Murphy, chairman, Lester anjy A'bert vudge, Thirty years agé Wednesday, April 7, 1920, Chief of Police Daniel J. Kil- lourey became a regular on the Willi- mantic police force and since that time he has served as patrolman, lleu- tenant and finally chief which = tion’ he fills today with efficiency above criticism, Congratulations were received by the chief Wednesday by many local people who remembered the anniversary. Chief Killourey, who is the only officer left of those guardians of the peace appointed by the court of burgesses of the Willi- mantic borough April 7, 1890, is to- day as strong and husky as he was when an athlete whose prowess was known .to these who met in compe- tition with him. The chief gives the credit for his good health to his ath- leti¢ training ang favors this training for the boys of today. He is also a total abstainer from liquor, also from tobacco in ‘any form, The chief has seen the Willimantic police force come up from one that was or was not according to the par- Ly in control until today it is entirely independent of politics. When Chief Killourey sent in his application for membership on the police force in 1890 many believed the application would be rejected, as the republicans were in power. 8. Seth Billings, a republican, as warden, was in office and he established a precedent by accepting the application of Chief Kil- lourey, who made a regular cop. Chief Killourey since bécoming a member -of the force has served un- der four captains of police—Fred Clark, now of Providence, R, I, the late Henry 8. Hills, William Hill- house anq Edgar H. Richmond. When Captain Richmend took the office in 1800, Killourey -was made lieutenant. When the titie of captain was drop- ped in 1911 the title of chief was adopted but ‘the lieutenant continued. Chief Richmong resigned in 1917 and Lieutenant Killourey was advanced to the top-notcher. Chief K:'an- known as a man who gets the persen he is out after and AUIIGE 1.8 wiu.y years on the force has assisted in many important arrests.

The supper committee served sandwiches, cake and coffee, with ice cream, The guests expressed cordial good wishes for Ruthie lodge for the ceming year. D. L. Phillips’ historical record gives this account of the Jewett City Bap- tist cemetery: The entrance to this cemetery is in the rear of the Jewett City Baptist church, perhaps & hun- dred and fifty feet from it. Nearly two centuries ago all of Jewett City north of the Pachaug river was divided into two parts. The Averys owned the western part, while the eastern portion belonged to the Smiths. In 1742 Jo- seph Avery and Samue! Smith finally settled their dividing line and placed its description on record. This line began at a point near the falls of the Quinebaug and extended to a point on Ilhc Pachaug river on or near the site now occupied by the Riverside gram- mar school. The land now occupied by this cemetery is on that ancient and historic line about midway be- iween the two noints mentioned. It is situated, as already mentioned, in the rear of the Baptist church and is ac- cessible only through .the church grounds, while those buried there were either in sympathy or belonred to families in gympathy with the dis- tinative doctrines of that church. | ‘The fact remains, however, that the Jewett C.ty Baptist church and the Jewett Cily Baptist cemetery have al- ways heen ceparate institutions. When first used for burial purposes, the ownevsr of this cemetery was di- vided; the land itself was of little value, and burials seem to have been strply permitted. In 1846 Rufus Wil- liams. purchased the west half, and five years later, in 1851, he secured the east half. Up to this time busials con- tinued to be permitted. In March, 1851, Williams laid out the yard into burial lots and their sale commenced. Many years ago Mathewson street, which bounds it on the north, was laid out, and later the wall of an excava- tion at right angles with that street was built, thus. defining the bounds of the cemetery in the rear and partiy on the. cast side. The bounds had formerly been some- what yague, for it is said that certain graves were disturbed by the running of these lires. A few years ago an effort was made to put this yard into respectable condition, and a sum of money was raised by the lot owners and laid out for this purpose, but it has again fallen into a state of neglect. In' this yard is the grave of Rev. Benajah Cook, founder and first pastor of the Jewett City Baptist church. One hundred and fifty-eight graves have been made out here, of wk 145 are marked by stones bearing inscrip- tions, the oldest bearing the date of 1835. But reliable tradition insists Mass., spent Sunday at his home here. Mrs. Phebe Stewart has moved into the parsondge. Trout fishermen find the water too high for much success. . Mrs. ida Owens of Danielson spent Easter Sunday with friends here. Charles Sweet has moved to Oneco. ~ MOTHER! “California Syrup of Figs" vj Child’s Best Laxative “California™ Warm Your Rooms from One Register that a Mariott child who died in 1842 was the first j.erson buried there. this is correct, the older date marks a grave of the one who was first buried in some other yard and afterward re- moved to this place. 1t ‘'should be stated that Mrs. Abby Barrows was born in Griswold: her mother was born in Escoheag, R.
