Desmond, the other members of the com- rittee being Alderman Chatles F. Wells and Councilmen Jolin Gleason and G. Aubrey. City Engineer 8. B. Palmer Was also present. The hearing was declared opened by the mayor at 8 o'clock and the first proj efty owner to be heard was Timothy Murphy. Mr. Murphy said that although he owned but a small piece of property, he was speaking for 8éveral other .prop- erty owners affected by the. proposed as- sessment. Mr. Murphy said he, and the other property owners interested, would likeé to know who petitioned for the sewer and when the petition was presented. Mayor Desmond said he understood that there was no petition. Mr. Murphy said that the property is nothing but a ledge and that he felt the sewer is a city affair’ wholly. He sald the sewer is of no value to him as his property is on the east side of the street. Mr. Palmet, how deep is tha®sewer? asked Mr. Murphy, About five or six feet, answered Mr. Palmer. The sewer is not deep enough, said Mr. Murphy. I represent Mrs. Sullivan who owns prop- erty there. The sewer has been a detri- mént to her property rather than an im- provement. Mr, Murphy then went on to tell of damage suffered by her property through tife laying of the sewer. He said that none of the property holders - there have been compensated .for land dam- ages. Herman Miller, who oWns property at No. 16 West Thames street, said he has a private sewer. He said he couldn't use the new sewer as the foundation of his property 18 twenty geet below the street. W. W. Bent, representing ths estate of Martin F. Bent, said the Bent property i8 located on the east side of the street and is lower than the street. 4n the house he referred to he said there were tWo fories below the level of the street.

T. Shea, a prop- erty owner at No. 67 West Thames street. He said he had provided a cess- pool for his property. Mr. Shea further stated that he can't see why he should be taxed to any great extent. He doesn’t think the advantage is so great that the assessment should be large. He thought the city should bear the whole expense. John Duhaime, another property hold- er, also protested the proposed assess- ment. Mr. Murphy again took the floor and said that the sewer would never have Dbeen built if the city had waited fof a petition. - He said there was hot a house on the east side of the street that can be_benefited. . The hearing adjourned about 9 o'clock after the mayor announced that the pro- tests will be given careful consideration by the committee.

DEVIL'S HOPYARD BECOMES OBJECT OF STATE INTEREST Now that the state park commission has purchased the tract of land near the village of Millington known as the Devil' Hopyard, new interest is attaching to this region. Tn the good weathter in summer, on a pleasant Sunday, seen wending their way over the roads to this secluded spot to enjoy the pleas- ures of a picnic. Some have been o enthusiastic as to style the place the Yellowstone park of Connecticut. Former Corporation Counsel Francis A. Parker of Hartford, whose forbears came from Hadlyme, just a little removed from Millington, has many interesting things in mind concerning the Devil's Hopyard. Mr. Parker says that at some time before 1800, according to tradition, hops were raised on a small clearing comprising about a fourth of an acre, lying beside the highway in the midst of the section now called the Hopyard. clearing is stili visible, but the tradition, unfortunately, has not preserved the name of the hop grower. Places where hops were arown were then called hop- yards and one such place, just over the town line in Lyme, was called the Littie Dawley of Norwich, Marlin-Rockwell Corporation of New Haven and Norwich, and American/Thread Co. of Williman- tie.

Still Alarm for Fire On Dump The fire department recleved .a still alarm at 8:07 o'clock Monday evening for a small fire on the Lake srteet dump. The call was answered by Chief L. Stanton who took several men him in his car. ‘There was no damage. The fire was in a pile of rub-{ that the section mow called the Hopyard took its. name from the small clearing in its midst, once planted to hops, and, in acordance with the usage, denominated a hopyard. Its use, in common speech, dates back to some indeterminate time prior to 1800, not earlier, perhaps, than the time of the Revolution, automobiles are |, This small Hopyard.

Northeasterly of Kettle Hill and on the opposite side of the Fiver is & Iafgéwave-like opening i the ledge Which has been called the Devil's Cave and more commonly the Devil's Oven. Hosford B. Nile$ in his “Old Chimney Stafoks of Bast Haddam,” first published in the Bast Haddam Advertiser in 1871, ih describing the scenery about the falls, spoke of “The Hopyard with ts tall “evergreens, its frowning precipices, and ita Devil's Cave.” He, however, does not use the name. “Devil's Hopyard,” but contents himself with the sifple form, “Hop- yara” Mf.

No name, date, or circumssances of any kind has lent an appearance of truth to this decidedly fantastic tradition. Another tradition is that wayward son of a minlster in the vicinity, who was given to practi#l - jokes, finally committed ~ a misdemeanor , which brought dowh upon him the wrath of the entife community. He was com- pelled leave hom and go to parts unkno to escape from relentless condemnation of public opinion. _After the lapse of a number of years he re- turned secretly and proceeded to even up with the community by terrorizing people in the night. Dressed in a grotesque costume and wearing a mask with a black face and formidable horns he rode on horseback at high speed ‘| along the lonely roads, making hideous noises to attract the attention of the people as he passed their houses. He was the “devil” on horseback to panic- stricken people” who caught glimpses of him, and as he, when observed and fol- lowed, always rode down the highway toward the 'hopyard in_the clearing al- ready mentioned it began to be the cus- tom to associate the name of the Devil with the hopyard. After having f/ghtened -the people of the vielnity for a short time this particular devil dis- appeared and was never heatd of after- wards. As in the other case. no name, date, or corroborating circumstances has over been conmected wkh this tradi- tion. Furthermore, no minister of the Millington church and no minister living in that vicinlty had a son who could be fitted into this story. STAFFORD SPRINGS FREIGHT WRECK BLOCKS C. V. ROAD The Central Vermont rallroad was badly tied up Monday wmorning at Staf- ford Springs when Bix cars of a freight train, No. 408, south bound for New London, were thrown from the rails and ‘went across the ttacks. Three of the cars were coal cars and the others box cars. They left the rafls near the Park street crossing. Rails and ties were torn up for a distance of 100 yards. The sec- ond car from the locomotive was de- railed and buckled five others that were thrown sideways across the iron. It is said that the tracks spread and thus threw off the cars. Passenger trains were forced to transfer the few passeng- ers they carried around the wreck. Tt will be a day or two before the damage can be repaired.
