GAGER Faneral Director and Embalme: Prompt serviceday or night RO Town i Fifty vears ago in Norwich there were the usual Christmas eve services in the Episcopal churches. The at- tendance in the churches on the Sun- day before the holiday was diminished by the icy gbing due to a severe storm, General O. O. Howard lectured in the city on the education of the colored race. The New London Coun- ty Temperance Union held their an- nual meeting in this city but did not elect officers. Extracts from The Bulletin files of December, 1869, follow. Dec, 21—A large congregation gath- ered from nearly all the churches in the city assembled at the Broadway church Sunday afternoon to hear Gen. 0O, O. Howard, chief of the Friedmen's Bureau speak on The Education of the Colored Race. The attendance at the churches yes- terflay was small. The storm and dangerous walking kept muny indoors. The afternoon services at the Central Daptist church and évening services at the Second church were omitted. Dec. 22—There is urgent need of a raved walk from Thames street to the passenger station of the New London Northern railroad. The mud is nearly ankle deep there. A meeting of retail dealers was held last evening at FrankWn hall for the rurpose of taking measures asgainst abuses of the credit system by “dead- beats.” The annual meeting of the New Lon- don County Temperance Union wa! held in the lecture room of the Broad- way Congregational church Monday.

The pub- lic schools will end their sessions for tke term this afternoon. The directors of the Norwich City Gas company have declared a dividend of five per cent. payable on the capl- tal stoci. The festival of the East Main street Methodist church was held in the lec- ture room of the church )ast evening. The room was tastefully decorated. A very nice assortment of cakes and fancy work was offered for sale. Dec. 24—There seems to be a fatal ity about Norwich bridges. Either the engineers who ‘have them in charge are deplorably ignorant of their busi- ness or their liability to make blun- ders is such as to seriously impair tieir usefulness. It was discovered the other day that the naw abutment for the West Yantic bridge was tou low to permit engines to pass under il without the inconvenience of taking in their 'smokestacks. The depot of the Norwich and Wor- cester railroad in Jewett City has been enlarged. Dec. 25—The usual Christmas _eve celebrations were held in the Episco- pal churches last evening. Christ ckurch was baautifully decorated with evergreen. The rector, Rev.

Mr. Sylvester preached from: “But when the fullness cf time was come God sent ®r His son.” The music was composed by F. W. White, tho tenor of the choir. The annual Sunday school festival was held zt the M. E, Pree church last evening. The room was deco- rated with evergreens and appropriate mottoes. * There will be no Bulletin tomorrow as today is a holiday, SANATORIUM PATIENT WRITES OF CHRISTMAS CHEER That the patients at the state tuber- culosis sanatorium thoroughly appre- ciated the gifts of local people is evi- denced in the following story written by B That Santa Claus is a myth, would find but few believers among the pa- tients at the state tuberculosis sana- torium. He was there in person | Christmas morning, with a load of presents which no team of reindeer { could have drawn unless equipped with | an auxiliary Liberty motor. The day was ushered in at an early | hour with the singing of the age-old carols by the staff, which visited each ward in turn. After breakfast the ar- | rival of the Christmas mail brought a flood of cards and gifts from the “home folks.” At 9.30 Santa Claus arrived, isquelching the rumor that he had zone to KEurope to carry the good; wishes of the American people to the Such a load of presents! ents galore! Presents for every- body! Presents selected by those whe know the needs and wishes of the pa- | tients as only they can know who have | |lived the life themselves. Sleeping | caps, woolen socks, hot water bottles, to mention but a few of the most suit- | able gifts received. The interest shown in opening and examining packages and bundies plainly showed that at heart every grown up is a ‘kid.” At| | least on Christmas day. T featler of the distribution was the | | “grab bag.” FEach patient “grabbing” a package which on being opened dis- closed some small object very unsuited to that particular patient. Many of the men patients grabbed dollos, rattles, toy dogs, etc. A visitor at this time would have thought the place anything but a hospital ward. fter the distribution the patients ed the different wards to view the decorations. ch ward had a tree, gaily decorated, and a wealth of holly wreaths, Christmas bells, gay-colored reamers and flags transformed each ard into a veritable beauty spot. The, decorations were the work of the nurses, who outdid themselves in their to make the wards bright and 30 dinner was served. There {are dinners and dinners. But a New | England Christmas dinner, such as rved to the patients, means but one thing—"turkey and everything!” On each tray was dainty favor in the form of a miniature Santa Claus or Christmas tree, During the afternoon many of the { patients received visitors, and in the evening the Victrola furnished music, several new records being enj o aps” every patient agreed that it | was a good old world in spite of the | kaiser. To the doctors; and nurses, and to the women who gave so much of their time and efforts to make their Christ- mas what it was, and to all those who <o generously contributed to the holi- day fund, the patients acknowledge their debt of gratitude and extend sincerest. wishee for a happy and New Year.
