The newspaper was dated ' a week after George Washington' death and the columns of the paper were. deuud almost entirely to. de- scribing the loss the country had sus- tained by the death of the father of his country. 'he Mr. Mahony sold to a collector of antique manuscripts six years ago in Worcester. Mr, Mahony examined the violin very closely and found the following :i" scription on the inside of the vio- In: “Joseph Guarnerius filins Andrae fi«;{itncremania Sub-Tiitulo-S-Teresie, According to the translation of this | mscrlptlon that Mr. Mahony has it reads: “Joseph Guarnerius, son of An- | drew, made the Cremona violin and | ?fifiltlfie! it to St. Teresa in the year | } Cremona is a town in the northern part of Italy famous on account of the ns that were made there from 1550 50. The Cremona violin is almost as rare as the Stradivarius, and is very | 1 on account of the wood from which | it is made, and which grows in me, vicinty of Cremona. i The varnish that is used on the Cré- mona is something that the modern violin makers cannot duplicate, and it is thonght by the manufacturers of vio- lins that this is another reason for the rich mellow tone that the Cremona gives. Mr, Mahony has been offered several large sums of money for the violin, bLnt he has always refused to part with 1 James Story of Norwich, Ct, tried the violin and offered Mr. Mahony $300 and his own violin in exchange for it. “I only mention this” said Mr. Ma- hony, “in order to show that there are people who thought that the violin was worth something. There are many other persons who have tried the violin and wanted to buy it from me, but I am not anxious to get rid of it just at present. There are many relics in the Ma- hony home that Mr. Mahony takes es- pecial pride in, one being a cow’s horn that he found one day in a Canterbury street gix years ago and took home, and his son,_ John Mahony, polished and engraved it. On the horn there are engraved the coat of arms of United States, a man of war, signifying war, the old oaken byckep, which represents peace; a ship on ocean, symbolical of commerce, and ¥ modern ten story building. which is supposed to show the great advance- ment that has been made in the build- ing line. The horn is greatly prized by Mr. Mahony on account ef the workman- ship on it and also because of the fact that his son did it all. Mr. Mahony is in his 69th year and has traveled extensively. One story that he tells and one that he says really happened to him when he was a young man is that in the year 1867 he was walking from Hall- ville, Ct., to Westerly, R. I, at about 1 o'clock in the morning, and he had lost his way and was thinking that he wounld rest for the night. when on the road a little way from him he saw a man leaning up against a rail, crying. | He was directed to a haunted house, from which he finally escaped after much trouble, and got to Westerly ear- ly in the morning tired and all of his nerves puset over the incident of the previous evening. He was told by the people of Westerly where he had been the night before, and was informed that it was a haunted house and that he was very lucky to get away the way he did. as there were many people that | had put up at that house and were nev- er seen again. This is only one of the adventures that Mr. Mahony has met with in his life. and he says that there are more quite as thrilling. Mr. Mahoney claims Norwich as his home, worked for Jesse D. Noves 25 years When he was street commis- sioner and had charge of the fire horses seven vears. Mr. Mahoney used to live in Thames and High streets, where his children were born. NORWICH TOWN Rev. E. H. Smith Writes of Voyage to China—Lloyd Case Joins His Brother in Honolulu. Rev. E. H. Smith of Huntington ave- nue, on his way back to China, writes as follows from Yokohatha, Japan: “Not until one has taken a winter trip through the tropical seas of the South Pacific can he know the poetry of ocean travel. After six days out from San Francisco the beautiful Ha- waiian {slands rise out of the blue waters, Flying fish skim the waves and occasionally a frisky shark makes a high leap out of the water as if inviting the camera to preserve his ‘beautiful form. “The day at the islands will linger in the memory of the New Englander as a dream of palms, flowers, cocoa- nuts and bananas. The views from the mountains out upon the sea and the tropical valleys will be a vision to recall all-one’s life. “Then farewell to the land of flow- ers, and ten days of sunshine and | balmy breezes onethe deck of our steamer, until Japah rises out of th ocean—and we are in the east wuh all its romance and strangeness.
