Dr. Harold Foster of New York, who is spending his vacation on Putnam Heights, held a clinic at the Day Kim- ball hospital Saturday morning, at which time nearly 20 children had tomsils and adenoids removed. Mr. and Mrs. Charles Champlin of Grove street returned to Putnam Sunday after passing two weeks in camp on the Niantic river. Mr. and Mrs. Newten Ballard, Kenneth C. Ballard and Miss Marion Carpenter were in Webster, Mass., Saturday after- noon attending the wedding of Miss Dor- othy Nash, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Clarence Nash, and John Braley. Fol- lowing the ceremony, there was a recep- tion at the home of the bride's parents, where Kenneth Rallard was one of the ushers. Seventy years old, with long white hair hanging down over his shoulders, and wearing the campaign hat he wore when he charged up San Juan Hill behind Teddy Roosevelt, William Brennan, after nearly i year's absence from Putnam, returned to this city last week, stayed a day, and then once more set out upon the broad highway. With a story that is far stranger than fiction, and with experi- ences that outdo the adventures of he- roes of tales of the imagination, the old man hobbled about the streets of Put- nam, talked freely to all who were will- ing to listen, and fascinated his hearers with stories of the olden days when he was a rough rider and cow puncher in the west. The old soldier, always having led an acitve life, cannot bear the thoughts of settling down, and even though he suffers as be tramps from to town; scuffing along a few miles he prefers this to a sedentary ex- istence. For many years the old man lived at the town.farm here, but a year ago, seized with restlessness and a desire to once more see the world, he left that in- stitution in the middle of the night, which all his companions and the supe: intendent were asleep. He did not have the faintest notion concerning his desti- nation. But, as he said, he was out in the open, free to journed wherever incli- nation prompted, and he was happy. To be sure, he had not a cent in his poekets, and he was hardly able to walk because of lameness which necessisated the use of two canes, but he did not werry, for, as he said, someone would provide, and he would not be allowed to drep by the wayside. By mid-day he had reached Mechan le, four miles up the Quine- baug valley, and here, overcome with hunger, he sold the shoes on his feet to get money with which to buy a little food. With the pittance that was’ left, he bought an old pair of rubbers, put these on his stockingless feet, and once more started along on a journey that ultima‘ely took him all over the soathern part of New England. According to the veteran, and his eyes sparkled as he told it, he later arrived in’ Webster, where kirid Sisters of Char- ty gave him food. From Webster the path to Worcester lay open and he trudged along slowly. In some stages of his wanderings he was given rides by passing farmers or automobilists with kind hearts. He reached Worcester, only to reverse his tracks, which finally brought him to New Haven. Here he was arrested, because the officers thought it unwise to let o old and frail 2 man wander aimlessly around. Friends saw to it thdt a small sum was raised and given to Mr. Brennan, who was placed on a train in charge of a con- ductor. The next stop was Hartford, and here again, after appealing to the asso- ciated charities, money was raised to send the old man back to Putnam. Ar- riving here, his clothing hanging in shreds. and witheut a penny to his name, he went to the only real friend he had n the city. Those who knew him and knew his story begged him to return to the town farm, where there will always be a home for him. But to that he would not listen. And so, after sleeping in the police station for ona night, he set out again upon his wanderings. No one knows where he is going. The last hearc of the old man was from a person to whom he talked just as he was leaving the outskirts. e declared he thought he should go to Springfield, not because he wanted to go there for any particular reason, he explained, but simply because it was somewhere to go, and a eity that he desired to visit. Brennan was born in Worcester, but when a young man went west, where he became a cowboy. He saw a little ser- vice in the last days of the Civil war, and when peace was declared he again ‘went to the prairies. When Teddy Roose- velt organized his rough riders, Bren- nan, then a proficient horseman, joined the dauntless group and throughout the Spanish war followed the brave leader of this band of fearless fighters. Those days are now but memories to him, but Mr. Smith was a native of Ireland, but lived the greater part of his life in this country and was one of the oldest and most respected citizens of the commun- ity where he died. He leaves his wife and one son, Frank Smith. Mr. Smith was well known in Danielson ,where deliver to customers butter and other products of his dairy and ofo his farm.
