Nothing I can say at this time will express the kindly feeling the Busy Boosters’ club bears towards you the loss it will suffer in having your name erased from the roll of its mem- bers. You have been active in all various associations, so _well rep: sented here, the grange, the New Lon- don County Improvement league, Norwich Building and Loan assoc! tion and the Norwich Chamber Commerce. Emblematic of the great New London County league, we present you also a token the esteem In which you are held that organization.

The gathering broke up about 10.30 in departing all wished o'clock, and success that has crowned your labors with the Improvement and OLD SPICER STORE IN LEDYARD BURNED. — all Building, But It Had Long Been the Meeting Place of Clever Business and Cracker Barrel Orators. The old Spicer store, a Ledyard iandmark, has gonme. Christmas night fire broke out, and by rain came, at 3 o'clock Sunday morn- ing, it had been consumed by the flercely fanned flames. A few coals stil] glowed at 10.30 as the people went to the chburch some rods away, but the blizzard brought the flakes for the next three hours, and now the new- 1aid snow covers the site. Ledyard has known the store during many generations, but perhaps the most active manager to leave his name upon it was Captain Edmund Spicer, writes a Ledyard correspondent. He, at least, is remembered by the men now aging, and he turned enough money over in its walls of change to have been counted a man of wealth among his contemporaries. Tons of butter and gross after gross of eEEs bave passed toward the cake and om- elet through his hands. Some of them even cackied later. Here was lost and won the checker championship of old and new dealers. On its cracker barrels was decided the destiny of county commiesioners, and even presidents and congressmen came under unmeasured censure and cool ~ criticism, whether they ever learned of it or mot. Here was held, in the days of Elijah Bailey and Solomon Chapman, the se- cret meetings of the know-nothing party. Here they banned the immi- grant and the aifen, and planned to swallow him up. Here, too, they dls. cussed radicals and copperheads with heat and fervor. The days of swap- ping and of tobacco juice have now meandered_past. After Bailey, Chapman, Edmund and John S. Spicer, John M. Gray, William S. Gray, came the wind-up under Herbert Pierce. It had not seen commercial activity for several years and was storing warm ashes and cider when it smoked last, and yet this buflding—this _commercial emporium in the heart of Ledyard—only meas- ured 30 by 15 feet, and many who had know it all their lives hardly noticed it was gone. The local fire brigade kept the house close by and the meeting house sheds from catching fire. The building was owned by Hon.
