Amos H. Armingten Living Over Events of Fifty Years Ago. At Gettyspurg today and tomorrow Amos H. Armington of Danielson ex- pects to spend some of his time scan- ning with eyes fifty years older than when they firstlooked on the now his- toric ground that part of the field that the eye can sweep from the Bloody Angle, where he fought on the third |day of the great struggle. Mr. Armington fought as a member of Battery A, First Rhode Island ar- {tillery, and his reminiscences of what transpired there are intensely interest- ing. The particular gun to which he was attached thundered defiance to Al- exander’s Confederate batteries on Seminary Ridge during the terrific ar- tillery duel that preceded Pickett's charge and that the men that fought with that gun were in the thick -of the awful rain of death being poured upon the Union forces by the South- ern gunners is evidenced by the fact that out of its crew of eighteen men only five escaped alive. There will net be many of Mr. Armington’s gun mates with him at Gettysburg this week—not many that are living—but those who sleep forever are not far away. The present is not Mr. Armington’s first visit to the site of the battle since the close cf the war. In other years strree then he has revisited the famous scenes and upon his return here has mentioned how vividly those scenes ‘were impressed on his memory, though in going back to Gettysburg for the first time he experienced a feeling thxt all would seem strange to him. He was amazed to find that he recog- nized his old gun position as readily as if he had seen it but a week before and as he stood and gazed toward the Conferedate positions a vivid memory picture of the inward sweep of Pick- ewt’s legiciis rose before him, morching thousands, with bayonets glittering under a bright sun, advanc- ing with the precision of parading trocps—a picture that he knows now will never fade le life lasts. No less vivid is his remembrance of how he stood there fifty years ago gazing ae if trapsfixed at Pickett’s men and of how nuthing less than the spiteful screech of a bullet close to his head brcke the Fypnotic spell that had been cast about him and brought him back to the desperate duty of dealing ont more death in the check- ing of one of the greatest charges written of in history. Close to the place where Mr, Armington fought is erected = tablet marking the farthest north ever reacked by a Confederate command urnder arms.

The selectmen of the town of Put- nam have decided to call a spectal town meeting for Monday of next week to see if the town will make an ap- propriation for the construction of an arch cement bridge over the Five Mile river where the Providence turnpike crosses the stream at a point southwest of Quadic. The bridge is to be 83 feet in length if ordered huiit. The bridge that it is desired to replace is the qne that gave way, a few weeks ago, under the weight of a big auto- moblle truck that was loaded with furniture. A new bridgge is especially needed at this point because it is on a state built highway over which much heavy travel passes. Unable to Go to Gettysburg. Loufs Lucier, father of.Jeweler F. X. Lucier, is one of the veterans of the battle of Gettysburg in this city who is disappointed in not being abie to attend the 50th anniversary reunion at the famous feld. Mr. Lucier met with a slight accident in which he injured his arm about two weeks ago. Mr.. Lucier fought at Culp’s hill at Gettysburg. He enlisted in Putnam to o to the war as a member of the Fifth Connecticut infantry, and was one of the very few men that entered the seryice at the beginning of the war and stayed to the end, his enlist- ments extending over a period of more than four years. He was twice wound- ed, but aside from this spent more days in actnal service than almost any man in theé regiment. Mr. Lucier is one of the veterans hard to get to talk talk about war ences, he prefer- ring to listen to what others have to say about it, but he was at Gettys- burg and In thick of the fighting, DECISION IN POMFRET CASE.
