NORWICH BULLETIN, e TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 22, 1914 ~ IN AND ABOUT WESTERLY Hotels at Watch Hill Close, After Big Season—Col. Dick to Secure Columbia House as Annex for Year-round Hotel Service—Fifty-nine Cottages Still Occupied—Funeral of Domenico Santoni. respond, and, baseg on past y the average alarms will not reach twelve a year. On that basis, the sum paid for the rolling of the two motor driven apparatus would be only $120 a year, or $330 less than when horse service was necessary. The hook and ladder truck is the only horse-drawn fire apparatus in the department and by paying $10 a run for a pair of horses for that apparatus, on the basis of 12 alarms a year, there would still be a balance of $110 in favor of the proposed plan to have the three com- panies’ respond to all fire alarms. This plan would resuit in a full working force from the very start, and it is at the start of a fire that the most active work is required. There would be then increased inter- est among the volunteer firemen and with no increased expense to the tax- payers of the Westerly fire district. Chief Cottrell and his assistants are giving this matter serious considera- tion. ¥ The hotels at Watch Hill are closed after a successful season, the best ever 80 far as the hotels are concerned and with more cottages ocoupied than ever before. The hotels which usually close the first Tuesday in September, the day following Labor day, extended the season to accommodate guests, At this date a year ago twenty-one cot- tages were occupied by summer resi- dents, while at the present time & cottages are occupied and many of these will not be closed before Octo- ber 1st, and a few not for a month later. Colonel Dick, manager of the ‘Watch Hill house, is planning to keep his hotel open next season until Octo- ber 1st, and will do so if he can be guaranteed two hundreq guests. It is understood that already nearly that number have signified their desire of remaining at Watch Hill until that date, if hotel accommodations are as- sured. ‘There is a probability that Colonel Dick will have the Columbia house as an annex next season and with a view to inaugurating an all the year round hotel service at Watch HilL The Thompson mansion, which has been in course of construction for over a year. will be occupied next season. 1t ‘will probably be the best residence at Watch Hill, as well as being lo- cated on the most elevated site ‘on the crest of Sunset hill. Several mew cottages are to be built before the opening of next season and the sum- mer_population of the wealthy will be replaced by the workingmen of Wes- The present mid-summerlike weath- er has resulted in many of the cot- tagers at Pleasant View remaining longer than usual and some propose to remain at that resort until the end of next month. The same conditions prevail at Weekapaug, Quonocontaug and Charlestown beach. After a long trial and longer con- sideration of the evidence by Judge George T. Brown, of the superior court, judgment has been rendered in favor of the plaintiff in the case of James M. Pendleton, treasurer and tax col- lecmr/:f the town of Westerly, against irginia Briggs, executrix. ‘This was_an n to recover back taxes to the amount of $400.10. Town Solicitor Harry B. Agard represented the plaintiff and Attorneys Lewis E. ‘Waterman of Providence and John J. Dunn of Westerly, the defendant. The judgment sustained the action of the tax assessors in every particular pre- sented in the case. The action was brought by Treasurer Pendleton, as in all -actions for or against the town, the treasurer must be plaintiff or de- letndn.nt under the Rhode Island stat- utes. The funeral of Domenico Santori, who was crushed to death by bm run over by a granite laden car locomotive on the Batterson switch branch, Saturday morning, was held Monday with a mass of requiem in the Church of the Immaculate Con- ception, Rev. Lawrence Kellgdy offi- clating. The funeral cortege was one of the largest ever seen in Westerly. Over' two hundred men followed the floral carriages, and borne in the front Tank was an immense floral cross from the Granite Workers’ union, of which Mr. Santori was a valued member. Then came thirty-six carriages con- taining other friends and relatives of Under the present regulations of the ‘Westerly Fire district, the members of the {hme fire companies hurry to quarters when an alarm is sent in, except the ;n:mbefl ee;t af&céd?g' company, who ‘proc e box whence the alarm comes. This is by reason of the Cyclone motor- driven combination chemical and hose wagon responding to all fire alarms.
