.

W. Furrey on a charge of reckjess | driving and Michael Scott and “Jo-| seph Vogel also of Bristol, were ar- | rested with him, The arrests followed | a crash which was unusual because the occupants of the automobile were not serlously injured. An automobile driven by Moquin turned the corner of Whiting and West Main streets | and swerving to the left, struck the | railroad gate and the cast Iron abut- ment and toppled it to the ground. | Deputy Sheriff Furrey who was| within a short distance of the scene, | placed Moquin under arrest and | after summoning a doctor, he filed an extra count of driving while un- der the influence of liquor against him. Moquin stated that he was un- able to se the road because of the heavy fog and thought that he was | on the right side of the road. He| received a bad cut on the mouth and had seyeral teeth loosened and Scott | réceived a slight scalp wound. 1 The crash was heard for some dis- tance and soon a large crowd had collected, The gates are about 30| feet high and in falling, they split in half. The wreckage fell away from the automobile thereby saving the occupants from probable serious in- | Juries. Maquin was released under bonds | ‘of $200 and Scott and Vogel were released on bonds of $50 each. They will be tried in the police court this week. Question on Gates Members of the Plainville -town plan commission will take steps to West Main stret crossing on the same spot as before. For a long time, the commission has been trying to have the railroad company rempve the gate and iron abutment because it encorached on the highway about three feet, They were unsuccessful but because of the crash Sunday morning when the entire structure was torn down, they will attempt to have the matter righted at once. Light Yote Being Cast A very light vote is being cast at the annual town election which is being held today. Up to 11 o'clock this morning only 240 had voted in the town and despite the efforts of both the republican and demo- cratio- town committees and their staff of workers, they were experi- encing difficulties in getting the electors to come to the polls. Ap-| pearances indicated that the vote would be light throughout the entire ay. e NOTICE The Selectmen and Town Clerk of | the Town of Plainville, will hold a| scssion for the purpose of examin- ing the qualifications of Electors, | and admitting to the Electors Oath, | those whom they shall find quali- | fied, on Saturday, October 11th, 1924, trom 9 o'clock in the fore- noon until 6 o'clock in the after- noon, and on Saturday, October 18th, 1924, from 9 o'clock in the forenoon until 8 o'clock in the eve- ning. at the office’of the Selectmer in the Town Building on Pie street.

Fuller ¥. Barnes, president of the Bristol Hospital, Inc., presided at the exercises and in his opening re- marks, told of the nced of the new building as demonstrated by the fact that patients are being turned | away from Bristol's temporary hos- pital on account of the lack of room. | He characterized the.new hospital | building as a community project to- ward which the entire community | had contributed. The ‘dedicatory prayer was dellv- | ered by Rev. Oliver T. Magnell, pas- tor of St. Joseph's church, after which the actual laying of the cor- nerstone took place, A lead box, containing varlpus papers and manuscripts of material relative to the hospital, the city of Bristol and the state, was placed in the cornerstone by President Barnes. The cement was applied to the ‘cor- nerstone by Charles T. Treadway, chairman of the committee which conducted the drive for funds from which the new building is being erected, and Judge Newell Jennings, chalrman of the building committee, After the corner stone was ce- mented into place, the dedicatory address was delivered by the Rev. Dr. L. H. Dorchester, pastor of the First Methodist church of Hartford, the first president of the Bristol hospital, who through his efforts has been made an honorary vice presi- dent of the Bristol hospital for life. “I can hardly believe my eyes,” remarked Dr. Dorchester in his opening remarks as he stated that he saw before him the realization to the fullest degree of that which he had often times dreamed about. He told how he had worked and hoped for such a building in Bristol when he was pastor of the Prospect Methodist church and he congratu- lated the city on such a building. Dr. Dorchester told briefly of the choosing of the present site for the hospital building. Several sites were presented to the committee in charge, according to Dr. Dorchester, among which was the prescnt site with the announcement that it could be purchased for $12,000. This price was put on the property by Judge Roger S. Newell, the owner. in or- der that monetary consideration might not influence the members of [the committee in the choice of a proper site. However, Judge Newell had secretly told Dr. Dorchester that it the committee decided upon his | and for a site of the proposed hos- pital building, that it would be given to the hospital free of cost. Dr. Dorchester explained how it was his great delight, after the committee had unanimously decided upon Judge Newell's land as the proper site, to be able to announce to the committee that the land would be the hospital's without cost. He paid high tribute to Judge Newell for hjs gift Dr. Dorchester praised the hos- pital directors and the people of the city for their efforts in the reat work of hospitalization since left the city. Tt was mark when leaving the city that he hoped that the people of Bristol wonld he satisfied with a small | amporary hospital but would soon have a hospital which off by o his re- not would offered larger surrounding cities Mo told of how, when the hos- proposition was first hrought up following the he the head a committee I spirited citizens, made a for of a hospita The | survey made the startling disclosure | Rristol tients in hospitals of all the time | startiing to | the formation of a hospital earpor- | which was later followed ning of a hospl- the corner of and pital war at of of: ey the need here that was supporting 10 pa- nearby cities This disclosura led ation the temporary tal at South George streets less than two years ago. Dr. Dorchester spoke of the value of the hills surrounding this city, but regarded none of the hills more valuable than the hil) on which the new hospital bullding is located. He said that he would like to name the hill “Hospital Hill." Following Dr. Dorchester's ad- dress, the exercises were concluded with the singing of the “Star Spangled Banner” under the leader- ship of Raymond W. Cook and the benediction by Rev. P. F. Wolfen- den, pastor of the Bristol Baptist church, The Boy Scouts served as guides yesterday afternoon in conducting people through the new building. They also assisted In directing traf- fle. Extra policemen were on duty to direct automobile traffic. Library Open The library will be open from until 6 o'clock on Sunday after- noons until May 1, according to an | announcement today by Librarian Charles L. Wooding. This will in- clude the reading roesm only, which heretofore has closed at an carlier | hour. 2 McCarthy Recovering Improvement 5 been noted in the condition of Edward McCasthy, brakeman on the local switcher, whose right foot was mangled on I'riday in the freight yards, when he fell under cars, which were being shifted. He has been re- ceiving treatment at the hospital since the accident and hospital at- tendants feel assured that he will recuperate rapidly as complications were avoided.

Building and Loan Meeting Arrangements for the opening of a local office and for the starting of business will be discussed at the meeting of the local building and !loan association on Thursday night. Practically the full amount of sub- scriptions has been received so that the concern is nearly ready to func- tion.

The | firemen ask that the additional men be engaged by January 1 so that the system may become operative then. If the petition {is approved tomorrow night by the city couneil, the fire department will be in« creased from 19 to 25 men, whick will not mean an exorbitant outlay for the department, which has so great a responsibility on its hands.
