The pa geant, held o a grassy plot surroum ©d by glant trees, wis a_protentious undertaking. Several hundred persons took part in the tableaux, the Indlan dances, the battle betweén the tribes, the capture of Miantonomoh by Uncas, ‘the death.of tHe former, and the por- trayal of the manch of historic events. The fight of the Indians was carried out with great fidelity of detall, and, even while the president looked on. the mock Uncas supposedly cut from the shoulder of his dedd enemy a piece of flesh and ate it with every evidence of flendish delight. It is his- torically related of Uncas that he aft- erand said that this was thé sweetest meat he had ever tasted and that it ‘made his heart strong. Driven to Uncas' Grave. After witnessing the pageant, the resident. Was driven to the grave of ncas fn Sdchem street, where a mon- ument_ stands to his memory as the good friend of the white man.

In the final scene the Goddess of Lib- erty, Miss Ruth Henderson, raised the United States flag to the top of the flagpole in the center of the field while all fulned in singing America.

The .famed outfit, renowned since Colonial days, lived up to its merited reputation and played a lively medley that served to put the expectant throng on edgé and in the best of humor. At the conclusion of the serenade there was a hearty round of applause. At the station to recelve the presi- dent upon the arrival of the special were Hon. Winslow Tracy Williams, president of the celebration committee, Mayor Costello Lippitt, First Selectman A. D. Lathrop, Alderman Robinson, Alderman Stetson, Edwin A.
