ORWICH BULLETIN, FRIDAY, MARCH 6, 1914 WHAT IS INTERESTING WESTERLY Rheumatlsmand New York Possessions of Daniel J. Sully to be Sold at Auction * —Pendleton-Chambers Marriage—Probate Hearing in Appeal Case Involving Board of Trade Activities. ,~ The lares and penates of Daniel J. Sully, former cotton king and a power in Wall street, now & resident of West- erly, ard who, with Mrs. Sully, con- ducts Kennethridge at Watch Hill, are to be disposed of at public auction in New York. The disposal of his furni- ture, works of art, pictures and other belongings to the value of $250,000, which have been in storage in New Yaork since his failure in 1804, is said to have been forced by his daughter, the wife of Douglass Fairbanks, an mctor. Several large rooms at the New York auctioneer’s are fllled with goods that formerly adorned Sully’s Rhode Is- land and New York homes. Rich tap- estries, mahogany furniture, porcelains, sold and sfiver plate, rugs and objects of art testify to the former splendor in ‘which Sully lived when his fortune was ated at $50,000,000. There is a 1i- brary of 1,500 volumes, many of them editions de luxe, and among the pic- tures are some that are envied by trustees of art museums. There is a heavily inlaid poker table, with an in- teresting history, and at which games ‘were played by big firanciers and for big stakes. A large case filled with rifies attests to Sully’s love for outdoor | mport. Sully patd $7,000 for some of Signorini’s paintings, a grand piano | cost §1,150, a cabinet $2,000, and there are pricaless clolsonne and Satsuma vases, gold and silver dinner sets, lin- ens of the finest texture, and rugs suf- ficiert to supply half a dozen fashion- able homes, Miss Miidred Chambers, daughter of the late Willlam H. Chambers of Prov- dence, and Wyman S. Pendleton, son of Rev. and MMrs, Charles I. Pendleton of Youngstown, Ohio, formerly of Westerly, were married Wednesday in Providence. The Wi ng took place at the home of the de’s aunt, Mrs. John R. Tillinghast. The ceremony was | performed by Rev. Charles W. Forster, | rector of St. James' Episcopal church, and only members of the family were present. Mr. and Mrs. Pendleton will spend their honeymoon in the south, | and on their return will reside in Providence. r The new postoffice building is =up- dlied with modern vaults and safes, and in consequence the two safes thaf have been in use in the Westerly post- office are now unused and are held subject to the orders of the treasury department, to be loaned to some post- maeter where the office is located in leased quarters. One of these safes was purchased by Hugene B.. Pendle- ton when postmaster under the admin- istration of Postmaster General Mar- shall Jewell of Hartford. The safs was the personal property of Postmaster William H. Tubbs of New London, and Postmaster Pendleton was authorized o purchase the safe for $200. This is the smaller of the two safes, the larger one being furnished by the department to Postmaster Rich ten years later. The orobate appeal case of Emily Wellington Hayes from the estate of her mother and against the accounting of her brothers, executore of the will, which was commenced before Judge Stearns and a jury last Mondoy in the superior cour: for Washington cotnty, at Westerly, will occupy the entire session of the court. The other four cases that were to have been tried in ‘Westerly have been continued to the next term of ocourt. The appeal is from the probate court in North Kings- town, and It is said the total value of the estate is about $1,000,000. The real point at Issue Is whether an item of $22,000, from Mrs. Wellington to her daughter, Mrs. Hayes, was a loan or a gift. The executors -claim it was a loen and have treated it as such, de- ducting the proper proportion of that amount from Mrs. Hayes' share of the estate. Richard Benton Welling was the first witness called when the court opened last Monday, and had not concluded his testimony when court adjourned Thursday afternoon until this (Friday) morning. At the annual meeting of the Peo- pla's Mission officers for the ensuing year were elected as follows: J. Frisbie Farnsworth, president; Ethan Wilcox, Vice president; Mrs. J. F. Farnsworth, treasurer; David W. Shaw, recording secretary; Arthur E. Riley, corres- ponding secretary; George A. Ogston, superintendent; Joseph G. Herold, as- sistant superintendent; LeRoy E. Farnsworth, acting city missionary; ‘Mrs. Lena E. Richards, Miss Elizabeth P. Nichols, Alexander Smith, Mrs. Al- exander Smith, Mrs. LeRoy Farns- worth, directors. N At the regular meeting of the West erly board of trade a letter of than was received from employes of the A- wood Machine company, Stonington, the Stonington velvet mill and the American Thread company, who are regidents of Westeriy and Pawcatu in appreciation of the improved trolley car arrangements furnished by the Norwich and Westerly Traction com- pany, brought about through the ef- forts of the traffic committee of the board of trade. A petition, bearing the signatures of $1,000,000 Willing Estate— 63 regular daily passengers on the trol- ley cars between Westerly and Watch Hill, was received asking the board of trade to endeavor to have the fare re- duced from ten to five cents. Frank W. Coy, chairman of the traffic com- mittee, as of the opinion that condi- tions aid not warrant the reduction of fare as stipulated in the petition. He thought a special rate might be se- cured for specified trips for the accom- modation of workmen and school chil- dren, such as now prevails on the Gro- ton and Stonington division of the trolley system. The petition was re- ferred to the traffic committee. Frederick C.

Tuxedo is the best smoke because no better tobacco leaf grows, and no process of treating tobacco leaf equals the original “Tuxedo Process.” J We know that Tuxedo is made of the BEST tobacco—rich, mellow, perfectly aged Kentucky Burley.
