Committee of Greek Church Wants One Nearer Business Section. It was stated here Monday that the wlan of erecting the proposed Ortho- dox church on Water street on a site offered by the Quinebaug company has been abandoned, insofar as the use of the site is concerned. The committee in charge of the work of making ready for the erection of the church is now investigating other sites with a view to selecting one before the opening of the spring season, when the construc- tion work is to be commenced. The ‘@esire of the committee is to erect the church near the business section of Danielson and convenient to the trol- ley line, for communicants will come here to service from as far north as xvr&m(mu;d.|e u‘dl as far sonth as t was iven out that the change in site is due to inability to reach an agreement as to the deed of the land.
