The report of our grand secretary will show a substantial gain in mem- bership during the year ending Dec. 81, 1007. While the gain is not so large as in some years, yet it is very satisfactory; considering the business depression’ through which we have re- cently passed. T have visited many of the lodges and find they have at- tained excellence in the conferring of degrees. Since the new rituals were distributed in July last the lodges have become very much interested and I feel sure that next year will show large gains, the institution of the new lodge at Thompsonville on the 17th inst. making a satisfactory starter-for another year. Rebekah Lodges. The Rebekah lodges show a ~ain In membership of 195, which is very en- couraging, considering that they have made no gain and sometimes a loss for several years. As the sovereign grand lodge 15 preparing a revision of the ritual of the Rebekah degree it is my hope that this will create enthusiasm which will lead to great prosperity in this branch of the order. ‘With the in- stitution of Hazel lodge, No, 52, of New Canaan on March 30 we are agsured of a galn in membership for this year. orcas Rebekah lodge, No 49, of Danielson, failed to hold meetings’ for more than a year and failed to make reports and pay per capita tax. I therefore on May 11 took up the char- ter and effects, which are now in the grand secretary’s office. District Deputies. I have to thank my district deputies for the Interest they have shown in the order and the work they have ac- complished. The district deputy can contribute largely to the peace and harmony of the lodges under .his di- rection ‘and save the grand master a great deal of detail. Some of the dep- vtles have been instrumental in get- ting their lodges to hold district meet- ings, where all the lodges in the district meet together. This 1 believe permits of soclability and interest in the work that s conducive of a great deal of good. 1 wish that more of these meet- ings might be held. Institution of New Lodges. March 30 I instituted Hazel Rebekah lodge, No. 62, at New Canaan. The charter list contained 12 names by card and 26 for initiation. Laurel lodge, No. 82, of Stamford, very kindly con- ducted’ the initiation.

They accepted our-invitation and the grand encampment has horne part of the expense. We have disoh/rged our duties to the best of our al ity and believe that now the grand s.éretary's office is sultably furnished and credit to the order in this state. Necrology. Brother Jonathan W.

During the year, as stated elsewhere in my report, I have dedicated three 0dd Fellows' halls. -1 learned that Mo- hegap and Pequot 10dges of New Lou- don have jointly purchased a plot,of ground and are preparing to erect a building. Also, that the lodges of New Britain haye ' in contemplation the same thing and that the lodges of Bridgeport have also fn mind a bulld- ng. t and was burled March 12 the members of Stepheén Terry lodge, acting individually, pur- chased a plece of property and intend erecting a bullding thereon in the near future for the purposes of Odd Fel- lowship.

Case and Jury—Estate 17,000, In the civil superior court today the ¢hses of L. O. S. A. Cook vs. the Thames Ferry company are assigned for trial. Court did mot come in on Wednesday, as the cases assigned had been settled. On Tuesday afternoon the argu- ments in the case of Tribble vs. Glad- ding, exr, were heard and Judge Case took the papers. . The settlement of the Lee appeal from probaie involved an estate which inventoried about $17,000. The little community of Grassy Hill, in the northwestern part of the town of Lyme, has been 'interested for a long time in the wills of the late Mrs. Harrlet N. Brockway. There were two wills, one of which was accompanied by a codicil, and there was danger of a long drawn out fight over them. Richard W. Lee, who had worked on the Brockway farm for over 25 years, was the sole beneflciary under the iatest will and he appealed from pro- bate to have that will admitted in preference to the other one. Mrs. Brockway made a will in 1903, which provided that the Congrega- tional church at Grassy Hill should have the benefit of the interest on the estate. In 1904 a codicll was drawn which gave a similar Interest of a part of the estate to the use of ‘the Con- necticut Home Missionary soclety. In 1906 Mrs. Brockway drew another will which gave the entire estats to Lee, the faithful farmhand. By agreement the will drawn latest is practically sustained. for Mr. Lee receives the major portion of the es- tate, the Congregational church re- ceiving g liberal part remembrance. The church is actually better oft by the division, because its share is re- ceived outright, and by the terms of the will under which it was a benefi- clary the chureh derived only the in- terest on the money. The missionary soclety was not included in the di- vision agreed upon and receives noth- ing. Blind Fell. On Wednesday evening a blind from a second story window in Broadway fell to the sidewalk with, a crash. Luckily no one was passing at the time and no damage was done except to the blind.
