The speaker sald he recognized that the present was an age of unrest, but he 1enuncilted two principles which if fol- | lowed, he said, would go a long way towards sclving the problems that confront us. They were these: In the sight of God I will neyer wrong a man iand I will never stand idly by end see an wronged. If every other man could be imbued with these two principles the problem of the age would be golved. | We should wake up to the fact that there is in | our possesgion today the vital princi- {Ples which can reform the world and | make it easy for the common man, who in the majority, {o live.

BREWER SUCCEEDS CHARLES BARD In Presidency of Norwich Savings So- ciety—Three New Trustees to Fill Vacancies. At the annual meeting of the trus- tees of the Norwich Savings socie held on Saturday morning at the bank- ing house, Arthur H. Brewer, first vice president of the society, was elected its | president, succeeding Charles Bard in {that office. Mr. Bard has been presi- dent since 1901. In_connection with the resignation of Mr. Bard the trustees passed the following resolution unanimously: { Office of the Norwich Savings Society, Norwich, Conn., June 21. 1913. At the annual meeting of the board of trustees of the Norwich Savings | society, held this day, Mr. Charles | Bard, having announced his intention to be no longer a candidate for the presidency of the Norwich Savings so- clety, this board of trustees desires to i place upon permanent record the rol- | lowing minute: Mr. Bard s by many years the dean of this board, having been elected a | trustee on_the nineteenth day of June, 1854 - and is the only survivor of the board as it was then constituted. He was electeq a director June 18, 1888 {and president February 5, 1901. Dur- ing all of this time he has given to this society his best efforts and has seen it grow from three million to over seventeen million dollars of deposits, and has been a prominent factor in its i development and prosperity. . In b |iness his judgment was always recog- | nized as clear and disinterested. While he did not seek responsibility, neither did he evade {t, but gave the best his | capacity afforded at all times, without | fear and with best intentions. Unswerving in_his integrity, loyal to his convictions, fair minded, steadfast lin his conclusions, always frank and | outspoken, saying just what he thought {doing what he believed to be right. {and vet withal great hearted, kind and | courteous, his friendships and help to | struggling men and institutions were | many, and alwavs cheerfully given. In {opinions conservative, in judgment de- {1iberate. he has always been consid- lerate of others. His attachments were sincere ang lasting, and his oppositions when considered necessary, were firm and consistent. No good ‘cause failed | to attract his attention and svmpathy or appealed to him in vain for relief. In the fullness of his davs, ripe in vears and experience, esteemed by many whose lives he has brightened by kindly counsal and generous benefac- tion, as he retires from active connec- tion’ with this board, we congratulate him on his honorable record and wish { for him a restful and happy old age.

In order that the new interest and new money come in (this also includes the people of Norwich) this money must be conserved in 'manner and form about as follows: 1. We must have the assurance of the court and the bank commission ers of the state of Connecticut that the present charter must be saved to the new interests. 2. That in order to facilitate and hasten the ability to pay out funds as rapidly as possible to the deposito and safely conserve the new capital, the restraining order must be in man- ner and form effective so that from time to time the money as It accumu- lates can be paid out by permission of the bank commissioners, same being endorsed on the back of certificates which will be given to the depositors on the surrendering of their books at the banking house. 3. It must be understood that the present stockholders will surrender their stock to the mew plan with the understanding that after the deposit- ors have been satisfied and paid, any remaining assets shall be distributed to the old stockholders pro rata to their holdings, less the expense which would be a proper charge for the ad- ministering of the affairs of the old depositors and stockholders.

My Dear Sir: Replyln~ to your let- ter ‘of the 20th inst, permit me to first express in bebalf of the members of the Board of Trade and the people of Norwich their sincere apprecfation of the spirit of disinterested loyalty that prompts you ta ‘propose this plan and with your friends pledge so liberal a portion of the funds necessary to carry it through. The plan as pro- posed would undoubtedly safeguard the depositors against the necessarily heavy expgnse of a receivership and assure them a more prompt return of their funds. 1 thipk when your plan is thorough- 1y ‘understood by the citizens of Nor- wich a spirit of loyalty to the welfare of the city will prompt them 1 ru- spond liberally to efforts which will Dbe made for the four days of the com- ing week, Monday, Tuesday, Wednes- day and Thursday, by a suitable com- mittee representing the Board of Trade to obtain the funds necessary to carry through the plan that you propose. cxert every possible effort to {nterest the investing public of Norwich and any others who have the welfare of the city at heart. Yours very truly, JAMES C. MACPHERSON President Norwich Board of Trade. DROWNED IN LAKE AT MOHEGAN PARK. Francis P. Condon of Greeneville Loses His Lifs When Taken With Cramp. Probably taken with cramp, Francis P. Condon, the 18 year old son of Jéhn E. Condon, of No. 9 Fourth street, was drowned Sunday afternoon about four oclock in the lake at Mohggan park. He was in swimming where there were about 75 or 100 boys at the same time and his disappearance was not at first noticed, although a boy on the bank who was watching the Condon youth' clothes tried to tell the others in the water and on thé raft that something was thé matter as he had seen young Condon go down and he had not come up again. Two boys on the raft also tried to make the crowd undepstand what was the matter, but not much After some time some of the boys dove without success, and then a boy named Frank Cook went and told Park Super- intendent John Duff that a boy was drowned in the lake, The superintendent from a boat dragged for the body and after locat- ing it a boy named Otto Levitskv dove down and brought it to the surface. It was found in about 12 feet of water at a short distance from the raft. This was about an hour after the accident. The body was taken ashore and after Medical Examiner Dr. R,*W. Kimball had viewed it, it was removed by Un- dertaker Gager and later taken to the home of his parents, whose sudden sor~ row brought forth expressions of sym- pathy from their many friends.

Murphy's store loving and on Maln street and was a dutiful_son and brother and a young man of exemplary character. He is survived by his parents, a sister, Mar- ret M., and & brether, John E.
