AlFT OF §25,149 FOR FR. BOJNOWSKI ‘losentation Made af Banquet of Gampaign Workers Overcome with emotion so that he found difficulty in speaking, Rev. TLucyan Bojnoweki volced his appre- clation of the gift of $25,149.50 ten- dered him last night at the Burritt hotel as the proceeds of a campaign for §$26,000 for the Home for the Aged on North Burritt street, He particularly thanked Charles F. Smith, director, and F. Raymond Gilpatrie, manager of the drive, who maude it possible for the money to be collected without expense. Of the fund presented to Father Boj- nowskl, about $20,000 was in cash and the remainder in pledges. ‘When the banquet opened more than 70 were present, including lead- ing citizens of many >reeds and na- tionalities. An excellent menu was served. Then Mr. Smith rose, say- ing that ‘he campaign was unusual because no expense was {ncurred and it was going to bs unusual be. cause there were going to be no speeches, simply brief talks by him. eelf, Mr, Gilpatric and Father Boj- rowski. “I. has been a fine thing for New Britain that we have been able to raise this money under the circum- stances,” Mr. Smith said. “The Home for the Aged is non-sectarian but it is nevertheless a Catholic organization supported by that great organization and administered by it and the sisters. It is a remarkable thing that by far the larger part of the money which we obtained was contributed by non-Catholics. This is as it should he because, prior to this drive, $80,000 was contributed by people of that faith., It is a fine thing that in a city like this, with Its cosmopolitan population, enough people have ignored differences in race and religion and have remem- bered that the powers above work inevitably and eternally for the wel- fare of mankind “I'am not here to eulogize Father Bojnowskl. That is not necessary. Everyone knows him and apprecl- ates his standing in the community. “I want to take this opportunity to express to Mr. Gllpatric, my thanks for all he has done in this campalgn. His was the lion's share, It gives me pleasure to make this statement in public. He has contri- buted much more in- services than the rest in money. “We hear much sald of a Greater New Britaln. A city {s not great because of its large population, its factories, churches, schools and buildings but it is great when its citizens are possessed of the spirit of mutual tolerance, understanding and generosity such as was shown in this campalgn.' Mr. Gilpatric gave a felicitous talk directed to Father Bojnowski, Mr. Smith and others who assisted in the campaign. “When P. F. King and J. C. Loomis called me into a conference and-told me that they wanted me to manage the drive I sald I'd be glad to help if we could interest a cer- tain type of citizen,” he said, “When the name of Charles F. Smith was mentioned, I stated then and there that we could make a success of the drive if Mr. Smith's services could be secured. They were and we did. Mr. Smith has been the biggest fac- for in the undertaking. His money? Yes, but his time and energy and enthusiasm were immeasurably greater. I appreciate the opportun- ity of coming In contact with him and of knowing him so intimately, “I went to W. L. Hatch and ask- ed him to become treasurer of the campaign. He consented to accept the office and I cannot speak too highly of how he has served us “We had our worrles but they have all faded away in the succ of the drive. I want to give thanks to all who helped in any way. “I got the vislon of the need of Greatest Chain of Good Clathes Shops in America NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD FRIDAY OCTOBER 16, 1925, this home from Father Bojnowski. 1 knew others would also get the vision and that they would show thelr gratitude and appreclation of Father Bojnowskl and would coop- erate. 'They realize that his efforts have always been in the direction of better citizenship. He had gone along In his great work without as) ing you and the city of New Britain for help and I felt that everyone would want to get in and help him this time." Mr. Gilpatric then read Treasurer Hatch's statement, showing $20,. 043.50 immediately available and the remainder in pledges. When Father Bojnowski stood up to speak he was deeply affected. Recovering from his emotion he sketched the history of the Home for the Aged. He sald he had had requests from aged people for some place to live. Other parish projects came up and he was forced to post- pone action on the home decided to go ahead “I knew the people of New Brit. depend on them,” he said. ‘“You have often watched a farmer plough- ing a fleld. He cannot do his work without the plough or the horses. So, T could ot hops to succeed without the help of my friends in New Britain. I am very grateful for that help.” Father Bojnowski contrasted the campaign with his experiences when he first came to New Britain. He was unknown. During a week's campaign all over Connecticut for funds with which to build a church, he received 3100 in contributions. “But it is far uiff r .t uow,” he re- marked with a happy smile, “This is the happiest day of my life,” Father Bojnowski continued. “I was very happy on the day I was ordained a priest. But that was happiness for myself. Today I am happy for the aged people who wili find 2 home in the building you have helped me to build.

But on the fatal night in January the efr- cuit must have been closed, and the explosive went off as ‘oon as the wires touched it. At any rate, Wil- to pieces Became Very Drunk “T didn't know anything about it,” continued Turner. “That night a brother-in-law of mihe took me out to drink some white mule.

Wilson was {dentified without difficulty, and, when Turner's absence continued for several days, the other body, badly mangled, but about the right weight and measurements, was identified as his. An insurance company paid his “widow' $25,000 and his sistser §60,- 000 without protest.
