Ben- nett, who has resigned as pastor of St. Mary’s Episcopal church. | there were 470 present at i ological seminary. Judge Case has overruled the city's demurrer to the complaint made by the Misses Lucas against the City of Norwich in which they ask the su- perior court to grant an injunction re- straining the municipal officials from tearing up otherwise destraping the present walk around the _ Main Street side of the Breed Building and from laying a granolithic walk. Last September the court of com- mon council ordered a number _ of property owners, including the Misses Lucas, to lay granolithic walks and curbs. The Misses Lucas refused to lay a granolithic walk as thev claimed that theiir walk is in_good condition and that the city had no power to or- der them to tear up their walk~and replace it with a_granolithic walk. It is said that the city then threat. ened to tear up the waik and lay the granolithic walk according to the or- der passed by the council. The Miss- es Lucas then petitioned” the superior court to grant them an injunction re- straining the city authorities from tearing up the present walk and lay- ing the granolithic walk. The city de- murred to the complaint and as stat- ed above the demurrer has been Ov- erruled by Judge Case. In his memorandum Judge Regardless of any other consider- ation the second paragraph of the complaint saves it from demurrer. If there was a “sufficient” walk and curb at the indicated point, it implies, on the record so far disclosed, arbitrary action Dby the city, which was beyond its powers. The demurrar is over- ruled. Damages of $2,500 For Plaintiff. In the action brought against the Case City pf Norwich by Mary Lucy as the resuit of a fall on Main street on De- cember 20, 1916, Judge Case has awarded the plaintiff damages of $2,- 500. Damages of six thousard dollars were asked in the complaint. Mrs. Lucy fell in the fall to the side- walk, fractured the joint of her right thigh and received injuries to her ner- vous system and body. Shortly aft- er the accident she filed action against the city asking $6,000 damages. On March Sth she died. In his memorandum of decision Judge Case savs: Notwithstanding the somewhat re- stricted scope under our cases of mu- nicipal Hability for injurfes incurred as these were, I think it obvious that the city was negligant in allowing structual conditions to remain at the points in_question which disclosed a danger of the municipal authorities WRITES OF HER LIFE IN MEXICO. Interesting Extracts of Letter from Mrs. John Howland. Miss Nancy E. Lucas of this city, who is now at Hyannisport, Mass.. has received a very interesting letter from Mrs, John Howland, who with her hus- band has been a missionary in Mexico. many years. News from Mrs. Howland is ever of interest to Norwich people. Extracts_from the letter, which was ten June 18th, follow: We reached Mexico City in February and. went to live in a suburb of the city called Coyoacan, in what used to be the Presbyterian manse, the wives of all_the missionaries not having Te- urned to Mexico and leaving these acant rooms. Here we staved until after the national convention, finding much to do in visiting different mis- sions about the city, speaking and taking Sunday school classes nearly every Sunday. My husband is giving a series of Sunday morning talks in the Y. M. C. A. and on Tuesday evenings he gives a lecture to all the' Sunday school teachers of the city.

The school is to be supported by seven or eight denqmina- tions and ali belfeve that we must have a good modern outfit in order to meet the needs of the students. We are not at a loss for opportuni- tles In every line. As old missionaries there are so many things open before us_that It Is quite districting. This city is the center of mission work in the republic and we have calls in every direction.

Brought Against City by Mary Lucy. ty is Im- rot manifest to a casual pedestrian whenever ice formed. Such a situa- tion, long existing, demanded vigli- Jance on the city's part to take at least temporary precautions against danger whenever an emergency called for it. Only upon the theory that Mrs. Lu- cy should not have left her house at all that morning, can negligence be at- tributed to her. She was upon the testimony an unusually active woman for her years, and did only what other pedestrians dia whose duties called them from home on their necessary Dbusiness. What others saw of the occurrence, coupled with her own ad- misable statement as to her actions an. dcourse of conduct, establishes due care on her part. I think, however, that the evidence does not warrant of the vital connection between fhe injuries and Mrs. Lucy's death, and that a judgment and an assessment of sed could not be justi- But it is undenfable that her injuries were of such a character as to probably permanently wholly disa- ble her phzsical activity. Damages are assessed for pain and suffering and the incidental medical, nursing. an dother expenses at $2.500, and judgment is directed for the plaintiff to recover that sum with costs. Verdict Set Aside. In*the case of Betha Hantmann v. John H. Ryan, Judge Case has grant- ed the defendant’s motion to set aside the verdict. On June 28th a jury awarded the plaintiff damages of $200. The defendant flled a motion to set aside the verdict claiming that it was manifestly against the evidence and weight of the evidence, and that the amount given by the verdict was ex- cessive. Another Demurrer Overrulled. A motion to expunge has been de- nied and a demurrer overruled by Julige Case in the case of Frank M. Rose Katherine Finlay, Ex. of the will of George W. Finlay, late of Manchester. It is a ten thous- and dollar damage sult. The complaint in the actfon repre- sents that in December, 1§93, deceased owed ths plaintiff $5,000. To secure the debt ths deceased promised to take out a policy of life insurance payable to the plaintiff and also to invest a certain sum in a building association the principal, after a certain accum- nlation to be assigned to thy plaintiff. The deceased- failed to fulfill either promise. The plaiatiff made claim after his death to the executrix but pavment was refused. STREETS ARE ORDERED OPENED UP AGAIN Further Need of Restrictions About the H. & A. Plant. Mayor Allyn L. Brown, in a_letter to Edwin W. Higgins, one of the re- ceivers of the Hopkins & Allen Arms company, has signified his intention of removing the traffic restrictions which have heen in force about the arms plant on Franklin street for some No time past.

REV. DR. SLOCUM HAPPY IN YONKERS. John D. Rockefeller Colebrates His 78th Birthday Quietly With Friends in Dr. Slocum's Church. Norwlich friends of Dr. Joel B cum, until recently pasior of the ( tral Baptist church of this city and now pastor of the Warburton avenu Baptist church of Yonkers, N.

Dr. Slocum preached that morning a memorial sermon in recognition of the late Dr. Henry L. Morehouse.

After the ser- vice the pastor and Mr. Rockefeller had a pleasant chat. It was the 7Sth birthday of the latter, and he is re- ported to have looked hale and hearty. Mr. Rockefeller attends the Warburton avenue church occasionally and people who saw him there lately were very much amused to see in the New York papers the next day that Mr. Rockefeller had “spent his birthday Guietly in his home, not ever goinz to church as is his invariable custom.” Kvidently the reporters are not always lively enough to keep tragk of the old man, Mrs. Slocum has been at Northfield Mass.. for two weeks as the guest of e of the women of the Warburton nue church, in attendance upon the of the women's foreign and home missionary societies, and stopping at Hotel Northfield. Dr. Slocum is scheduled to preach in his former pulpit in_ the Central church here Aug. 5th. The following Sunday he will preach in the chapel at Fastern Point, and on Aug. 19th and 26th he will preach in Boston. Doesr’t Think Hinch Escaped. William M.
