‘TALKED ABOUT IN WESTERLY School Board Must Have New Member to Succeed Dr. J. H. Morgan—Probable Compromise in Carpenters’ Strike— Dr. M. H. Scanlon Addresses Students on First Aid— Deacon Ethan Wilcox Honored by Baptist:Sunday School It is probable that at the next mee - Ing of the Westerly town council & member of the school committee wili be elected to succeed Dr. J. Howard Morgan, who has removed to New Jer- sey. Dr. Morgan has been a member of the committee for many years and was greatly interested in school work. Two years ago when he was up for re- nomination an effort was made to have him succeeded by Thomas Perry, but just before the caucus was called ic was decided to withdraw Mr. Perry from the contest, as there was strong public sentiment against ousting Dr. Morgan or engineering any such move- ment, especially as the doctor was ab- sent from the town. He was re-elected for three years at the June election of 1912. Soon thereafter Dr. Russell B. Smith resigned as committeeman to become medical inspector of schools, a salariea position, and the town council elected Mr. Perry to the vacancy. At ‘he election in the present month Mr. Per- ry was elected for a full term. in electing a by the town couneil, presumably like conditions will prevail in regard to a successovr of Dr. Morgan, but action will probably be deferred until the regular meeting in_July. The school committee is composed of three members and heretofore a ma- jority has been physicians, with a den- successor tist, Dr. A. H. Spicer, as chairman. The members of the present committee are Dr. Nye and Mr. Perry. The town council acted upon the recommenda- tion of the committeemen in electing their associate to succeed Dr. Smith and will probably do likewise in choos- ing a succe r to Dr. Morgan. While it known that several citi- zens, fully qualified, are willing to serve on the committee, they are not openly candidates, and are not seeck- ing the favor of the present commi:i« teemen or the town councilmen. A member of the council stated Tuesday that he considered the council compe- tent to fill the vacancy without the assistance of the school committee; but he is only one member of the ccuncil. In the retirement of Dr. Morgan Westerly schools lose the service of a highly educated man and who was in- tensely interested in school affairs. Fe was a Greek scholar and was a mem- her of a committee appointed to revise the Bible about 40 years ago. Dr. Morgan was born in Westerly Jan. 2), 1844, son of John A. Morgan, who was cashier of the Pawcatuck bank sincs its organization in in 1883 1849 until he died Dr. Morgan served with the sixth Connecticut regiment in 1862-3, and was graduated from the University Medical college, New York, in 1868, practicing in New York for a time before returning to Westerly, He was a trustee of the First school dis- irict for many yesz and when the schools were consolidated he was elect- ed a member of the school committee, from which he has retired, on of infirmities and his removal from the town to take up his residence with a daughter in New Jerse Dr. Morgan medical examiner for the First district of Rhode Island ever since the office was created and Mi- has just been succeeded by Dr. chael H. Scanlon. Dr. Morgan is brother of Charles Avery Morgan of Westerly and Mrs. John Ransford Blater of New York. No definite agreement has been reachea between the union carpenters of Westerly and the master buildess, s delay in and in consequence there the construction of buildings that were to be completed at a specified time. The argument is made that the em- ployers knew of the termination of the two years' agreement and should have given this matter due consideration when taking contracts that would ex- tend beyond the limit of the agree- ment.

Dr. Michael H. Scanlon pav. an in-. teresting and instructive address on How to Act in Hmergency Cases in the biological laboratory of the West- erly High school. He told the students just what to do in cases of near- drowning, sunstroke, poisonous bites, burns and fainting spells, and also how to bandage. The address was fully demonstrated, John Nye acting as the subject and John Ruisi as assistant surgeon. Dr. Scanlon delivered an ad- dress to the students on similar lines a year ago. on of 23 years of faith- superintendent of the First Baptist Sunday school, the church by unanimous vote elected Deacon Ethan Wilcox honorary super- intendent for life, creating the office in his honor. Mr. Wilcox declined re- election ag active superintendent and the church passed resolutions of re- spect and admiration of Mr. Wilcox and in appreciation of valuable ser- Vices rendered. Judge Edward M. Burke held the first session of the Westerly probate court in the new town hnll building Tuesday afternoon, the room assign-d for the court being the same as occu- pied by the town council. The will of David C. Chester, chief enginser in the revenue marine service, retired, and who also served in the navy, was ac- mitted to probate. Mr. Chester died in Westerly May 26, 1913, and he nom- inated as executors of his estate Char- lotte B. Blackler, a daughter, and service George Eddy Chester and Ray Eddy Chester, his sons. Thelr nomination was approved by Judge Burke.

Morgan. kugene B. Pendleton and Arthur L. Perry. His uniforms, swords, commis- sions and discharges and many other personal belongings are given to his sons, daughter and Gladys Chester Wilcox.

Since then the wife died and the granddaughter is ever 21 yea's of age. Judge John W. Sweeney presented his first and final account as adminis- trator of the estate of Emma A, Bur- dick, which showed a balance in per- sonal property of $2,720.05.
