’ WILLIMANTIC -OFFICE, 67 Church St. Telephene 210-2. — MISS WINSOR PENSIONED BY AMERICAN THREAD CO. Employed at Plant for 58 Years, for Over 25 at the Same Machine. It's a mighty pleasant thing to be called from one’s machine in a fac- tory into the office of the agent of ' the company and told that in appre- ciation of the fine service rendered, ! the company has decided to retire one on a pension, especially when one has worked for fifty-eight years for the concern and over a quarter of a century at the same machine. When Miss Harriet A. Winsor went to her machise Wednesday morning at the American Thread company, she had no anticipation of what was in store for her. When she received word to call at the office of Agent Austin D. Boss she did so in obedience to an order. Agent Boss, in a diplomatic manner, spoke to Miss Winsor, ask- ing about her heaith, the length of service she had given to the thread plant and about other things in gen- eral. Then he informed Miss Winsor that from now on she had no cause to worry because thq American Thread company had decided that her services at the plant had been such that she was entitled to a rest, one based upon retirement with pension. Miss Winsor has been a most de- voted employee of the plant and from now on will have no active duties to perform and she is to regularly re- celve a most generous pension from the Thread company. Miss Winsor is not the first at the plant to receive a pension but she is the first woman. The others have been men. Miss Winsor when she became a thread operative in Willi- mantic was but fourteen vears old. Today she is 72. In all that time she has not lost a day except by illness. Her record is a remarkable one. In those fifty-eight vears she has seen many changes at the thread plant. For over twenty-five years she has worked steadily at the same ma- chine. Second Day of Hampton Field Trials.

Oct. 25. — Thomas Mott Osborne, former warden of Sing Sing prison, -tonight made public an open letter tc Governor Charles S. Whitman in which he charges that the state’s executive is the chief cause of the persecution to which he has been subjected. Mr. Osborne’s reasons for the charges are given at length in inci- dents on specific dates which he claims substantiates his charges. He sums them up as follows: “First, in that you did not support me when attacked by Superintendent (of prisons) Riley, as you promised, and as it was your duty to do. “Second, in that veu did not attempt to appoint a commission to really in- vestigate Sing Sing, as you promised, and as it was your duty to do. “Third, in that vou did not exercise vour official power to discourage the attack upon a state officer in the faithful discharge of his duty, but on the occasion gave encouragement to the Westchester county officials in creating one of the most detestable scandals that has disgraced the state of New York.” Mr. Osborne states in his letter that when the governor urged him to accept the post of warden of Sing Sing he was assured that he would be left free to carry out the Mutual Welfare league ystem. T is the first of two promises he claims was broken. NEW HAVEN ROAD DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RE-ELECTED. Issue of $700,000 for Depot in New Haven Voted.
