Brown, 177, for many years a resident of Putnam and fThompson, is dead at his home on King street. While he had been in falling health for some years he was up and dround until about seven Weeks ago. He had retireg frory active work hav- ing been a farmer nearly all his life. Mr. Brown was born in Thompson, November 24th, 1842, the son of Lemuel and Phoebe Hall Brown. He attended the school ir Thompson, now the Saw- yer District school of Putnam. He fin- ished his education under the tutoring of an uncle in Vermont. Mr. Brown went west in 1885 and lo- cated in Kansas. His wife died in 1893 and in1694 he returned to Putnam. Mr. Brown wab .three times married. His first wife was Miss Sarah Terrill of Vermont, whom he married in 1865. She died in 1893 and the following year he married Miss Emma Fenn of Put- nam, who died about five years later. His third marriage was with Miss Blla E. Waterman of Providence, who sur: vives. Reinzi Brown, a nephew of Mr. Brown, has made his home with his uncle since 1880 and has been as a son to him. During the latar years it has beén Mr. Brown's custom to spend theé winters in the south. Mr. Brown was for years a member of the Second Congregational church and was a deacon and for some time sup- erintendent of the Sunday school. When he came t6 Putnam he became a member of th Second Congrgational churchH and served as deaon. He was an ardent advocate of temperance and active in the prohibition cause, although he voted the republican ticket. A fire of unknown origin that was discovered at three o'clock kriday morn- ing totally destroyed the two story frame building mext to the Pomfret post office occupied by Leon Allard as a gen- eral store. The building and stock were a total loss, estimatéd at $15,00u, only partially covered by insurance. Miss Helen Byrnes, daughter of - the post- mistress, was awakened by a light in her bed room. She looked from the window and saw flames bursting from the second story of the mnext building. She quickly gave.the alarm. There is no fire department in Pomfret but a bucket brigade was rapidly formed. This was ineffective and the fire de- partment in Putnam was notified and a truck responded. By the time the Put- nam department arrived (he building was a mass of flames and nothing could be done except to protect nearby build- ings. Mr. Allard, proprietor of the store, and his. wife were in Providerice. Joseph Allard, father of the proprictor, locked ap the store for thé night about ten o'clock. There was no fire in the @ id- ing and everything appeared to ali | right at that time. In the second story were thousands of .dollars worth of general merchandise, 2uiomobile tires and accessories. Mr. Allard remembers that there were several cases of matches stored there and thinks that possibly rats were responsible for the Dblaze. This is the only solution offered as to how the fire could have started. With- out means of fighting fire had there been a high wind there might have been a greater loss as the Allard store is surrounded by several other. woaden structures, including the post office and the large store of Smith Brothers. The building was owned by Richard .Clem- ens, the village blacksmith. Mr. Allard has occupied it for the past six years. He states that he will erect some kind of a structure -immediately, to take care of his trade. Following the completion of - their work, the registrars of voters, Hermon G. Carver and George Potvin, announce that 74 names have been addéd to thé caucus lists. Of these 51 were maleé republicans and 19 femalé republicans. A total of four new names were added to the democratic list. When asked 1if many voters changed their political faith and jasked to be transferred from one party to the other the registrars said, “A few.” Thesé they sdid were tansferred from thé democratic to the republican list. It is announced by Health Officer Peter A. Gardner, that the samples of city water he sent to the state labora- tory, at the request of members of -the staté board of health, have béen analyz- ed and reported to be suitable for drink- ing purposes. Some weeks ago, mém- bers of the board came through Put- nam and went to Roscland lake, the source of the city's water supply. It was on one of the warmest days and the lake was well filled with bathers. Following this visit the request for samples of the water were made. The samples were taken at the pumping station at Harrisville. The water sent for analysis had run through the filter beds. It is believed that complaintg were made by citizens that persons were bathing in Roseland and that a request was made to have the matter investi- gated. In all probability this only Bathing place will not néw