IN BLUE AND BLACK THREE DIFFERENT PRICES AND QUALITIES 1.50 A YARD At the regular meeting of the Wes- terly town council, Monday, the claim of Mrs. Susan A. Vose, widow of Hor- ace Vose, for damage to her, properties | in Railroad avenue, by reaon of rad- ical change of grade, was heard, At- torney Samuel H. Davis representing Mrs, Vose. The members of the coun- cil took a view of the premises just prior to the hearing accompanied by Town Solicitor Agard and Attorney Davis. Mrs, Mabel Vose Chapman, daugh- ter of the claimant, was the only wit- | ness. She testified as to the neglected condition of the highway since the work was commenced last October. It was temporarily abandoned many times, to the detriment of the use and to the general disfigurement of the property. She told of the damage sus- talned by the overflow of water caused Dby the change in grade, of the neces- sity of building retaining walls in front of the residence propérty and along the driveway to what is known as the small barn, of the steep grade to the big barn, of the damage to the | trees, and of the depreviation of the value of the properties by reason of the change. Mrs. Chap; placed as a low estimate of damage from 33,000 to $4,000. A memorandum made by her father, Horace Vose, who died De- cember 20, -last, was read and Mrs. Chapman added that her father esti- mated the damage at $5,000 and would have sued the town for that amount, which she did not consider to be ex- cessive. Personally, she was at a loss of about $30¢ by damage to dahlia roots that werd stored in the basement of the big barn and were spoiled by the flooding with surface water, caused by the chapge in grade. Mr, Davis quoted legal authorities to show that alleged improvement of | the highway in front of the properties did not enter into the matter of com- pensation for damases. He asked fa- vorable consideration by the council and hoped the matter would be ami- cably adjusted and without recourse to_the eourts. The councilmen retired for deliber- ation and on their return announced that they had fixed the damage to the Vose property at $1,300. Mrs. Chap- man said that would not be acceptable, Mr, Davis gave notice of appeal from the decision of the council. Tree Warden Edward Gavitt asked for an additional appropriation of $100 for the purpose of completing the work of trimming the trees in the public | streets and told of the work aceom- plished in that line. The money was appropriated and the efficiency of the tree warden was pralsed by President Culley and,_Clerk Whipple, Mr. Gavitt said that with the co- operation of the street committee and the street light committee, better light- ing service could be had, provided | lights were chcanged so as to better conform with_the changed condition of the trees. Mr. Gavitt said that Ar- thur M. Cottrell desired to remove, at his own expense, a tree that stood di- rectly in front of the entrance to his residence in Elm street, which could be done without marring the beauty of the surroundings as there were other trees in close proximity. M Gavitt was told that such matiers are entirely with the tree warden, Wnho must first give public hearing on the proposed removal of trees.

Councilman Flynn presented the agreement made between the commit- tee and Mr. Wood, the lessee of the Pproperty, for a term of five years. Councilman Thomas said that agree- ment “was not worth the paper it was written upon. Councilman Flynn said the agree- ment was drawn by the town solicitor, who perbaps knew the value of the agreement as did the councilman from Watch Hill. Town Solicitor Agard said the agree- ment would answer the purpose and was the best that could be made un- der the conditions. One on the outside of the rail that encloses the town council asked a question as to whether the Westerly Automatic Telephone company had the legal right to charge a double toll for service within the town. The franchise was examined” and no reference is made to toll rates, and It was sug- fested that rates or changes in rates were governed by the charter and gen- eral law. It was found in the fran- chise, however, that the telephone com- pany was to furnish free a burglar alarm in Dixon square and telephones in the firehouse and town hall, whica are now being paid for. It was stated that all the town of Westerly received from the telephone company was a tax on real estate amounting to $4.50 a year. A communication was received from the Westerly Light and Power com- pany stating their intention to intro- duce the nitrogen lamp in the street lighting system, which would glve im- proved light and without additional cost to the town. The agreement calls for 32 dandle power lamps, but. the company furnished 40 candle power in- stead, and the new lamp will be of 60 candle power. It is the purpose of the company- to give the town the benefit of improvements in street lighting. The Moose home, recently incor- porated, petitioned for a club license at No. 69 Main street.
