Dr. O'Connell purchased the | prope on which the filling sta- |tion of. Charles P. McCarthy now stands evidently with the unders standing that use of the property as a filling station would continue, McCarthy purchased the TLatham property some time ago and made plans for the erection of a new filling station there, having alrcady secured the permit for its erection. Dr. O'Connell had planned the erec- tion of a new filling station on the prokent site of the MeCarthy sta- tion. with the pump moved back from the sidewalk where it mnow stands. 32 File Remonstrance F. M. North of 396 West Main street presented a remonstrance signed by 32 property owners who reside in the vicinity., Mr. North said that there are at present seven filling stations on West Main street, out as far as Barnesdale, which he said is a great plenty. TF. H. John- |ston of 376 West Main street also volced his objection to an addi- tional filling station, saying that they are a continual annoyance to the neighborhood because of the noise of changing tires and doing |other work. Mr. Johnston sald |that he had conducted a personal investigation and has found that as many as 50 cars pass his home |every 10 minutes. He sald that )\\r!t Main street needs the careful |attention of the city of New Britain as it is one of the principal roads leading into the city. Dr. O'Connell was represented by Attorncy W. 1.

Clerk George Johnson read an opinion from the assistant corporation counsel, which stated that the man was entitled to compensation of $11.68 a week for a period of 104 weeks. The ques- tion of whether the man should be paid in weekly installments or whether the money should be given to him in a lump sum was discussed at length. In reply to a question as to what he intended to do with the money Mr. Disena sald that he proposed to invest it in a second morigage on a house owned by his brother.® The board- members, hav- ing foremost in mind the safety of the investment, finally decided to deposit the lump sum in a savings bank in trust of Clerk George John- |son and City Engineer Joseph Wil llams.
