A0 WESTERLY TAX PAYERS ATTEND Business Transacted at Special Town Meeting by Two Score Citizens—Election Messages Read by State Returning Board—Probate Court Business—Efforts Renewed to Get Evening Accommodation Train. It is evident that the com- - v of the town of Westerly is in the judgment of the town Imen in the matter of recom- datien for public improvements. »re were but 17 taxpayers, two over required quorum, present, when e time arrived for calling to order | i special financial town meeeting. his number was increased to 40 be- the meting adpourned. All was ny from start to finish, and the mmendations of the town council ereunanimously adopted. Moderator Eugene B. Pendleton call- ed the meeting to osder and Clerk Whipple read the official call and the | ¢ propositions to h were as follows Wil ion for widening of Raflroad for widening and paying the roadbed at the junction of Rafircad | wue and 1 strest; for com- | a drain and catch basin from f n street, and for bridge and a por- be considered, opriation to the regular ation Wil the town authorize the wrer to hire such sum or a8 may be necessary ppropriations made at Councilman Albert H.

Mr. Langworthy offered a vote appropriating 38,000 for the purposes specified, and same was adopted. Before -adoption, Milo Clarke asked if the committee had any estimate of the cost of extending the pavement for the full length of Broad street. Mr Langworthy replied thae no such esti- mate had been obtained. The second proposition, an additional appronriation, was then taken up. Clerk Whipple presented a vote that an dditional appropriation of $1,300 be made. He explained that it was not an addition to the new town hall but an addition to the ular appropriation was inadequate as had been made annually for the past ears. 1e explained that the res- ippropriation was inadequates as as planned to take advantage of a long term of insuremtce on the new town hall, and also to take advantage of the builder’s insurance now in force. There would be also additional janitor expenses and other details. He said ent fnsurance was for $40,000. He favored an increase to $66,000 and for a term of five years. Joseph T. Murphy offered an amend- ment to the motion of Clerk Whipple that the insurance on the building be divided as equally as posstble amons the nine local insurance agents. He sald taxpayers should all have a share in the town's business and that no favorite hould be played. Moderator Pendleton ruled Mr. Mur- phy's’ amendment out of order, as ft was not germane to the call for the eeting, which simply asked for ap dditional appropriation Mr. Murphy submitted, but sald that e believed the taxpayers had the right to determine how their money was to expended. Clerk Whipple said he was in full accord with the sentiment of Mr. Mur- phy. At present about all the insur- anece on town property was held by one agent, and he believed there should be equal division to representatives of mtandard and reliable companies, that were u‘r'erhlp (h the town council. Ira B. Crandall suggested that the insurance be taken with mutual com- anies, as # would be a saving of one-, n cost to the town. g he vote appropriating $1.200 was carried unanimously. The motlon ng the town treasurer to hire the money required to comply with the vote adopted was carrfed, and the meeting adjourned.

Voting was very steady, without marked rush except at noon hour. A noticeable feature was the use of the circle at the top of the ballots.

The supreme court of Rhode Island has handed down e de- cision, opinion being given by Judge Vincent, as follows: “We think, upon a careful considera- tion of the several matters set forth in these complaints or brought to our at- tention during _the hearing, that the conduct of Mr. Lizotte has been such as clearly demonstrate his unfltness for that trust and confidence which is the first and pehaps the most import- ant element in the transaction of a lo- gal business. It is therefore our con- clusion that Mr. Lizotte ghould be dis- barred, and an order to that effect will Dbe_entered accordingly. Mr. Lizotte and Mr. Crafts for some years had occupled the same suite of offices, and although mot at any time actually together as general partners, they had had frequent busi- ness relations. After a time their re- lations became strained It is appar- dt_the filing of these complaints by Mr. Crafts was one of the fruits of this ill-feeling. At a regular session of the Westerly probate court, Judge Edwara M. Burke presiding, Tuesday afternoon, Mrs. Isabella Archie was appointed admin- istratrix of the estate of her late hus- band, Willam G. Archie. Bond was fixed at $3,000, and James E. Kennedy, Edward G. Cundall and Everett B. Whipple were appointed as appraisers. Charles P. Cottrell was appointsd administrator of the estate of Harriet M. Cottrell. Bond, $6,000 As the bond was that of husband to pay the debts and legacies, mo appraisers were re- quired. Albertus, Henry and J. Irving Max- son, residuary legatees and executors of the estate of Johnathan Maxson, filed releases to themselves ‘as execu- tors. The releases were received and ordered filed with the estate of Jona- than Maxson. A petition was received from John W _Berry, setting forth thal his sister, Julia W. Berry, was of unsound mind and incapable of maneging her affirs. Ho requested that the court appoint him or some other suitable person as guardian of Miss Berry.

Even his death in 1898, just before the victory at Santiago, which ended the Spanish war, could not ef- fage the memory of the man, and in that memory Hes the great influence which he exerbad and still exerts over Springfleld. Rev. Dr. Buckingham was born in Lebanon, Conn., in 1812, He entered Yale college when he was 17, and graduated in 1838, after which he spent three more years in Yale divinity school. His first pastorate was the Seoond Congregational church at Mill- bury. In the same month he married Harrlet, daughter of Rev. Dr. Nathan- fel W. Taylor of Yale divinity school. His first call to the South church in field was lssued in 1842, but he deciineg and did not take up the pas- r.ent.e hers until 1847, when a second Mrs. Buckingbam died in 1551. *Tntil 1885 he laborad alone and magnificently for the Lord in the min- istry at the South church. Then, due to his fafling heaith, which never was strong, an assistant pastor, Re G. Belden, was called. It was nine years later that the venerable Rev. D Buckingham retired from .the active ministry as pastor emeritus of the church, taking with him the love and esteem of thousands of Springfield cit- izens, whose lives he had touched in his kindly Christian way. In 1898, when his death came he had been con- nected with South church as pastor and pastor emeritus for a little over 51 years. The morning service in memory of Rev. Dr. Buckingham's 100th birthday was a beautiful one. Sunday Rockville —Court Snipsic has issued nvitations for fts 25th anniversary, which will be observed in town hall Thursday evening, Nov. 24. were he living. At the morning serv- ice the hymns were the favorites of Dr. Buckingbam. The sermon preach- ed by Rev. Dr. Philip 8. Moxom, the present pastor, was of the good that can be accomplished by personal in- fluence. In the afternoon at the ves per service, Rev. Arthur H.

Because of the wide differ ence of opinion as to the actual mean- Ing of the law, Secretary MacVeagh will submit the proposed regulations of the treasury department interpret- ing the law to the president for ap- proval.
