ARCHITECT'S ADMINISTRATOR SUE TO COLLECT $2,500 DAMAGES Edward M. Sweeney of New London, nistrator of the estate of his broth- the late James Sweeney, a New Lon- dan architect, has brought suit in the superior court for §2.500 damages against Frederick H. Gavitt of New TLondon D tect The claim made is that Gavitt em- ployed the architect in October, 1916, to make plans for the alterations of the Hotel Royal property and that the arch- itect presented a bill for $1,489 which Gavitt agreed to pay. In consideration of this being paid the architect agreed on Qctober 8, 1917, to perform further on a claim that Gavitt has not a bill for the services of the archi- services in altering the plans without extra charge. The administrator claims that the itect performed additional services that were worth $300. There was a clause in the agreement that if Mr. Gavitt decided to postpone operations on the building for a period longer than three months, the whole should be paid without delay. The defendant has wholly failed to have the work done at the Hotel Royal and has not paid the bill of the architect. The suit is returnable on the first Tuesday in June. Professor Binder, of New York Uni- versity, estimates that the United States has resources sufficient to provide for $250,000,000 inhabitants. Cinot Man Says:—Vice President Marshall Told J. B.

P = * DANIELSON - ; Former Postmaster George Milton Pilling died at 2 o'clock Monday morning at the Backus hospital in Norwich. Dur- ing thé wast,week Mr. Pilling became ill and, Friday evening, his condition hav- ing become so grave as to indicate the need of an immediate surgical operation, he was taken to the Norwich hospital, where the operation was at once per- formed. Mr. Pilling did not rally well and his conditien indicated during Sat- urday -and Sunday there was but slight chance of his recovery. Mr. Pilling was born June 4, 1854, at Cumberland, R. I, a son of Reuben and Ann (Worthington) Pilling. He came to Danielson with his parents when he was ten years of age and had since made his home here. For a long term of years Mr. Pilling was engaged as a master painter, retiring from this business upon his appointment by President Wilson to be postmaster at Dnaielson. During his long residence here Mr. Pilling always was a member of the democratic party and was prominently identified with it. His party elected him time and again to different public offices and upon each occasion that he was a cardidate he received much xgpublican support. He had served as selectman, for years as bailiff of the borough, as constable and in other town offices be- fore being appointed postmaster in 1915. Mr. Pilling was twice married, his first wife being Miss Emma Porter. Mr. Pilling leaves his wife, who was Miss Hattie Pierce, a sor, Earl W, a civil engineer, of Dedham, Mass, 2 daughter, Mrs. Ethel L. Mellor, wife of Martin Mellor, of Warehouse Point, also a sister, Miss Emma F. Pilling of Danielson, and three brothers, Luther, Danielson; Reu- ben, Providence, and Emmanuel of West Medford, Mass. At 3:45 Monday morning Miss Lizzie F. Prentice died at her home at the corner of Main and Winter streets. Miss Prentice became ill Thursday, her condi tion soon becoming o alarming as to in- dicate that her condition was very serious. She failed rapidly during Sunday, when it was indicated| that her recovery was impossible. Miss Prentice was the daughter of the late James L. and Lucy Cushing Pren- tice and was born in Pomfret, Septem- ber 21, 1869. Nearly all her life had been spent in Danielson, she continuing to make her home at the Prentice residence after the death of her parents. Miss Prentice leaves a brother, Stephen, of Lakewood, R. L There is special interest at this time in the welfare of Rev. and and Mrs. John Howland, formerly of Danielson, now missionaries in Mexico, and well known througawut eastern Connecticut. Following is an extract from a letter written by Mrs. Howland to her sister, Miss Marion D. Chollar of Broad street, and pertaining to the turbulent times that the republic to the south is experi- encing. 1 Mexico City, May 11, 1920. Very likely you have read of the new revolution in Mexico and were not surprised to have an interruption in the mail service. ‘We have not received mail for several days, but it is beginning to come in now, they say, and it will not be long before we shall get letter: The overturn was accomplished in a perfectly pacific way in the city, but there has been and is fighting on the railroad between Mexico City and Puebla where the presidential trains are located. Carranza waited a litfle too long to collect all he wanted to take with him when he decided to change his seat of government to Vera Cruz and he was held up on the way with many train- loads of material, as well as a great many people who left with him. It is rumored that he escaped on horseback. The forces of Obregon and Gonzalez are in the city and are keeping order, hut mo onc can foresee the issue of the fighting. ‘We are all right, however, and have not had a bit of trouble thus Far. ‘The worst feature 4s the high cost of living. making it hard to know what to give the boys in the boarding school to eat. All other expenses have gone up, jtoo, and our appropriation does not hold ouf to cover so much extra. “The stage has won another recruit from among the capable amateur ac- tresses of society in Miss Margaret Grosvenor Hutchins, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. R. Grosvenor Hutchins of 44 East 65th