Unknown Man, Probably Tramp Weaver, Killed in Montville S oA w ine That Hit A Death came suddenly to an unknown man Sunday night about 6.30 o'clock Montville road near a curve a fort distance south of Hubbard's gate and his dead body was found it that time tossed off to the side of the road by the automobile or other fast- ;n‘ovtnx vehicle which it is supposed t him. D ‘Whether automobile or motorcyele that caused the man's death, and whose car it was, was a mystery Sunday night, as it could not be learnmed that anyone had seen the accident, and when the body was found mo machine was around towards which suspicion could be directed. Willlam Smiddy and a man named Nichols were on their way home in an automobile from Norwich to Montville when they saw the body lying on the westerly side of the road, which is the opposite side from where the trolley track is at this polnt. Stopping their machine, they got out to investigate, and several other automoblles came up about the same time and stopped. To all appearances the man seemed dead, but they thought it might be worth while to send for a doctor, so that Dr. M. E. Fox, who is medical examine for the,town, was notified. Someone also telephoned for the automobile am- h;xltr\ce to come from the Backus hos- pital. ‘When Dr. Fox arrived he pronounced the man dead, probably from a fracture of the skull. The only mark to be seen indicating an injury was a large abraded portich of his forehead over the right eye from which the skin had been scraped off. ‘When the ambulance arrived the doctor in charge thought there was a possible chance that the man might YR?JST COMPANY RECEIVER GIVEN COURT ORDERS.

Alfred Charies Hatch, a well known resident of the city, died at his home, No. 72 McKinley avenue, Saturday morning at 7.30 o'clock, following a serious illness of two weeks with kid- ney trouble. He had been in poor health for some time past and for six weeks had been confined to his home, although he was able to be about the house most of that time. Mr. Hatch was a native of Chelsea, Vt, where he was born on Oct. 13, 1839, the son of Harry W. and Henri- ‘A. CHARLES HATCH. etta Marie Austin Hatch. He came to Norwich in the year 1862 and en- tered the Eagle armory, used at that time for the manufacture of firearms. He then entered the employ of Wil- liam H. Page as a wood type trimmer and later was on the road as a trav- eling salesman for-< General W. A. Alken of the Norwich Nickel and Brass company. He was on the road about a year and a half and then he opened a branch office for the Edward Chap- pell company in the harness store con- ducted by J. E, Shaw, where Murphy & McGarry are now located. Following Mr. Shaw's death, Mr. Hatch purchased the harness and trunk business and conducted it in connection with the branch coal and wood office. Subsequently he disposed of his harness business to Willlam Bode, and he then located his office at No. 150 Main street. In 1888 he entered the Chappell company and be came a stockholder. At the time of his death he was vice president and a director of the company for the past few months had been acting as president. Mr. Hatch was raised in Somerset lodge, No. 34, A, F. and A. M, on April 5, 1876. He was elected senior steward In 1879, junior warden In 1882, senior warden in 1883, and in 1884 he was elected worshipful master. Mr, Hatch was a member of the Actual Past Masters’ assoclation and was also member of the Arcanum club, having served as its president during the four years 1902-1905, inclusive, serving longer than any other president, as it is the custom to serve in that capacity not more than two years. Mr. Hatch always took a deep ine terest in the organizations with Which he was affiliated. When he was a oung man his record for attendance at meetings was perfect for some years but of late his health had not permit- ted him to attend regularly. Mr. Hatch was united in marriage with Mary G. Crawford on June 15 1868, by Rev. R, P. Stanton, pastor of the Greeneville Congregational church. Mrs. Hatch survives him. Sympathetic and thoughtful of oth- ers, Mr. Hatch was a devoted friend .and had a very large circle of ac- Quaintances with whom he was ever held in the highest esteem.

The body was brought in the ambulance to Gager's undertaking rooms in this city. The dead man was evidently a tramp weaver, but who he was or where he came from was as much of a mystery Sunday night as the identity of the ns who are to blame for his th. From the nature of his injury, Dr. Fox said it was evident that some heavy fast-moving object had struck him, in all likelihood an automobile or possibly a motorcycle. It is believed that besides the fractured skull he has a broken hip. The man was evidently from 35 to 40 years old, of foreign parentage, pos- aibly Polish or German. He was about five feet seven or eight inches and heavily built, with face broad, cheek bones high, and eyebrows prominent. He was without beard of moustache, and had light brown hair. His clothing was of rather poor uality, but he had a black overcoat. he coat he was wearing had been made by Cooley Bros. of Westfield, Mass. In his pockets were found 40 cents in change, a weaver's pick, a tobacco box and various emall articles, as well as a pawn ticket issued on Oct. 31, 1914, for a bag and contents, on which $1 was issued. Its number was 14733 and the name Alexander & Preiss Co., with a New York address. Medical Examiner Fox said that he had seen the man walking past his house from New London towards Nor- wich during the afternoon. and he learned that he had gone past the Montville trolley station about half an hour before his dead body was found FINAL ONE IN SERIES OF BAND CONCERTS. Given at Mohegan Park With Atq tendance Estimated at 2,000. The last of the serles of municipal band concerts was given on Sunday afternoon at Mohegan park at three o'clock where Superintendent John Duffff estimated there were 2,000 peo- ple to hear the fine programme well rendered by Tubbs band with John M. Swahn directing. Most of the mu- nicipal band concerts have been given on Friday evenings on Union square but it was decided by the amusement committee of the common council to have this last one given at the park. As the afternoon turned out some fine weather there was a big crowd on hand and many private automo- biles drove to the park while the Jit- neys accounted for a good number of those who were gathered near the u}nnd at the lake to hear the mu- sic.
