Lee Recaptured and Returned to Brewster’s Neck. The working force engaged in trench work in connection with the new gas main, being laid in Broad street, was more than doubled Mon- dGay. and now the work will 2o for- ward with more rapidity and the pub- ic inconvenience be lessened accord- ingly. Townspeople are aggrieved at the digging up of the streets during the busy summer season as it tends to automobile congestion and a serious discomfort to Watch Hill residents. It is the townspeople and not the visi- tors who are complaining. The driv- ers of the Watch Hill automobiles are mostly from New York and other large cities, and are familiar with street ob- structions, much more serious than the laying of a gas main in the West- erly streets, It was noted that Alonzo Capron, who was the first to drive the &harp point of a pick-axe in the trench work a week ago was not on the job Mon- day. “Cape” is A zood, earnest work- er. but is a believer in the one, two, three and out theory. Twice Jast week he was caught in cave-ins in the trench, but escaped injury and he de: cided there would be no third time and it with him. The iron pipes have been laid in Dixon square and it is expected that for the full length of Broad be filled in before the week- end. After that there will be no con- gestion of traffic of which the towns- people complain. The trench work, will continue through Elm street and without any special inconvenierce.

He has a brother in the aviation corps now training at Kelley Field, Texas. An automobile owned by Michael McCarthy of White Rock, and driven by one of his sons. struck a_small boy when in Canal street, Monday morn- ing, but without serious result.