Street,” says a news story of local interest in a New York paper. Miss Hutchins is a great-granddaughter of Mr. and Mrs. Isaac T. Hutchins , of Danielson and a granddaughter of Rob- ert Grosvenor Hutchins, D/ D., recalled as one of the speakers at Danielson’s bicentennial celebration in 1908. Her family has been associated prominently with the history of Killingly since the early days of the town. Miss Hutchins will make her first pro- fessional appearance as a member of the forthcoming production of Scrambled Wives, under the management of Adolph Klauber. The play is now in rehearsal in New York and is to be seen at some of the summer theatres at seaside re- sorts before opening a fadk engagement in New York. Mr. Hutchins, father of the young woman who has the promise of a bril- liant career on the stage, is a member of the banking firm of Hallgarten and Co., with offices in Nassau street. He and Mrs. Hutchins long have been friends of Jane Cowd, wife of Mr. Klauber, and recently expressed satisfaction that their daughter has entered the careers for which she has prepared. Miss Hutchins is a native of Colum- bus, O. She studied at the Columbus I Schools for Girls, Mrs. Hazen's school at Pelham Manor, Chateau Brillantmont, Lusanne, Switzerland, and the Brearly school, New York, graduating from the latter institution in 1917. She was a freshman at Bryn Mawr college when she offered her services to the government as a telephone operator. Her popularity at the college is attested by the fact that she had been elected president of her class. For ten months Miss Hutchins served as a telephone operator in France, part of the time in the aviation headquarters. switchboard in Paris and the remainder of the time at Crillon of the American commission ~to negotiate peace. Her father was on duty for the Red Cross in Paris. Danielson’s committee, In carrying out its program of having teams go about the borough and coliect such rubbish or discarded material as property owners or tenmants wish to be rid of, had its service organized Monday afternoon and collections of waste matter were being made. \g\ This morning,. in fact all through to- day, another opportunity is offered the public to avail itself of this free removal service. All that is required is that the material to be taken away be upt in box- es, barrels or some other container and left out at the edge of the sidewalk, where the drivers of the teams will readily see it where they can handle it without waste of time. The - teams that will start out this morning are to go through Water, Maple, all streets in the Riverview section, Railroad, Hawkins, Academy, Nerth, Westfleld avenue, Mechanic, Fur- nace, Carter, Dyer, Franklin. Broad streets. If the public will show the same pub- lic spirit as is being manifested by the committee in charge of the work and the local organizations that.are financipg it, Twenty-five young people make up the class that will be graduated from Put- nam high school next month, the mem- bership being as follows: Classical course—Miss Beatrice May Morton, John Michael Hogam; general course— Stanton Wallis Ballard, Helen Rosalie Byrnes, Gladys E£velyn Covell, Margaret Loretta Frasier, Donald Ierrin Holmes, ‘Wilbour Chase Lo Eavor Mary Murphy, Iver -Samuel Nelson, Stuart ‘Winfield Pease, George Arnold Stoudard; commercial course—Alice Alna Adams, Keyren Harrison Cotter, Liil:an Delisle, Thomas William Dobson, Anaa Marie Donhg; Edward Joseph Farreil, Thomas ncis Eaniey, Ruth Elizassta Fratt Louis Rodinsky, Evelyn Louise Shaw, Florence 1Irene Smith, Myrtis Belle Storms, James Thomas Woodson. Miss Ruth C. Child, °2f, of this eity, has been elected vice president of the debating society at Mount Holyoke col- lege for #he year 1920-21. Miss Child was one of sthe victorious debaters at ‘Wellesley in the intercollegiate debate, and was one of the four juniors recently electzd to Phi Beta Kappa society. Dur- ing the past year Miss Child has beey secretary of the ‘debating society at Mount Holyoke. Farmers of Pomfret and Abington did their utmost to impress the members of the public utilities commission at_Hart- ford, at a hearing held relative to change the time of the morning milk train back to the old schedule, that it is no joke to Danielson should benefit materially appearance for Memorial day. There is a possibility that the case of Miss Gertrude A. Wardell vs the town of Killingly will come to trial in the superior court at Putnam on June 8, Judge Keeler has tentatively assigned the case to begin on that date, providing he can so arrange his work in Tolland as to permit of his coming to Putnam at that time. The case will be tried before a jury. We have just received two brand new five-passenger, 1920, Velie cars. We in- vite you to inspect them. The Danifelson Garage, C. H. Pellette, Prop.

In special tests made at Putnam high school, students have shown a much higher average in use of vocabulary and in sentence work than the record made by the Monnt Holly, N. J., High school. The tests used were taken from an edu- cational publication printed in New Jer- sey and containing tables showing what was done by students in the Mount Holly High school. The percentage attained by the Putnam students was from 10 to per cemt. higher than that of the New Jersey High school students. The joint committee representing pa- triotic organizations of the city held a meeting Monday evening to further con- sider details of .the plans for the Me- morial day observance here on Monday of next week.
