There was a meeting of the direc- tors of the Chelsea Savings bank on Monday, at which the contract for the erection of the new bank building on the site of the Universalist church was awarded to C. Morgan Willlams. The bids were opened at the office of Cud- worth & Woodworth, Friday, but not made known until Monday, when Mr. ‘Willlams wae found to be the lowest of the four bidders. This contract is for the barebuilding and foundation, without the marble, tile work, furnish- ings or iron work. The Boker-Torrey company of Boston will probably get the marble and tile work, which will include the floors, wainscotting and counters, while the John Willlams company,, incorporated, of New York, will probably get the bronze and iron work, which will include the doors, window frames and grills. The con- crete work will probably go to the Eastern Concrete Construction com- pany. The marble used in the stru ture, which will be one of the hand- somest in the city of Norwich, will be Taverennelli marble. Other contractors who submitted bils were Peck, McWilliams & Co., Tracy Bros, of Waterbury, and H. ‘Wales Lines company of Meriden, T! bids were close for such a large con- tract, and the structure when complet- ed and ready for occupancy, it is ex- pected, will cost about $200,000. The work of tearing down tha Uni- versalist church will be started soon, and as soon as possible the work on the foundation for the new building, ')Ilt‘.h will go about twelve feet below he surface, will be started.
