The pole, con- sisting of a mainmast and topmast, was purchased, but as it was about to be erected an injunction was served, and the result was a wrangie as to where the pole should be erected, so it remained on a wharf off Main street where it had been landed. Finally the injunction was dissclved and the town of Westerly voted that the pole would not be placed in/ Dixon square. Then there was another wrangle, so one night a crowd of young men from Pawcatuék quietly spirited the main- mast and topmast across the river in- to - Connecticut. The committee in charge located the mainmast and had it carted back into Westerly, but the topmast was secreted and not found by the committeemen. In due time the mainmast was placed in its present location in front of the Westerly high schoo! building, and another topmast secured by subscription. In the meantime the original topmast was taken from its hiding place, and, with Mr. Halpin's' consent, was set close to- his residence. Mr. Halpin stipulated that only the American flag should be raised on the pole, and that it could not be used as a support for *amx-mgn banners of any political par- This topmast was utilized as a mainmast and a new topmast was add- ed by money contributed by residents of Pawcatuck. Ever since then it has been considered the official flag pole of the village of Pawcatuck and has served that purpose for nearly nine vears. Judge John W. Sweeney and Attor- ney Arthur B. Crafts are features in an interesting law question raised be- fore Judge George T. Brown in the superior court for Washington county t Kingston, as to the rights of s to a suit to enter into agree- of settlement without the con- gent of counsel. The question came up_ in two cases against Robert® L. Bright, brought by William N. Moore and Walter F. Moore, Attorney Frank W. Tillinghast, rep- resenting Mr. Bright, declared that > were on file in these cases agree- thents signed by, the plaintiffs for a settlement of the cases. Messrs. Swee- ney and Crafts, representing the Morses, as th attorneys, declared the agreements of settlement were without their consent, and were ob- tained under fraud. Mr. Tillinghast contended that the suits should be en- tered as settled, and Messrs. Sweeney and Crafts objected. After considera- ble argument, each side was given a week to file briefs as to whether the cases ghould be entered as settled or not.
