Easter Sunday, April years ago, was & day of Sorrow throughout the entire nation, for Abraham Lincoln, the great emanci- pator, lay dead in Washington, hav- ing been fatally shot while attending a performance at Ford's theatre. The news of the president’s murder came close upon the news of the surrender of Lee's arm to the northern forces and plunged the nation from great rejoicing into deep, mourning. Public byildings_everywhere were draped in black and on the day of the funeral business in geenral was suspended from 11 a. m, to 3 p, m. Bxtracts from the Bulletin files of that week follow: Monday, April 17, 1865—News of the death of Abraham Lincoln was conveyed to Major General Dix by the following despatch: War Department, ‘Washington, April 15, 1865. To Maj. Gen. Dix: Abraham Lincoln died this morning at twenty-two minutes after seven o'clock. (Signed) E. M. STANTON, Sec’y War. Fuller details of the president’s death are given in the following des- patch: 17th, ffty ‘War Department, Washington, April 15, 1865. Maj. Gen. Dix: Last evening at about 9.30 at Ford’s theatre, the president, while_sitting in his private box with Mrs_Lincoln, Mrs. Harris and Maj. Rathbun, was shot by an assassin who entered the box and approached behind the pres- ident. The assassin then leaped upon the stage, brandishing a large dagger and made his escape at the rear of the theatre. The pistol ball entered the back of the president’s head and penetrated nearly through the head. The wound is mortal. EDWIN M. STANTON, Secretary of War. Easter Sunday. The festival of Easter Sunday was observed by the Episcopal churches by their decoration with the usual Easter flowers. Owing to the terrible calamity that has befallen the nation all the churches were draped in mourning. At all the churches dis- courses were preached on the terrible event. Many private residences are draped in mourning while the flag covered with crepe hangs at half-mast wherever displayed. Tuesday, April 18, 1865—Orders were issued Monday from the state depart- ment ordering all persons subject to the orders of the secretary of state to wear crepe upon the left arm for six months, Decrease in Crime, The station house report showing the number of prisoners, lodgers, etc.. from Jan. 1 to April 1, 1865, has been handed us by Capt.

Mayor Greene's Proclamation, ‘Wednesday, April 19, 1865—Today the nation stands with sad heart and uncovered head around the grave of one whom it dearly loved: today at noon our beloved president is buried. His death is the most dastardly mur- der that has occurred in the tide of time. Let all places of business be closed from 11 a_m. to 3 p. m_Let everyone attend his respective place . of worship and participate in the sol- emn duties of the hour, and while bowing submissively to the hand of God, let everyone swear in his heart, eternal undying hate of slavery—the damned institution that has soured the south with treason. and has drenched our land with blood, has maimed and crippled thousands of herioes; has extinguished the light and joy in thousands of hearts and has now consummated its wickedness by murdering one of the noblest, wis- est and best of men, Abraham Lin- coln, ‘our cherished friend and_pres- tdent. James Lloyd Greene, Mayor. Smith and Kingston have taken the store in Uncas Hall building lately occupied by John D. Dorrance and having enlarged their business propose to keep on hand a large stock of fruits and groceries of all kinds, at wholesale. In Honor of Lincol Thursday, April 20, 1865—The fu- neral of Abraham Lincoln, late pres- ident of the United States, was held Wednesday in Washington. At all the churches in this city where ser- vices were held there were large au- diences and the deepest interest was manifested in the religious exercises. The@bells were tolled during the day and guns were fired every half hour while flags were everywhere display- ed at half mast and trimmed in black. Nearly every store in the city was closed from 11 a. m. to 3 p, m., while emblems of mourning were displayed in the windows or doorways of al- most_every building in the city. The decorations were creditable to our citizens and so, most emphatically was their conduct. Never have we seen a quieter day in Norwich, nor one when ‘the public feeling was So unanimous, A. H. Hubbard’s_pair of horses, at- tached to a large family carriage, got the better of their driver on Main street, Wednesday and ran furiously through the street, colliding with Rev. J. P.

