The records of the town of Stonington which have been preserved about 260 years, of since the incorporation of the town in 1666, are in three large safes fn the town clerk’s office in the borough. The records are in excellent condition, as are also the records of the probate court and the assessors of taxes, all in the custody of Judge Elias B. Hinckley who has guarded these records for the past 30 years, serving the public in a most faithful manner. The town clerk’s office has for many years been located in a two-story frame building, and just before the war a building fireproof and adéquate to eare for the valuable records was planned by one of the residents here whose name was withheld as domor, un- til the cost of labor, and materials should be lowered. So the plans which were drawn and placed on exhibition remain in picture only. It is feit that the val- usblé récords should have adequate pro- tection. It is the desire of every citizen to have a fireproof building with modern fireproof vaults instead of ordinary steel safés to safeguard these valuable rec- oras. One of thesé safes has painted on the front a fine picture of the old Wada- wanuck house that stood in what is now kriown as Wadawanuck square. This bullding the large piece of land upon which it was located Was owned by John A. Bufnham of Boston, Samuel D. Babcoek of New York, and Courtland P. Dixon of Brooklyn. When the building Wwas raised many yéars ago the land was given to the borough of Stonington for use as & public park with the stipula- tion that it should be so preserved for- ever with the provision, however, that a portion of the land be sct aside for a building for a cifeulating library and reading room. This building was erect- ed and endowed by the late Erskine Phelp§, a native of Stonington, who re- sided in Chicago. Eilas B. Hinckley, who has presided in the town pfobate court and cared for the tax records, has been tqwn clerk for 32 years, and town tréasorer and asses- sor of taxes for the past 30 years.
