Up EVENTS OF FIFTY YEARS AGO Start Foundatlom For Richards Bluldmg-—-Man Drowned Near Palmertown—Steamer Sunbeam thes First Trip to Watch' Hill —Sunday School Picnic to Middletown. Fifty years ago the past week a man was drowned in the river near Palmer- town while under the influence of liquor. The common council appro- priateq one hundred and iifty dollars to build seats in the cemeteries. Sev- eral of the Sunday schools held their picnics, the Greeneville people making an all day, trip to Middletown. There were a couple of accidents but no fatal ones save drowning. One of the chief eventsichronicled was the start of the foundation of the Richards Building. Another event of interest was the changing of the method of fining users for overdue books at the Otis Library. Extracts from The Bulletin files of '68_follo July 27:—A child of John Gilman who resides on the West Side fell out of bed Saturday morning and broke his collar bone. Locklin Kelly, an intelligent Irish- man in the employ ofs E. H. Palmer of Palmertown was drowned in the river Thames on July 24. The cor- oner’s jury rendefed a verdict that the deceased came to his death by drown- ing in the river Thames while under Hull of Christ church officlating. The aperatives from the mills of the Falls Co., of.which he was the superin- tendent thronged the premises and begged with tears to be allowed the privilege of taking a last look at their dead friend. Unconsciously perhaps they paid the highest possible tribute to his life and character. July 30:—The stearler Sunbeam made her first trip to Watch Hill and intermediate watering places yester- day. At every landing place crow: flocked on board to inspect her and the universal verdict is that she is just the craft that was needed. Sunday School Picnic. The steamer W. W.

Mr. House and wife re- ceived and entertained a large party of friends at the Methodist parsonage at the Falls last evening. They have recently returned from their wedding At a meeting of the Common Council held Saturday, one hundred and fifty dollars was appropriated to purchase seats for the cemeteries. July 28:—An old lady started a peep show at.the corner of Bliss' jewelry store yesterday but did not do a very lively business. W. W.

Fenry Holmes who street on the West forenoon fell out of the third story of the brick machine shop on the West Side. While passing the second story he caught a piece of shafting which was being lowered which deadened the fall somewhat. Beyond some painful contusions he sustained no visible in- jury but it is feared he is hurt inter- nally. July 29:—A. W. Prentice & Co are building a brick addition two stories high in the rear of their warehouse on Commerce street. h A very larze crowd went on the pic- nic of the East Main street Methodist Sunday school on the steamer W.
