The mayor state police to assist the local in closing up the Sunday bars an their first move was the raid on Sun. day morning. Following is Mayor Brown’s statement to the council members: Mayer Brown’s Message. I wish to say a few words with re- lation to the effort which we are mak- ing to put a stop to the sale of intox- icating liquors on Sunday In this city contrary to law. Soon after the present administra- tion tcok office last June the _poli commicsioners instructeq the chief of police tc give fair warning to all liquor sellers in the city that the law would be enforced from that time forward. This warning was given by the chief of police to the dealers in question. So far as I have been able to learn there was a slight improvement in conditions for two or three weeks, but coon the matters became just as bad as they had been before. Some of the local liquor _dealers seem Getermined to defy the law and have continued their practice of Sell- ing Sunday in a& manner which has ontraged “the sense of public decercy of the great majority of the citizens of this city. The local po- lice seem to have been unable to check the evil. I accordingly a few weeks ago to their assistance the state police force and as a result of their investi- gation and the raid which they have made, one of the most notorious and obnoxious offenders has aiready been fined in the city court today, and sev- cral others of those who are charg- ed with breaking the excise law in this or some other particular have had warrants served upon them and their cases will soon be tried in the city court. The complaints which we have had of ‘these violations of the law have been many and insistent and have been made with good cause and good reason, If the situation is such that the vio- lators cannot be apprehended by the local police force I propose to use the state officers in co-operation with the local police just as far as may be nec- essary to put a stop to this nuisance. T call the matter to your attention that you may know and that all good citi- zens may know that a determined ef- fort is being made and will continue to be made to do away with the evil and with the co-operation of the state police T trust that the desired result will be obtained and Sunday selling stopped. South Street Hearing. The adjourned meeting was held for the purpose of holding a hearing on the proposed laying out of South street as a public hishway.

From what Mr. Peloquin has told me, I should say no, answered Mr. Fanning As there were no others to be heard the mayor declared the hearing closed and on motion it was adjourned until the first Monday in February. Alderman ‘W. H. Allen for the au- diting committee presented the audit of the water department for the three months ending January first and it was accepted, taking the usual course. Thames Street Widening. The special committee on the Thames street widening reported through Councilman F. L.

The four property holders with whom they were unable to make satisfactory settlement are Michael Levine, Joseph and Andrew Connor and Harris Friedman. The | report was accepted. Alderman Casper K. Bailey for the public works committee stated - that the petition of P, H. Bthier for a gas- olene pump in front of his store in Greeneville had been given their ap- proval according to the same condi- tions as heretofore. The report was accepted. Alderman Bailey also reported that the public works committee has given the petitioners leave to withdraw in regard to the accepting of CHT street extension by the city as the extension is not in proper condition and public necessity does not warrant the taking over of the extension. This report was also accepted. Will Estimate Damages. The following resolution was then edopted: Resolved, That the report of the special committee:to confer with the Thames street property owners be ac- cepted and _resolved further, that Whereas the court of common council has been unable to agree with Michael Levine, Joseph and Andrew Connor and Harris Friedman, four of the per- sons injured by such layout, altera- tions, extension, _enlargements re- specting the damage by them respec- tively sustained, the mayor proceed to appoint three judicious interested free holders of the city of Norwich to es- timate said damages as providad in the city charter. Mayor Brown said that he was not ready to announce the committee. As there was no other business to come before the meeting excepting the read- ing of the message as above, the meeting adjourned about 10.10 o'clock.

He made numerous friends among his associ- ates and-exesrted a strong influence for good among them. He was converted in 1837 during revival services the Waterford church. It {s said that because of questions _which he wished to settle for himself he did not join the church until 1841, being baptized by Rev. Francis_Darrow on June 12 of thai in preparations to secure the necessary training. He was educated at the New-~Hampton Academical and Theo- logical institute. He then returned to Waterford and taught school in the Gilead district made famous by Dr. H. Clay Trumbull’s book, The Modei Superintendent. One of the convicts of Elder Brown's gospel preachings _was Rev. Charles H. Spalding, D. D., of Mos ton, secretary of the American Bap- tist Publcation society of New Eng- fand. In 1862 the State Baptist con- vention elected Elder Brown presi- ident at the Stamford convention and for many years he was a member of the board. In 1865 the town of Plainfield chose Pastor Brown as one of its rcpresentatives In the legisia- ture, where he served ably. In' July, 1846, he supplied the pul- pit at the Charlestown, R.

In March, 1849, the unanfmous call of the Plainfield church of Moosup was accepted and here the greater work of Elder Brown and his conse- crated wife was accomplished. For nearly ten weeks the pastor preached every evening and a great revival was the result. There were more than 100 conversions and 60 members were added to the church by baptism. Elder Brown was pastor there 22 years and ended his labors only because he felt another might do greater good. Durirz his pastorate at Moosup, Fl- der Brown was called to the High Street church at Pawtucket, R. I, but the Moosup Baptists objected so strongly that Elder Brown withdrew his resignation. In 1871, his pastoral relations were severed. While pastor at Moosup, Flder Brown officiated at 501 funerals, bap- tized 213 converts and preached more than 2,000 sermons, hesides making many other addresses. He was a mem- ber of the board of education and did much to uplift the moral tone of the community. From Moosup Elder Brown returned to New London, where he supplied at the Second Baptist church for six years. Since then he has been regard- ed as a pastor-at-large. It is soubt< ful if any clergyman cver surpassed his record. People actually would not let him dest. Besides being in constant demand to officiate at fumerals, -his services were always eagerly sought in tying the nuptial knot. He has married more than 1,000 couples, at- tended more than 2,000 funerals and delivered more than 5,000 sermons. The people of New London loved El- der Brown ans when they looked into his kindly face and listened to his earnest voice they feit that he was indeed their friend in the fullest sig- nificance of the word. He was the people’s parson and they loved him for his comforting, direct and simple application of the gospel of Jesus rist. Saunders Simon Katz.