be cl/osed,l this year at léast. All over this little northeast cornmer of the Nutmeg state and ciear 6ver into the Bay state, in Southbridge and Webster, to be exact, the dyed-in-the-woo! bas: ball fans are talking about but one thing—the coming of the Loston Amer- icans to Grosvenordale for an exhibition game Sunday afternoon. And Manager McDermott guaraniees that it is the regular Red Sox first string outfit, in- cluding Karr, Walters, Mclnnes, Mc- Nally, Foster, Vitt, Harry Hooper, Shang and Menosky. Manager Tom will of course strengthen up a little and will have either Regier of Pittsfield or Dolan of Portland, Me, on the bench to suc- ceed Davies should it be. necessary to take him out at any stage of the game. {The North Grosvenordale grounds will see” the largest crowd in their history if the day proves pleasant. For miles around the fans will gather and ar- rangements are béing made to handle scveral thousand spectators. While big leaguers have been seen from time to time, B Ruth and Ty Cobb for in- stance, in Putim and hereabouts, this is the first time that a major league ag- |zregation as a unit has evér invaded this semi-rural district. They will find a great reception awaiting them and will also find that Manager McDermott has assembled a base ball team that will make them go their paces. The governors of the Futnam Coun- try Club have voted to plow up, extend and reseed thé putting green near the club house. In the meantime the wo- men golfers will use the ninth gréen and | will have full right of way every Fri- day afternoon. It has been suggested that driving and approaching matches should be addéd to the putting matches and prizes for, these new features will be offered by interested club members, The July ringer contest was won by Ernest C. Morse with a score of 35 for the best selécted nine noles. This score is 3 below par. Morse will hold the silver cup until some player turns in a lower best score. The commiittee is arranging for Labor Day and a match <5 is under consideration. The captains Dbetween two teams of all Putnam play- of the two teams will be E. C. Morse and C. 1. _Dean. They will chooge their players and - make the match as even a spossible. The losing side will furn- ish a support for all club members. Theré was interest here in the an- nouncement. from Webster that Septem- ber 15th, Harry L. Nado, executive sec- retary of the' Webster-Dudley Chamb- er of Commerce, will end his duties with that organfzation; “whére he has been the past ‘three yedrs. Mr. Nado lived in Putnam for a num- ber of years. He was at the time a clerk at the Putram Inn. Later he -went to Worcester, where he ywas connected with the advertising department’ and later with the circulation department of a morning newspaper. ‘Wozcester Mr. Nado went to | ‘Webster Where ‘he has since held the office from which he now resigns to ac- cept a similar one in Greenwich, this state. The change is an adyancement. It is In a larger city, at a larger sal- afy, and cafries with it head of a credit department that the chamber of com- merce of Greenwich maintains. Mr. Nado is a graduate of Killingly high school, Danielson, class of 1907, the Alexander Hamilton Institue, and the American - City Bureau summer school, attending the last named school for secrétaries a year ago that he might amplify his knowledge of this work. Mr. Nado marriéed a Putnam girl, Miss Jane Donovan. They have two children. The family will move to Greenwich where Mr. Nado has been to confer with officials of the association and to look ovér the field. The Ballads, one of the pioneer fami- lies in this section of the state, held the annual reunion Thursday at Nichols’ grove, West Thompson, Ballards from far and near and of all ages gathered in the pines, for picnic luncheon. There was singing, gamés and a. gen- erai good time. Miss Ruth Child of Putnam wag elected historian for neéxt yeéar. The history for the yéar as read by Pearle M. Gifford, of Quinebaug, follows: “Possibly at no time in the History of these reunions has their significance been more fully brought before us than now. A reunion, and especially of thé many branches of a large family, does and should mean sométhing more than a picnic. We have experienced in thé pear just past, and the few preceding it. conditions which ar seldom witnessed in one generation. The departure of some and the advént of new-comers to take their places put upon us all a re- sponsibility, in that these reunions and the better binding of family ties may exert an influence that may lead these new-comers, to pur and upright living." The historian then reported 2 births, marriages and 4 deaths during the year. LEFFINGWELL Mrs. Grace K.
