. IMPROVEMENTS IN WESTER m by Henry S. Coville, Who Returns' From Ohio‘After ~ Nearly 40 Years—James Emery Wheel—G. A. R. Native of Preston Honored. ' It was at Wequetéquock where Jo- Seph Cheeebro, the first settler of the town of Stonington, located in 164, but the place never became populous, the growth seemingly taking root in what is now the borough and in Paw- catuck. Two Rouses are now in course of comstruction in Wequetequock, one for Dr. Cyrus Mitchell and the other | for John Hurlbut, and Albertus Max- son has made substantial addition to his residence. Although the centennial anniversary of the battle of Stonington is to be celebrated in the borough on Oct. 10, 17 and 12, 1914, there is active interest in the coming event in Pawcatuck and other sections of the town, including Wequetequock, and all will unite in making the celebration a success. The state of Connecticut has appropriated the sum of $1,000 to aid in meeting the ex; . which will be paid by Comp- tFoller Dunn to Treasurer E. M. Pen- dleton just as soon as a like sum is raised from any other source for like purpose. Westerly public schos! pupils did not compete for the Jume awards in the School Arts guild, and that is a rea- | son why no local pupils are enrolled as prize winners.

He had a whistle, the sound of which exactly resembled the trolley whistle, and at eight o'clock he blew -that deceptive article with great vigor. Results followed with | lightning rapidity. From every direc- tion the pupils “beat #£” for the sta- | tion, leaving a trail of books, buttons | and hairpins in their wake, everybod sure the clocks were slow. When they raced into the station all out of Dreath and in a highly dishevelled state of body and confusion of mind, all they saw wag a brakeman disap- pearing up the line, laughing fit to kil himself—the only one who seemed to_appreciate the joke.
