Cmged,,to ll It is understood thét in cennection with the establishment of the Brad- ford Dnmc association at Niantic, ‘the ice department, through its channel,~ will be petitioned to h-nt the name of the village from | Niantie to Bradford ahd the New York, | New Haven & Hartford railroad com- pany will be asked to make a like h-u- in name of railread -station. 'he proposition is not whelly a mat- | t-' of sentiment and courtesy to the | assecjation, but the principal reason | the change is that there are two | ntécs within thirey mlles of each | other, the one in Rhede Islund and the | other in Comnecticut. proximity | of these two Niantics has always | caused confusion which will be in-| reased when this new corporation be- gins business in Rhode Island, and re- sult in delays in mail, freight and ex- < press matter. Officeratf the company state that already- the larger part of. their mail | has gone to Niantic, Conn., first, caus- ing vexatious delays that would mean finaneial loss when the proposed plant is in operation. It is not bLelleved any opposition to the proposed change in name will develop, as there has always been trouble caused by the conflict of names. Before the name of Niantic w: the vill; was known fle, but the oldest known de: ignation of the locality was Shattuck's | Weir. Shattuck was the name of an | Indian who was associated with the | early history of the e. Here large | quantities of shad e _caught in weirs, scoops and seines, first by In- dans and afterward by settlers, The migratory specles of fish -that swam up the weirs to deposit their spawn, such' as shad and - alewives, once abounded in the Pawcatuck and were plentiful in Niantic and even beyond. The construction of dams and the es- tablishment of manufacturing indus- tries along the river put an end to the annual visit of these ediblo fish. The river at Shattuck's Weir bridge was early used as a mill privilege and prior to 1758 the first dam was built | above the bridge by Stephen Saunders and §pmuel Gardner for the operation of small sawmills. The one located on the north side of the river and owned by Mr. Garduer was destroyed by a freshet and never replaced. In 1792 the property on_hoth sides of the river at the present Niantic was held by Samuel Gardner 2d and Au- gustus Saunders, who conducted a griat mill. Afterward a small factory | was erected by Joseph Knowles for custom carding and cloth dressing. F was succeeded by his son, John Knowles, who erected the first woolen mill. the equipment being only eight Jooms. This mill was sold to William P. Armold, who, from peculiar political tastes, named the village Dorrville, a veminder of the Dorr rebellion. The mill was purned and in 1846 Mr. Ar- nold leased the property to Dr. John E. Weeden of Westerly, who purchas- ed the property in 185i. In 1857, the property was sold to Wager Weeden. In 1864 built the stone mill, now oocupied by the William Pike — A Fierce Night Alarm is the hoarse, startling cough-of a child, suddenly attacked by croup.
