KEHOE HAS PRESENTED HIS RESIGNATION Advised by his physicians that the state of his health would not allow him at present to continue longer in active employment, Stephen J. Kehoe, superin- tendent of the Norwich Gas and Elec- tric department, has presented his res- ignation to the gas and electrical com- missioners. Action towards choosing a successor has not yet been taken by the board, said President Daniel T. Shea Wednes- day night, nor have they any one in mind yet. While Mr. Kehoe has been in poor health for some time past and not able to fill the duties of the position the dif- ferent department heads have carried on the work, Mr. Shea said, without anyone having been designated as act- ing superintendent to fill Mr. Kehoe's place. General regret will be expressed that the condition of Mr. Kehoe's health makes it advisable for him to resign the position that he has filled with marked ability for the past eight years. His resignation take effect of the first of July. He was appointed general superin- tendent on June 1, 1912, succeeding W. F. Bogue, and coming here from West- erly where he had been in superintend- ent of the Norwich & Westerly Traction Co.. Before that he had filled electrical engineering and power house positions in Lansing, Mich.,, Troy, N. Y., and Fort ‘Wayne, Ind. BISHOP BREWSTER STARTS FOR LAMBETH CONFERENCE Bishop Chauncey B. Brewster of Con- necticut sailed for Europe Tuesday in company with about one-third of the bishops of the Episcopal church in Amer- ica to attend the Lambeth conference in London, which will be attended by bish- ops of the Anglican communion of all parts of the world. Bishop Brewster will give an address near the opening of the conference which will open late in July. He will return to this country in the fail. Many important issues will come up at the conference, some growing out of the ‘war, others of a ritualistic nature. Lambeth is the London residence of the Archbishop of Canterbury, who is the primate of the Church of England. A conference of this kind is occasionally held to bring together the minds direct- ing the church life of the Anglican com- munion. 1t is true that the branches of the Anglican communion are inde- pendent in each country, the ‘Episcopal church in America, for example, but a strong relationship is felt to. other branches holding the same ecclesiasti- cal views and practising the same form of worship.