The driver clung to the reins and suc- ceeded in quieting the horses just be- fore they reached Mr. Gulliver's res- idenice in East Chelsea. Universalist Pastor Will Leave, Rev,.R. P. Ambler of the Univer- salist ‘church, this city, has asked a dismissal, having received a call to Milford, Mass. Friday, Apr. 21, 1865.—Jacob Miller's store_uptown was handsomely draped on Wednesday. That night some scoundrel tore down all the drapery within reach. There are suspicions as to the scamp and nothing will be left undone to bring him to justice. Public_services will be held at the church in Bozrah Centre on Sunday evening at which time an address will be delivereq by B. M.

Three Thousand Acres Burned Over in the Town of Salem. Three thousand acres of forest and grassiand have been practically dam- aged by a forest fire in Salem which raged nearly two days. The fire started shortly before 10 o'clock Wednesday morning, and it was not controlled un- til Thursday night. It was thought the fire started on property owned by George Holmes. Not much attention was paid to the fire at first, but it gradually assumed a serious aspect. Wednesday night a genera] alarm was sent out by Fire Warden Charles Maloney. Fire War- den Maloney rode through the country notifying the farmers and others were notified by telephone. All day Thursday large numbers of men from the surrounding placef joined the fire fighters. The large { force of men employed at the Mitchell estate augmented the force and soon they were fighting the flames. Late was under smouldering. The control, although rain Friday wet the woods so that fur- ther danger was practically averted. Workmen’s Compensation. Three workmen's compensation agreements were filed on Friday with the clerk of the superior court, by Dr. James J. Donohue, the compensation commissioner. They were the fol- lowing: Brown Cotton Gin.

