NORWICH TOWN ~# Funeral Services of Miss Mary Gra- ham—Rev: Dr. Howe Revews Her Eventful Life of 106 Years. [ The funeral of Miss Mary Graham was held at the Sheltering Arms at 2.30 o'clock on Tuesday afternoon. Dr. 8. H. Howe conducted the service. Aft- er reading the scripture selections, he said: There is not one present, I imagine, who has before stood at the close of g0 long a life. By a margin of three years our friends escaped live ing in three centuries. There was the most wonderful pro- cession of human events during her life, 'When a child of 12 years in the north of Ireland she heard the news of the battle of Waterloo. She was 6 years older than Gladstone, Tennyson or Lincoln. She lived through the £olden age of Byron, Wordsworth and Shelley. There were wonderful inventions and great progress in the arts and sclences. ‘When she was born our nation was but a few states on the Atlantic coast, a forest west of the Alleghanies; Fulton had not sailed up the Hudson; Jeffer- son wag president. ‘When she was born there was no #uch institution as this in America. Not a single hospital. There has heen a wonderful development of philan- thropy in this one lifetime. She was one who observed the laws of health, and so was able to with- stand the ills of old age. We do hom- and honor to a life libe this. She age was able to meet the responsibilities of middle life, to withstand the infirm- ity of later life, to pass beyond, and to glve a good account of herself through She drew the affection and interest of those about her to herself. We innst believe that a nobler life is before her Prayer followed.

In Case of Goudrea Adm. vs. the Connecticut Company —Injunction Case Settled—No Appeal in Allyn vs. Anddiasdscs' ot the Tesiraiory rack unl WL Miner Case. After being engaged practically all of Tuesday with hearing the testi- mony in the case of Mary Goudreau, admx., vs. the Connecticut company, a suit for $5,000 for the death. of Al- phonse Goudreau June 29, 1909, Judge Reed ted a non-suit after the plaintiff had rested the case, and court went out for the day soon after three o'clock. It was claimed that Mr. Goudreau was on his way to work in the Bliss- ville mill on June 29, and was going up the rallroad track, using a narrow footpath on the railroad bridge. The Connecticut company operates electric cars over this portion of the steam road and Mr, Goudreau was on the bridge when he saw an electric ap- proaching, It was claimed that the motorman wae signalled to stop, but did not, and the man was struck and knocked off the bridge into the river, a drop of 25 feet, and he was dead when found. Mrs. Goudreau was the first witness, and she testified that her husband was In good health and earned $1.50 a day in the Blissville mill. He leaves three children. They were married in 1885 and he was 52 years of age. A son, Ernest Goudreau, corroborated his mother’s, testimony. Civil Engineer S. B, Palmer showed and explained photographs taken where Mr. Goudreau was killed, stat- ing that the bridge is 284 feet long, and that there was two feet of water in the river at the time, There is a clear view of the bridge for 900 feet and the ties are 14 inches apart. He said there were small platforms on certain plers. He was cross ex- amined at length. Joseph P. Cummings, employed by Undertaker C. A. Gager, ., testi- fled to finding the body about 25 feet south of the bridge. The only mark found was a deep cut extending from the right eye to the ear. The late medical exam$er, Dr. G. R. Harris, examined the body. Irving G. Palmer, of Plainfield, & carpenter, testified that he was on the car which struck Mr. Goudreau, oc- cupying a second seat. He saw the man when the car was 200 feet away. The man was on the bridge and start- ed to run toward the car and held up his hand as a signal. He stepped to one side and was struck and fell in- to the river. The car was going 20 to 25 miles an hour, and the brakes were applied as the car went upon the bridge. C. B, Potter gave similar testimony as did Attorney Telley B. Babcock. He felt the brakes applied three seconds before the man was hit on°the west end of the bridge. At- torney Babcock got a boat and secured the man’s body and towed it ashore. He believed he was dead at that time. It was testied to by John Mellor, J. G. Robertson, W. A. Tharston and C. S. Bennett that a car can be stop- ped in 300 feet. W. W. Sheldon testi- fled the brakes were applied after the car got upon the bridge. ‘This completed the testimony for the plaintiff, and Attorney Perkins rested. Attorney Kenealy for the de- fendant company moved for a non- suit. This motion was argued by the attorneys. At the completion of the rguments Judge Reed granted the ion. It is understood: that the case of > 3 necticut. verdict. and the case of Howie, admx., ve. the New England Navigation com- pany, in which a verdict of $4,000 was and the - judge decided he the verdict and order a new trial on damages unless all but $1,000 was remitted, will be taken to the supreme court. : On_Monday: the, injunction case of the New Haven road vs. the city of New London was settled, after a meet. ing of counsel interested. Corporation Counsel Brennan of New London on Tuesday said regarding the settlement that the railroad company will with- draw its suit. The city agrees to pro- tect railroad property while the sewer being buiit. The railroad company is held free from all damages on ac-| count of any negligence on the part of the city. The railroad company by entering into this agreement does not admit that Maple avenue, where it.crosses the railroad, is not a high- way. O The railroad company will-not ad- mit that Maple avenue Is a public highway, while Mr. Brennan’s conten- tion is that it .is such and has been for s0 many years that there is no record of any previous claim to its being rallroad property. There is a record of the deeding of the street to the city, but this is ancient and its terms do not deflne the boundaries plainiy. New London city officials see in the injunction an attempt to establish the ownership of the crossing at Maple avenue by the railroad. ‘The case of Susan Elliot vs. the city of New London, a suit for $1,000 for injuries received from a fall, has been settled. Mrs. Elllott has ried since the suit was brought. The case of Mintz vs. Foote hag gone off teh list for re- assignment. ‘The case of Mrs. Mary Allyn against Alton T. Miner, executor, was amicably settled Monday, when an understand- ing was reacehd. The plaintiff was given :ludgnent in the superior court a short time ago, from which the de- fendant announced his intention of ap-d ing. The suit was brought by the plaintiff to recover payment for ser- vices rendered' George W. Comstock, whose estate Mr. Miner was made ex- ecutor of. This morning the case of Samuel “Norman vs. Gray will come before the court. This is a suit for forgclosure of a mortgage, which it is understood the defendant claims has been paid. i 1 DIVISION OF DIOCESE IS NOT ADVOCATED. Following a Debate Only One Vote ividing Present Episcopal Members of the Brooks club of Trinity church, New Haven, after a discussion, Monday night, voted that it would be for the best interests of the Episcopal church in this state, to keep the present diocese intact. Only one voice favored a division of the diocese. The question debated was as fol- Jows: “That it is’ for the best inter- ests of the church in Connecticut that the diocese be divided.” Those who spoke on the question were Rev. Mr. Miller, for the afirma- tive, Arthur C. Graves for the nega- tive; Judge A. Heaton Robertson for the affirmative and Rev. C. 8. Scoville for the negative. Various members present made a few remarks, following Mr. Scoville, after which the judges, David Dag- gett, William B. Fitch and Arthur W. Earle, went into executlve session. After due consideration they announc- ed that from the arguments advanced they had come to the conclusion that for the spiritual duties it would be ‘better to have two bishops than one, and from the executive side of the ar- gument one head would be better. A, Heaton Robertsen then moved that a vote be taken among the members of the club on the matter and all but one voted in the negative. CHARITABLE CIRCLE, K. D.
