Bedford, 65 Park street, ‘committed suicide - Saturday evening: Mr. Bedford was over on the street, but went home early and went to his bedroom on the second floor at the head of the stairs, undressed and ap- parently made all preparations 10 go to sleep, When found about.10.10 by his wife, who had also been over to the city 'with ‘her children ta see the moy- ing pictures, he wag Iying upon the bed with a bullet hole in his right temple. Mrs. Bedford became hysterical. Neighbors were attracted by her fren- zied cries and Dr. W. P. 8. Keating, who chanced to be making a call in the vicinity, hurried to the house. Some- one teléphoned to Dr. John Weldon and also to police headquarters. Lieutenant Daniel Killourey soon arrived and took charge until the medical examiner, Dr. Louis 1. Mason, came. Dr. Mason pro- nounced it a case of suicide and gave orders to Funeral Director Eugene Hickey to prepare the body for burial; It is believed that Mr. Bedford had been brooding over his non-appoint- ment as foreman of the dresser ten- ders' department at the American Thread company, where he had been employed for twenty-seven years. About two weeks 4go a new foreman was put in charge who had only been employed by the company three or four. vears. Mr. Bedford had not worked much during the gast fortnight. When found he was lying upon his back with Ids arms folded across his breast, the. right above the left, and it is beligved that after he had pressed the .33 calibre revolver to his- temple and fired that the arm in falliig had thpown the pistol between his legs, Where 1t was found. When Dr." Keat- Ing arrived there was but little warmth in the body and he gave it as his opin- ion that the shooting was done shortly! after 9 o'clock. Supernumerary Police- man Edward Leahy, who lives close by and toward the rear of the house, said that he was reading and, hearing: the shot, which was like a loud cap pistol, he had pulled out his watch and noted the exact time—9.12 o'clock. A Mr. Bedford was born in New York state 42.years ago and had lived in this city for some thirty years or more. He was an honorary member of Alert ose company, a'member of Williman- tic lodge, No. 120, American Benefit so- clety, and a member of the Knights of Pythias. He is survived by his jife, a son, George, and a daughter, Mar- ret,' both a dozen years old or less. here also survives a brother, Johm Bedford, of New York. = Mrs. Bedford was formerly Miss Carey and came from Norwich, it is sald. ADJOURNED TOWN MEETING. President Needs of Hospital—No Action Taken on Question of Flowage Right Saturday afternoon at 2 o'clock Mod- erator Willlam J. Sweeney called the adjourned annual town meeting to- or- der in the council chamber at 'town hall, It was voted that the reports. of the town officers be accepted on motion of Judge A. J. Bowen. On motion of E. J. Randall it was voted that a ten mill tax be laid, the same as last year. Town Treasurer Frank P. Fenton could not state whether this would be sufficient b cause of the action of the general ai sembly requiring the assessment of property at its full market value. The selectmen were given authority te bor- row, money from time to time as ma; be decmed necessary. On motion of Dr. F. E. Guild it was voted that the sum of $48,000 be ap— propriated for the support of schools for the ensuir~ year. This is an in- crease of $2,000 over last year. Am ap- propriation of $50 towards the salary of the city missionary was voted. - Dr. Weldon said that his services would be of value to the hoepital if he would certify what persons were entitled to treatment as town patients. Hospital Needs More Money. Guilford Smith offered 2 resolution appropriating $1,000 for St. Joseph's hospital for the care of persons de- pendent upon the town who are too ill for treatment at the almshouse. He said that the hospital had been losing money on the care of patients. A number of questions were asked by Al- bert Gurley in regard to the care of town patients at the hospital and he advised going slow in the matter be- cause of other large expenses. He id not intimate that the hospital was not a benefit to the city. Dr. Weldon stated that the hospital had lost $42 on care of town patients during the past year. Thirty-five of these patients had heen cared for. One of the chief reasons why the legislature had for objecting to raising the appro priation for the hospital was the fagt that the town of Windham was nbt doing more toward the support of the institution. Wants to Exchange Land. First Selectman S. Arnold Peckham explained under the next clause that Arnold Potter desired to exchange about two acres of meadow land for something like a half acre of the lard recently acquired by the city from him for cemetery purposes. This exchange would stralghten out the line on_the highway and would give the:town land in the rear. “He asked the town to give the selectmen power to act’ii accord- ance with thefr best. jud At in the matter. Mr. Peckham said it'was val- pable land and-that Mr: Potter should be made to pay handsomely. for it. Power was next given the selectmen to sell a small tract of woodland 4n the town of Coventry purchased by the town of Windham from Mr. Potter's Guilford Smith Explains |’ father in 1876. It was bought at the time the present almshouse property ‘was acquired and Mr. Potter included Jt.with the land deeded to the town. Mr. Peckham said that there was| about six and one-haif acres of wood- land on a rocky side hill. Mattor of Flowage Rights. The sale of flowage rights on prop- erty now owned by the town or which may be owned by the town by pur- chise from or. exchange with Arnold Potter to'the Windham Manufasturing company was in the next clause, Mr. Peckham suggested that the mat-— ter be passed without action. E. J. Randal'moved that no action be taken, Attorney George W. Meloney stated that the Windham Manufacturing cofmpany would have the right of con- demnation, but that the company de- sired 0o the gentlemanly thing and had beerf to the selectmen and as he had-supposed the price was $200 had been: agreed upon and he wanted to know ‘why the matter was passed. Mr. Peckham ' stated that it had at first been thought that the land damage would be trivial, but upon investigation great damage would be the result and some fifteen or twenty acres of the land purchased from Arnold Potter would be flowed over, Mr. Peckham said that he dld consent to the town accepting $200 at first, but this was be- fore the land had been examined. He thought that Selectman McCracken would agree that more than $200 of damage would be done to the land. In reply to another query from Attorney Melony, Mr. Peckham said he did not Claim that there had been any misrep- resentation in the matter. Mr. Me- Cracken said that in his opinion $200 would cover all the damage done by raising the company’s dam and flood- ing. the land, as much of it was water- soaked already. Dr. Weldon was of the opinion that the meeting should have more informa- tion before acting on the matter. He was Tiot in favor of fixing an exorbi- tant price and believed that the local industries should be treated fgirly, but that_the town should know just how much land was to be flowed over. At- torney Huber Clark said that the land at that point was of small consequence anyway and that the company had done much for the good of the com- munity. Mr. Peckham thought that at least '$300 should be the price. No Action Taken. Mr, Patter said that 3500 would be more nearly the correct figure and that he would not give $25 for the land when' overflowed and it was good meadow land, as good as any on the farm. J.-O'Sullivan said that he had seen the necessity for the company getting niore water power and that by using the company fair the community would be benefited. Jt wasyvoted to take no action by a large majority. There were some fifty voters present before adjournment was taken. Death Due to Natural Causes. Friddy evening Dr. C. E. Simonds was called. to_attend the two weeks' old child of Miss Tekla Walcak on Chapman strebt. Upon arrival at the house the child was dead and the doc- tor, learning that the child’s father had left town some days ago, thought that there was a possibility of foul play and notified Medical Examiner Louis 1. Mason, who notified Captain Richmond of the police, and both went to the house. After an investigation the examiner propounced death due to natural causes. OBITUARY. Henry Howeéy.
