WESTERLY MAN FOUND DEAD Alexande” Lappin, Once a Norwich Weaver, Drank Saturday Night, Rolled Down Embankment and Was Killed— Platt Family Finds Little Charity—Legacies For Lewis Family—Tuberculosis Patient Sent Back to Italy. Alexander Lappin, & weaver employ- ed in the Pawcatuck woolen mill” at Potter Hill, was found dead beside the iroad track near the Chapmen quar- not far from the place where the body of Noyes Lamphere was found ¢ JMonday. Lappin was consider- under the influence of liquor l a when last seen Saturday night, and probably did not realize that the struc- ture known as Frasers bridge over the railroad tracks had been Temoved pending the bullding of a new bridge at that point. He evidently walked over the edge of the inclinel embank- ment and then rolied down to the level of the railroad track, landing with his face and about half his head in a pool of water. He was in this condition when found Sunday morning. He was bably stunned when his head struck n the water, as there were cuts over the right eye and near the nose, on the erown of the head and on the left side of the head, evidently inflicted by con- imot with rocks as he rolled down the embankment. These cuts were clean the skull, but the skull was not ctured. Dr. J. Howard Morgan, medical ex- aminer, was notifled at 7.45 Sunday morning, viewed.the body, made inqui- ¥y and investigation, and, as no friends appeared, authorized the removal of the body by Undertaker Murphy. The medical examiner could not learn whether Lappin was married or had any near relatives. Lappin was first employed in Potter Hill about three years ago, but has Deen off and on the job several times since then, returning to Potter Hill about two months ago, where he bas worked quite steadily since then. He was addicted to drink and had been arrested several times in the past three years by the Westerly police and had been sentenced by the Third district sourt to the state farm for six months for drunkenness. This seemed to be the man's main fault, for he was a good workman and sociable. He was sbout 63 years of age. As he frequent- Iy referred to Norwich, it is thought De has relatives in that city, or ac- quaintances among employes of the Reliance Worsted company in that city, where he was formerly employed. The Platt family of Pawcatuck, con- sisting of Mrs. Platt and two daugh- ters, are In hard luck. A few weeks 2go it became necessary for the good order of the village of Pawcatuck for Selectman Stghle and _ Patrolman Nicholas to visit the Platt home. Mrs. Platt was arrested for maintaining a disorderly house. She was found gull- ty by Judge Breed in the town court of Stonington and sentenced to six months in the New London county jail. Sentence was suspended on con- aition that Mrs. Platt leave town by March 1. Since then Mrs. Platt has been trying to get a temement else- where, but without success, as she was barred when her identity was made known. Mrs. Platt was placed on probation, in the custody of Patrolman Nicholas. The term of probation having expired and as Mrs, Platt and her family were stll] in Pawcatuck, she appeared be- fore Judge Breed Saturday and asked for extension of time to leave town. The judge made the limitation April 1. Mrs. Platt seid she had decidéd to reform in her mode of living, though she received no encouragément, as she is ignored by her neighbors and for- mer friends. Her efforts to secure a tenement outside the tcwn of Stoninz- ton had been unavailing, but she hop- ed to do so during the month. Her | eldest daughter, too, reform, but she is having difficulty to secure employment. Miss Platt was given work at the Potter mill and was doing her best to keep the place when zhe was Informed that she mustleave the mill, 88 her presence was object- lonable to other emploves, Just as soon as the mill girls ascertained who the Platt girl was, & petition was cir- culated for signatures demanding that the girl be discharged or the other girls would lsave the mill, This peti- tion was presented te the superintend- ent, and Miss Platt was diseharged, the furniture business which Colonel Cook founded.

For many years BIOPLASM (Bower) has been extensively used by physi- clans in all parts of fhe world in ine treatment of many diseases. The ex- cellent results obtained have been truly marvelous.

If any one of these chemi- cal changes In the blood disturbs the blood action—the waste matter which should be changed and eliminated be- comes a dangerous poison. Then fol- ow our troubles. BIOPLASM starts at the base of the trouble—in the primary cells which have become stagnant from the slug- gish change of the worn-out tissues. When the millions of cells are renewed to normal action by BIOPLASM, trouble can no longer exist. In other words, BIOPLASM removes the obstacle and nature completes the cure.
