B ST nLs ‘onnscticut WUA £0r husineas There was a pleasant outcome Fri- day afternoon of the long struggle to Civil Engineer George E. Pitcher and his brother, Leverett T. Pitcher, found two fine rocking chairs sent to their homes with accompanying notes that explained that they were meant to be an expression from their neighbors on the street of their appreciation of the part taken by the two Pltcher broth- ers in the effort to get sidewalks there. The recipients of the gifts deeply ap- preciate this evidence of neighborly feeling, but also are greatly gratified at the way the properiy owners along the street have responded to the order of the city in putting in sidewalks and cooperated to have good walks, for those that have been laid are of uni- formly goad quality and the complet- ed work as it stands at present gives the street one of the best stretches of sidewalk in the city. Up to ghe present time, out of the twenty-six property owners on the street who have been calied upon to walks, twenty-three have either GIFTS TO THE PITCHER BROTHERS Made by Division Street Neighbors —Sent Two Rocking GulrsmApprecntonofWorkforSdewdlu—Bul'lh'ee Out of 26 Property Owners Have Not Complied With City’s Orders to Lay Sidewalks. get sidewalks of Division street when | fo {had them laid or have them contract- | ed for, leaving but three who have not complied with the order of the city to have walks of the required types lald_or arranged for by the fifteenth of June. Nearly all the walks laid have been of the cement concrete con- struction, some with smooth finish' and others with rough finish where this seemed better because of a grade that would make the smooth walk more or less slippery in winter weather. On' the easterly side of the street, the work is now proceeding in taking out ! the ledge of rock near the head of Ar-| | nold street and on that account two: sidewalks there are held up but they | will be completed as soon as the rock has been removed. | One of the latest pieces of walk to be laid was that on the northerly side; of the street on the hill at .the Oak street end. In blasting near there on Friday for other work one of the blasts blew out stronger than had been expected and some pieces of rock land- ed on the new walk and cut it as it had not thoroughly hardened, but the damage will be repaired.
