NORWICH BULLETIN, TUESDAY, DECEMBER 17, 1912 IS RED CROSS WORKER IN GREECE Madame Coromilas, Wife of Greek Minister, Who was Mar- - -ried in This City, is Aiding the Countrymen of Her Hus- ‘band—Has Organized Red Cross Society in Greece. Tae part that one American woman is playing in the war in Turkey is prominently pictured in a Boston pa- per ugh her organization of a Red z:cu ety in Greece, - She is Mad- e Coromilas, wife. of the Greek minjster to Washington, who before h:lli' was u;l:lua Atlm?1 Cmdllk- whose m: age to her dis- auuflfoi-humnd took place in this eity July 6, 1910 at the home of her sister, 3rs. “Hdson F.. Gallaudet. .- Of the part played by Madame Coromilas, it is said: The one ‘American of old American stock whe has played any part of im- portance in the Balkan war » a wo- man, and 'she, although she hasn't fired a shot or; perhaps, heard one, has done as much for one of the nations among the allies as if she were a gen®ral, at the least. She is Madame Coromilas, wife of the Greek minister to Washington, and she has organized a Red Cross so- clety In .the land of her husband's birth, and that at a time when one Red Cross branch is worth a brigade of soldiery. Her name was Anna Cockrell when Greece, four years ago, sent a real minister to the United States—Lam- bros A. Coromilas, a tall, slender, ex- tremely distinguished-looking. 50-year- old bachelor, with a gray beard and @ gallant gray mustache. e was quite an important person- age from the diplomatic standpoint, | beofll‘u he was the first man-size minister Greece ever accredited to this country., Before his time the mighty republic of the west, although it had long maintained a legation at Athens, had to be content with fractional en- voys from Greece, gentlemen of diplo- matic position who spared us a por- tion of their time while they were run- ning some other errands for their lit- tle land with the large past. Minister Coromilas, with the ele- gance and distinction of a French noble of the old regime, had the appear- ance of high breeding in every line of his features and figure; and he had all the tact that ever found its way to Washington. His very first expres- sion of opinion was that the Ameri- | can woman was.such a dream of love- | liness that he 'was sstill in a daze of delight. He has been in it virtually ever since, for he soon set the daugh- ter of the former senator from Mis- sourf. He had already.gone admir- ingly beyond his first impressions. “T never saw a greater resemblance between the women of any two races than exists between Americans and the women of the pre-Hellenic period | of Greece.” When he met Miss Cockrell he ex- claimed, as one does who finds a treasure he has sought throughout his whole life: “There is a woman who is more love- ly than any Phidias ever carved.” —————— e NORWICH MEN IN LIST OF OFFICERS.

TWO BOYS INJURED BY SAME AUTOMIBILE. Alfred Hedin and Armand Hurteau in Serious Condition at Willimantic. . (Special, to The Bulletin.) Wiliimantic, Dec. 16.—Two young boys lie in St. Joseph’s hospital in a serious ‘condition-as the result of be- ing struck by the same automobile within .a- space of five minutes this afternoon about 4 o'clock. Clinton C. Rood.of 1 Windham street, a chauffeur of the Jordan Auto company, was re- turning from ‘the railroad station and as:-he was driving up Main street Al- fred, Hedin, aged 10, son of Mr. and Mrs. Albert Hedin, of No. 4 Oak| street, who was behind a wagon, it was said, stepped out from the rear, in’ ‘front:"of the Loomer opera house, and was run over by the automobile, and as:a result of being thrown to the granite pavement sustained severe in- Juries. - J. B. Fullerton chanced along, picked the lad up and Rood backed up the , machine. The boy was placed therein 'and the auto was driven up Main street, down Bank to Valley and through Valley at a fast rate of speed to get to the hospital quickly, and as the machine was about to pass Center street. Armand Hurteau, aged 14, son of Mr. and Mrs. Clement Hurteau, of 115 Walnut street, who was riding a bicyele, rode into Valley street from Center just in time to:be struck by the swiftly moving auto.. The bicycle Was smashed to pieces and the hoy thrown ‘a ' censiderable distance. It ‘was seen that he was injured and he was helped into the car, so with Rood driving.and Mr. Fullerton looking out for.the two injured boys, the machine went to St. Joseph's hospital, where an examination showed that the Hedin boy had sustained three fractured ribs, concussion of the brain and contusions of the back and possible internal in- juries. ‘The Hurteau boy suffered a broken left leg, concussion of the brain-and bruises about the back and face. The latter is reported to be the most serfously injured, but both were said-to be in a eritical condition late MORE ARRESTS TO FOLLOW IN STONINGTON | Investigations by Authoritiss Have Re- vealed Facts That Will Warrant | Further Action. The recent revelations of wholesale misconduct by well known ressidents of Mystic and Stonington with young girls of those villages is likely to cause more arrests within a day or two. Investigations by the prosecut- | ing officers of Mystic and Stonington have revealed, it is stated, facts that will warrant the apprehension of one or more prominent residents and this it is stated, will occur Tueesday or Wednesday. The persons who will be taken into custody will ber esidents of Stonington. Because of the vigorous and thor- ough investigation by the authorities | and by State Policeman Edward Downing, everybody who has knowl- edge of the assaults is keeping silent, but evidence of the same startling na- ture that resulted from the Chute and | Parks arrests, it is said, has been ob- tained and on this information the ar- rests will be made. It is also stated that a well known resident of Mystic who is mixed up in | the assaults has disappeared from the | village with the probableintention of | remaining away until the.cases have | been disposed of and the matter ended. | .
