WILLIAMS. in forty years, though he has been a commissioner for but eleven vears. | Commissioner Williams was appoint- | ed in_ August, 1900, during Governor | Lounsbury’s term, Mr. William, grow- | ing reminiscent Friday, recalied the | strenuous opposition to his appoint- | ment made by a_ prominent politician of this county. This politician was of much influence and his might have had great weight but for the fact that he had offended the gov- ernor. The politician had referred to Governor Lounsbury as “the long- haired governor. The remark came to the governor's ears and he forever had an intense dislike for the poliitcian in question. F.William Thus Steps out of Public Office for the . First Time in Forty Years—On County Board Thirty- | was opposition | In the forty years in the public ser- vice Mr. Williams has always been a faithful and capable official. He was a native of Ledyard where he was born September 7, 1841. When the war broke out he was among the first to enlist, but his health prevented him from going to the front. He took up farming and made a success of it. He was a man of unusual ability and this was soon recognized and he was elect- ed to. numerous offices, to which he always gave faithful and conscientious service. In the town of Stonington, held many offices and for ten years, 1890 to 1899, he was selectman, being first selectmian during five of the vears. He was always interested in the educational affairs of the town and was chairman of the board that He was chosen to fill the vacancy on the board of county commissioners, caused by the death of John T. Batty, and the next legislature re-elected him and he served two full terms in addi- tion to the portion of a term. He has been chairman of the board most of the time he has been a member and always careful, wise and jud cious in the spending of the coun tunds and was ever looking out for its interests. He nas always been interested in the industriai_growth of his town, having Dbeen president of the company which | erected the Rossie velvet mill and se- cured that flourishing industry for the: town, He is also interested in the Ninigret mili and nas stood ready al- ways to give industrial life in Mystic 4 boost. He was active in securing the charter for the Groton & Ston- | ington Street Railway Co., and was elected vice president of the road. He has aiways "been a successful { farmer and at one time was a large turkey raiser. -having a flock of 100 at times. All these town and county interests re given his careful at- tention, but he was none the less in- terested in church affairs, for since 1866 he has been a member of the First Congregational church of Stoningtor. He has been ireasurer of the society for vears and for a long period has been deacon and Sunday school super- intendent. A successful farmer and business man, his influence on the board of county commissioners could not help have weight, and it has been time and | again remarked that Governor Louns- | bury made no mistake when hg select- | ea B. ¥.

Mr. Lamb has decided that he has been getting up before 5 o'clock in the morning long enough, and today he gives up his business to enjoy the re- mainder of-his life unhampered by the worries of business. It was only Thursday that he had an offer to sell his stand, but he replied that it could not be bought, and on Friday he an- nounced that he intended to give the| business and the entire equipment of | the stand to his faihtful clerk, Miss Isabella .

Being a carpenter, he was employed there by the Hartford Car companr, but returned to Norwich when the boiler of the factory blew up. He was INTERESTING CAREER OF FAMOUS NORWICH SOLDIER Life of Col. John Durkee Came to a Close While He Was in the Midst of Activity. IFew knew of the prominence of Col, John Durkee, a Norwich Indian fighter and revolutionary officer, although he was a most prominent figure during lifetime which closed when he s in the midst of his active career. Amos A. Browning has made a careful search of records for facts connected with his life and under the title of A Forgotten Son of Liberty, read a paper upon him before the New Lon- don County Historical society of New London Thursday. That such a well- known man should drop so complete out of history and remembrance is ex- plained by the fact that lack of des scendants failed to keep his name be- fore the people. Mr. Browning told of the life of Col. John Durkee, a famous figure in the stamp act perfod. [For a long time Mr. Browning has been gathering the data for this paper and it showed the result of careful study. The military career of Colonel Dur- kee, he said, began with his enlist- ment in 1756 for service against Can- ada, and in May he was made second lieutenant of the Fourth company, Second regiment. He was appointed for ten years a pattern maker, after|major of the Third regiment in 1758. which for a period of ears he con- | e mustered a company here and ducted an ice cream parlor, confec-|jsined General Amherst's command tionery store and toy shop in Main|and was in the expedition which took street.

He has been the only holder of the lease in the present station. He has always been as regular as the sun, being at the station before the boat train in the morning, and he is . widely known among the traveling public and rail- road men, who will regret his retire- ment.
