Ferguson & Charbonnea: FRANKLIN SQUARE DOOR OF OPPORTUNITY OPEN TO CHINA.‘ Message Brought by Two Speakers at | Church Federation Meeting. | An interesting and well attended meeting was Held at the Proadway Congregational church Sunday evening | | under the auspices of the mission work | committee of the Church Federation. Rev. G. H. Ewing, pastor of the Nor- wich Town Congregational church and the committee, led the meeting. The addresses were by James | M. Clinton of Tokio and Y. S. Tsao ot | China, now a student at Harvard uni- versity. There was special music by choir of the Broadway church, and ¥. W. Coleman offered prayer. Seated on the platform with the speak ers were Rev. C. H. Bwing, Rev. F. W. Coleman, Rev. F. O. Cunningham, and Rev. B. S. Worcester, pastor of the church. Mr. Tsao was the first speak- er, and he said in part: As this meeting is held under the auspices of the mission work commit- tee, you doubtlass desire to lLear of a mission fleld.

So is it ficted for a text for| a mission plea. If we sincerely wish | the kinzdom to come “on earth it | is in heaven,” then we have the op- | portunity to aid in bringing our desire o come to pass.

Mr. Clinton_spoke of the high char- acter of the Chinese. The door of op portunity, he said, is opened now in China, and the only need is for us to step in.

Coincident with the resignation of Willis Austin as cashier of the Uncas National bank, made public following a special meeting of the directors Sai- uraay morning, at which time n vote of appresiation of Mr, Austin's ser- vices during the past four years was paseed, came the announcement of the retirement of Arthur H. Brewer from the Edward Chappell company, of which he is president and treasurer. Mr. Brewer's interest in the company is to be taken over by his three son: in-law, Willis Austin, William A. No ton and Luclug Briggs. Mr. Austin succeeded the late James H. Welles as cashier of the Uncas bank and has since nlled the position in a capab manner. To succeed Mr, Ausiln the directors elected Dwight H. Hough, who has been teller since July, 1809, Charles D. Greenman is to_enter the employ of the bank as bookkeeper. “The change in the Chappell com pany is the result of Mr. Brewer's desire to be relieved from the active management of the business with which he has been connected for the past 45 vears. He will not withdraw entirely from the company, but wili continue to occupy a desk at the of- fice. The present officers of the com- pany are as follows President and treasurer, Arthur H. Brewer; vic president, Reuben B. S. Washburn; Ww. secretary’ and assistant treasurer, A. Norton; directors, the officers and Alfred C. Hateh.

On the death of Mr. Chappell in 1891, Mr. Brewer and Mr. Chapman conducted the business until 1898,when the latter died. The corporate com- pany was then organized with Mr Brewer, Willlam A. Norton, R, B. & Washburn, Sanford A. Chapman, John T. Crary and Alfred C. Hatch. Enoch Chapman was for two or three vears in the postoffice here and entered the employ of Mr. Chappell In 1848, Through these two business connections Mr. Chapman possessed the unique distinction of having a personal acauaintance with every in- dividual in Norwich for the space of 10 to 15 ye: Mr. Brewer recollects that Mr. Chapman often told the ry of how in 1848 the people of the city went up to Greeneville in crowds to see “the Irishman,” the only one town. Mr. Chappell failed $100,000, settling wit for 30 cents on the ceived a receipt in his fortunes having sought out all his ¢ them in full, with interest at per cent., a total of over $130,000. When Mr Brewer entered the cern the business was carried on four teams, but the business flourished to such an extent that 20 or more are employed. Coz and lumber have always been hanated by the concern, which is one of the larg- est and oldest in the state. Mr. Brewer has been leading figure in the business life of the community for many vears and has met with un- usual success in his undertakings, H was for some years president of the Hopkins & Allen Arms company and was vice president of the Ponema Mills company. He is an active mem- ber of the Arcanum club and w: one of the leading spirits in its reorgan- ization. He is a member of numerous other societies, including the Norwich club. He is one of the most promi- nent Masons of the state and is pres ident of the Masonic Temple corpora tlon and the originator of the idea of building AMasonlc temple here. Though Mr. Brewer's business in- terests will be somewhat diminished by the change in the Chappeil com- pany, he will by no means retire active life. He is f t vice president of the Norwich Savings society, sen ifor director of the Thames National bank, president of the Ashiand Cotton company of Jewett ('ity, vice presi- dent of the Norwich Industri; Rall ing corperation, vice president of the Crescent Fire Arms company, secre- tar; and treasurer of the Chappell- Ely company, director of the Norwich Water Power company and of the Bard Union 1848 for over his creditors dollar.

Rummage, a Dominican from New Haven, was the preacher Sunday evening at the vespers at St. Patric church, where a congrega- tion that fiiled the body of the church heard his forceful sermon with close attention. Speaking from the parable of the householder and the vinevard, he brought home the lesson that the workers in the Lord's vinevard ought to root out the sins that would easily take a hold on their lives and replace them with the virtues that the Lol expects his children to show.
