Borough to Have Abundant lce. There will not be an ice famine in Danielson this summer. This fear, of some weeks’ duration, was set definite- Iy at rest by an announcement formu- lated by the Consumers’ Ice company and appearing elsewhere in The Bul- letin this morning. This concern secured several thom- sand tons of fine ice from the Hygeia Teservoir, a part of the borough's wi- ter supply system near East Killing- ly, last winter and its big houses there are filled about to capacity. President Timothy E. Hopkins of the company said Wednesday that some time since options on this ice, in bulk, had been given by the Con- sumers” Ice company to dealers who were prepared to close a contract for it for delivery at city points, Since it had become apparent that there would otherwise be an ice shortage in Danielson this summer Mr, Hopkins has sought to have his ice company re- leased from the options it had given on its stored supply and states that these negotiations have about been concluded. In any event Mr. Hopkins now makes it known that he will re- sérve the ice for delivery in Danielson and if the options given camnot be disposed of in any other manner, he will fulfil the obligations assumed with the out-of-town buyers by shipping them ice in carload lots from morthern points, This arrangement will assure to Dan- ielson all the ice they will need. Shells on Center Street. What looks like a fine idea to a great many people was given a start toward development Wednesday mbrn- ing, when scores of barrels of oyster and quahaug shells were distributed over a section of Center street, one of the most traveled in the boroush. The shells were furnished by W. A. Whipple, who has about enough on hand to cover the entire length of the short street, Persons famillar with roads sur- faced with shells of this kind in shore towns know how fine they are to travel over after the shells are properly crushed. The crushing was partly taken care of in Center street by the traffic Wednesday morning immediate- Iy after the shells were thickly dis- tributed over the street, but the town's GE FAMINE K DANIELSON After May 31st, 1915, we will be prepared to furnish Ice to residents of the Borough of Danielson at their addresses, if application is filed at our office.

End of a Useful Life of 84 Years— Prominent Citizen in Business, Re- gious and Borough Affairs, William H, Chollar died at his home on Broad street Wednesday afternoon at 1 oclock. Mr. Chollar had been in poor health for several years and for some time past his condifion had heen 8o critical as almost to preclude, on account of his advanced age, hope for his recovery. He had not been down town_since the first Monday in Octo- ber last, when he cast a ballot in the town election. Mr, Chollar was one of the most distinguished of the borough’s citizens. He was a native of Killingly, horn April 13, 1831, and had spent his long and exemplary life within fts confines, always ,interested in its welfare and advancement and for many years, in different capacities, serving it with ail the ability and distinction that was gharacteristic of him and his wite in ife. Mr, Chollar received a common school education, with a vear of study at West Killingly academy. In 183, he entered the service of Joseph D, Bates, as clerk in a country store, and from 1851 to 1865 he was with the Danielson Manufacturing company as clerk and accountant. During the lat- ter year Mr. Chollar entered into part- nership with the Quinebaug company and continued with them in the m: cantile business until April, 1875, and in Ocotber of that year was chosen treasurer of the Windham County Savings bank, of which he was also a trustee for many years. He resizned the office of treasurer of the institu- tion in 1376 to re-enter marcantile life, and continued in business until Janu- ary, 1887, He was chosen, about this time, a director of the First National bank of Killingly, an institution that has since been abeorbed. Later he became vice president of this bank and oresi dent of the Windham County Savings bank. A number of town offices were held, at different times, by Mr. Chollar. He was elected a member of the legisia- ture from Killingly for the session of 1863 and served as a member of the joint standing committee on finance. In 1881 Mr. Chollar was elected warden of the borough of Danielsonville, us it was then called. Mr, Chollar was a member of the Westfleld Congregational church of Danfelson from 1855, and in connection with that membership made one of the most remarkable records of at- tendance that can be accredited to any man in New England. For 40 years Mr. Chollar never missed a commu- nion service and did not fafl to at- tend the church every Sunday for 50 years. Mr. Chollar had been a dea- con of the church since 1862 and was almost universally addressed as Dea- con Chollar by his friends and ac- quaintances. He was clerk and treas- urer of the Westfleld Ecclesiastical soclety for over 80 years On November 29, 1855, Mr. Chollar married Mary R. Danielson. daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. Willard Dan- felson. Mrs. Chollar died in_191: Mr, Chollar leaves two daughters Mrs. Sarah Brewster Chollar Howland, wife of Rev. John Howland, who wth Mrs. Howland, has been engagad in missionary work in Mexico, with head- quarters at Guadalajara, since a few months after their marriage, in 1832, and Miss Marion Danielson Chol member of the faculty of Killingly high school.
