HENRY DWIGHT ARMSTRONG DIES AFTER BRIEF ILLNESS Indigestion Henry Dwight Armstrong, 54, dled very suddenly Sunday morning at one o'clock at his home on North Main street. A few minutes’ illness with acute indigestion was the cause of death. Soon after he became ill Mr. Armstrong lapsed into unconscious- ness and remained in that state while life Jasted. husbard when he was taken ill. She did evervthing possibhle to ald him and them notified a neighbor, Charles A. Tillinghast: of his condition. Dr. W. H. Jndson was summoned and re- sponded quickly, but Mr. Armstrong’s condition was so eritical that nothing could be done to aid Mim. B The announcement of his death Sun- day morning startled the community. Saturday evening at 9 o'clock he was down town and apparently in his us- na), exceedingly robust healith. He had been very busy with his affairs all day lone and there was nothing to Indicate that death was waiting just ahead of him. Mr. Armstrong was one of business in eastern Connecticut. years he had been the representative of wholesale grocery firms and work- ed through this section of the state at the time of his eath for Brownell, Field and Company of Providence. He was known intimately by all of the men in_ his line who do business in eastern Connecticut and enjoved the close friendly relations with them that came of a. winning personality combin- ed with years of association in a bus- iness way. > also was we!l known throughout the state of Rhode Island _through which he traveled for years. Recently, as an_auxiliary to his regular occu- pation, Mr. Armstrong established a real estate and insurance business in Danjelson, where he had come to make his home, from Providence, where he lived for many years. He was at native of Moores, N. Y. where he was born on February 15,1854 He is survived by his wife. e OBITUARY Mrs. Walter F. Day. Mrs. Caroline M. Day, wife of Walter F. Day, died Saturday. even- ing at their homme at The Maples, on the Goodyear road. Mrs. Day haé been in failing health for a long time and recently had been in New YYork for treatment. She was born in Andever, Conn, Nov. 23 1853, the daughter of Julius and Julia Lincoln Rood. For many vears she had been a resident of Kill- ingly and was well known in grange circles.

With the growth of the borough, the need is a pressing one, as will he disastrously demonstrated, it is held by those who are supporting the measure, the first time in Danielson has a big fire and finds itself without the proper equip- ment with which to fight it. Notwithstanding the fact that tax- tiayers who ‘are assessed on $1,114.634 worth of property, $43,166 more than half the total grand list of the borough, have signified their approval of the plan to purchase the truck and mot- withstanding the offer of $1,000 from the Quinnebaug company and another $1,000 from the Connecticut Mills Co. toward the purchase price there is some degree of opposition to the making of the appropriation. it developed Sun- day. How widespread this opposition is could not be ascertained. The laying of a special half miR tax over a brief period of years is the the plan suggesfed for mesting the truck expenditure, 50 as not to add the cost permanently to the borough's debt. This fact taken with the offer of gen- erous gifts from the manufacturing concerns has convinced many that Danielson never will have a better chance to get a much-needed plece of fire apparatus than it has tonight and those interested will he urging all who flag, and Killingly will win that honor, and win it easily, if it lives up to its record of doing things in war times.