JESTRT Dys-pep-iets ST, SIGNED DEED WITHOUT KNOWING WHAT IT WAS. Judge Greene Finds That Mrs. Barrett is Not Liable For Martgage. In the case of Henry C. Lanphear of Westerly. vs. Mrs, Margaret G. Bar- rett of Stonington, which was tried this week in the superior court, Judge Gardiner Greene has handed down a decision for the defendant. Lanphear brought suit for foreclosure of an $1,- 100 mortgage on real estate in Ston- ington. In his memorandum of decision, Judge Greene says that on July 24, 1911, the defendant having title to the premises in question, mortgaged them to plaintiff for $450 to pay there- with the hmlance of purchase money due therecn. Fifty. dollars was after- ward paid on the mortgage note. On November 7, 1911, the defend- ant conveyed the premises, subject to this mortsage, to her son, Herbert Greenwood, and his wife, reserving to herself use of one of the two tene- ments in the house, and making the deed subject to_a condition for the payment to her by the grantees of $9 & month for her life. I understand that $9 was a fair rent for the other tenement which was occupied by Greenwood and his wite. reenwood, on or about Januars 21, 1913, borrowed of the Dlaintiff $700, By an agreement between Greenwood and the plaintift, of which the defend- ant was ignorant, the plaintiff releas- ed his $450 mortgage to the defendant, and gave up his $450 note and mort- gage to Greenwood; and Greenwood and his wife at the same time made their note to the plaintiff for $1,100, to cover the $400 due on the old ioan and the new loan of $700, and se- cured it by a mortgage of said to & lifo lease in favor of the defendant. This transaction left the defendant's interest in the premises unincumbered and left the plaintiff the note of $1,- 100 of Greenwood and wife, secured by & mortgage on thelr interest only in the premises.’ Later Greenwood proposed to his mother, the defendant, to convey the property to her.. She agreed and went with him and his wife to the house of one Wilcox, a real estate broker who drew up some paper, which was not shown -to her, being extremely deaf, did not understand, but supposed to be an unrestrigted conveyance to her of all the interest of Greenwood and his wife in the premises. This docu- ment, was not_delivered to her, but was_ten days later sent to the town clerk for record, and recorded. After record, it was sent or hand- ed to defendant. - When she read it, upon recefving it, she found that it made her assume the payment of $1,- 100 mortgage debt and release Green- wood and wife from all agreements in her deed to them. She had never made known of any any such agree- mentan dat once notified the plain- tiff and Wilcox that such was the case, and that she repudiated such as- sumption, release and.the deed con- taining them. Later her attorney, by letdqr 80 potified Greenwood, Who with T his wife, had left the defendant's house soon after the execution of this paper. = The plaintiff's suit is for foreclosure against defendant of this $1100 mort- gage, which she never made, assumed, or knew of, till she read the paper sent back from the town clerk. This deed imposes no obligation on defend- ant to pay the $1100 note, nor does it incumber her interest in the premises t> secure it. She is still a stranger to the transaction between plaintiff and Greenwood and wife. Plaintiff must seek a remedy agalnst them and their interest in the premises. PAY FOR MANSFIELD BUILDING COMMITTEE. Act Approved Without Dissenting Vote in the House. There were minority and majority reports from the committee in the leg- islature on the act paying the building committee for the Connecticut colony of epjleptics which reads as follows: The following sums are appropriated to be paid to the persons hereinafter named, for services and expenses of the building committee of the board of trustees of the Connecticut colony for eplleptics in preparing plans and spe- cifications and employing architects and engineers for work upon the con struction and eguipment of the Con- necticut colony for epileptice: To Zeb- ulon R. Robbins of Norwich, $1,180; to William P. Kelley of Killingly, $730; to John H. Mountain of Middletown, $300. ‘When this matter was taken from the calendar Friday Mr. Peckham of ‘Windham, of the committee on claims, who had it under consideration, the majority favoring payment, spoke in favor of the passage of the bill. He explained that the men named had faithfully served as the building com- mittee of the school at Mansfield and completed the work for less than the appropriation and ought to be paid for their services. He sald that payment Was favored by the legislature of 1913, but was vetoed by the governor. Mr. Back of Killingly said he had given the matter much of his personal consideration, as Mr. Kelley is a neighbor, and he knew of his honesty and capabilities, and he would not. ac- cept a cent from the state that was not his just due. Mr. Back sald that two years ago this matter was acted favorably upon twice, once to correct a minor error. The members of the building committee had charged $10 a day for their services, which was rea- sonable for men of their calibre. Mr. Kelley made no charge for his ex- penses, while the others did, and prop- erly, Governor Baldwin exercised his veto power on the ground that Messrs. Robbins, Kelley and Mountain _had been appointed trustees to serve with- out pay. This they did as trustees, but their subsequent appointment as building committee did not prescribe that they were to serve without pay. The committee consulted with the comptroller and the attorney gemeral, declaring that they would not serve as the committee without financial recompense, and they were advised to perform the duties of their appoint- ment and that there was no doubt but the legislature would recognize their claim as just and order its payment. Mr. Isbell of Naugatuck did not be- lieve the state should be held responsi- Dle for the payment of the claim, un- der the clrcumstances, and said it meant the establishment of a bad precedent to pay claims of this nature against the state, for service which was authorized by some state official without authority in the matter. He said Governor Baldwin would not have vetoed the legislative action to pay this claim without good and sufficient rea- son. Mr. Isbell said he could not un- derstand why men such as these would go it blind on a measure like this and then expect pay from the state. Mr, Taylor of Danbury said the du- tles of the trustees were distinct from those of the building committee, and he believed the men ousht to be paid by the state for service rendered the state. Mr. Hyde of Manchester, the house leader, stated that inasmuch as the comptroller and the attorney general had told the committeemen to go ahead with the work, and that there was no doubt as to the ultimate payment, was to his mind justification sufficient for the passage of the bill as recommended by a majority of the committee, which provided for the payment of the claim. Mr. Brooks of Torrington said the state had recelved the service and, under the conditions, the committee, which had been appointed by the leg- islature-to do the work, ought to be paid by the state. The act, as approved by the majority of the commlitee, was put upon its passage and adopted without a dis- senting vote. CASES FOR TRIAL.

The annual chowder, smoker and entertainment given by the Pinochle club wag held in St. Louis hall, on Friday evening with one of the largest attendances at a social of this kind ever given by the club. The festiwities began with the serving of one of Chef Zabriskie's famous chowders which was commented on by the members of the club as being a corker. Follow- ing the chowder the entertainment and toasts were in order. President Ter- rance Hanlon acted as toastmaster in a most capable manner and the master of ceremonies for the evening was Martin Waldron. Tte big feature of the evening was the excellently rendered concert by Livingstone’s orchestra, augumeted by several pieces of Tubbs' Military band., All numbers were admirably played and the concert opened with a march, Col. Wellington, by Reeves. The musicians deserved much credit in the rendition of a selection from Viceroy, by Herbert, one of the most classic opera pleces composed by the author and a pleco that is new in these parts.
