P - DANIELSON @heriff P. B. Sibley Announces His Candidacy for Renomination—Dr. Marcus D. Buell to Speak at M. E. Church—Sudden Death of Oliver W. Bowen. Sheriff P. B. Sibley gave out the following statement Tuesday: To the Citizens of Windham County: 4¢3 several have announced their candidacy for the republican’ nomina- tion for sheriff of Windham county, and as possibly there may be others who aspire to that honorable position, perhaps it is only fair and best at this time for me to say that I am a candi- date for renomination. I have to a large extent enjoyed the confidence of the citizens of the coun- ty, irrespective of party, during my service as jailer for fourteen years, and during my service as sheriff for eleven years, and it seems urmheces- sary for me to make an appeal to the party to which I belong for a renomi- netibn. The management of the coun- ty affairs during these years must have been satiefactory to the taxpayers, as there is now to the credit of the coun- 1y a sunplus of over nine thousand dol- lars, There are matters of +which the gounty commissioners have the entire charge, but the management of the jall comes largely within the scope of my Gduties as sheriff, an@ it is because of the business methods adopted and the practical management of that institu- fion that the receipts from the jail have exceeded the expenses each year. In this connection I am pleased to acknowledge that the hearty co-opera- tion of the county commissioners and the efficient services of Deputy Jailer Field have contributed largely to the success at the jail. It is also true that the splendid management of all the county affairs places our county gov- ernment first among those of the state. If renmominated and elected sheriff, I shall endeavor to give to the county the best efforts of which I am capable nd a service in line with the spiendid achievement of the other departments ur county vernment.

I There was widespread expression of ‘reglel in ‘Danielson when the an- nouncement of the death of Oliver W. Bowen was made Tuesday morning. Mr, Bowen died at 10 o'clock at his home on Reynolds street. He had been 111 for about two weeks with heart trouble, but his improvement during the past few days has been encouraging as to indicate his early He was even regarded as better a few hours before his death, which was unexpected. Dr. George Burroughs was at the Bowen home, making his usual morning call, when Mr. Bowen suffered the fatal attack. He was stricken in the bathroom and when assisted to his bed his condition had become so serious that he expired in a few minutes. Oliver William Bowen was born in Foster, R. L., June 28, 1843, the son of Nelson and Olive (Green) Bowen. He came to Danielson in April. 1853. Two years later he removed with his par- ents to Wauregan, where he was edu- cated in the public schools and Plain- field academy. He was clerk and as- sistant postmaster for H, A. Atkins for five years in what is now the Waure- gan store, and was in the office of the ‘Wauregan company for one ye: In August, 1864, he left Wauregan to become clerk in the general store of Samuel Fenner at South Woodstock, where he was engaged about a He then went to Willimantic to s his father in the building of the No. 2 mill of the Willimantic Linen company. He remained there for three vears before going to Taftville to work on another mill. His father was a prominent builder. The Wauregan mills and nearly all the mills at East Killingly were erected by him. : Mr. Bowen returned to Danielson in October, 1869, and entered into the hardware and undertaking business with his father under the name of D C. Bowen & Son. He started a livery stable in Danielson in 1882, and con- tinued to conduct this branch of his business until a few years ago, when he sold to A. F. Wood, by whom it is still conducted. Mr. Bowen had been a prominent and wideawake public official in the town of Killingly for many rs and had been honored with some of the most important offices within the gift of the community. For ten years, 1888 to 1898, he was first selectman and_ clerk of the board, a deputy sheriff of Windham ocounty for twenty years, member of the 1889-1900 session of the state legisla- ture as a representative from Killing- ly, oreditably serving as chairman of the committee on manual and roll and as clerk of the committee on roads, rivers and bridges: member of the board of relief in his home town for several years: president of the Wind- ham County Asgwicultural society from 1892 to 1893 and had served on various committees having to do with matters concerning the affairs of the town. In each and every instance his ‘duties were wisely considered anad judiciously discharged Ten years ago Mr. Bowen suffered a serious illness and has since been less active in public life, although he fol- iowed current events with the closest interest. For the past few years he has been inspector of roads for the state highway commission and only a few weeks ago was named by Com- missioner J. H. Macdonald as state supervisor of road repairs for Wind- ham county. He only entered upon his duties under t appointment when he was taken recovery. i Mr. Bowen was a staunch republican always and the political honors con- ferred upon him were without excep- tion the gift of the members of that party, although many of his supporters at times were democra He was well known throughout the state.
