Columbus himself is seated there, and his vice admiral or first mate or some other official is consulting with him and globes and maps and instruments are Iying around in profusion. Then there’s the galley up forward where the cooking was done for 70 husky deck hands and sail furlers. and down underneath decks, where you bump your head unless you're careful, is the brig and the hospital. He was an unfortunate man who got sick in those days. There ‘were a Jot of copper utensils on board, among them a couple of big water re- ceptacles. Three score dnd ten men drink a lot of water when that's all they have and Columbus used to get it by stretching out a sail when it rained and letting it run into the big cans, There are scores of interesting things to be seen and they are all told about in an officlal guide that the guides part with for a nominal sum, but a visit during the next few days and a wandering around is the only way to get the atmosphere.

John C. Averill Made Final Visit Be- fore Retiring at Common Pleas Court Clerk. John C. Averill, who is retiring from the office of clerk of the court of common pleas of New London county, was at the capitol, Hartford, for the last time in his official capacity, on Thursday, to have his accounts audit. ed by the state controller. Mr. Aver- ill afterwards entertained at lunch at the Heubblein Deputy Seceretary of State R. J. Dwyer, Deputy Treasurer B. Frank Marsh and Deputy Comp- troller F. Clarence Bissell. Mr. Averill has had a remarkable official career, without precedent in the state.

Anderson, point first court clerkship in 1881, when he |Harold was given the position of the clerk of the superior court of New London county and the clerkship of the su- preme court for that county. His ap- pointment was made by the judges. ‘The late Chief Justice John D. Park was then head of th ejudiciry of the state. All the judges who were on the bench when Mr. Averill entered on his duties as clerfl, have died. Mr. Averill was appointed to the clerkship of the civil gide of the court of common pleas for New London county and afterwards to the clerik- ship of the criminal side. These clerk- ships gave him the unique distinction of holding four court clerkships at the same time. In-1907, after holding the clerkship of the superior court for 26 years, he resigned. Perhaps it is technically incorrect to say that he resigned, as the clerks of courts are appointed by the judges for a definite term of ane or two years. At the end of his term he notified Governor Bald- win, who became chief justice that year on the death of Chief Justice Torrance, that he did not desire to be reappointed to the clerkship of the superior court and of the supreme court of errors for the county. When he tendered his resi of the clerkship of the court of common pleas some time ago, Judge Charles B. Waller asked him to continue in the clerkship until the close of the pres- ent fiscal year, and he complied with the judge's request. To use his own words, says the Hartford Times, Mr. Averill intends to take it easy, free from official cares for the rest of his life and judging from his appearance today he is like- ly to have many years in the enjoy- ment of that delightful condition of freedom from care. the sincere hope of his friends, includ- ing his three guests at the Heublein Thursday afternoon.
