When nearly opposite the Harborside school houss, two men jumped aboavd his run- ning board and demanded the driver to turn his car to the north. Upon turn- ing around Smith saw a pistol e at his ear. He then turnad his car in the roadway which leads to the nortn, up Into the road leading by the Collins place. Near the old stone house which ~was formerly used as a barn, tne two men demanded Smith to turn over what he had on him. Smith put up a fight, tut was soon laid unconscious by beinz bit on the side of his head with a black jack. Upon gaining conscijusness he found his gold wateh and chain missing all his papers and credentials and money gone. He had a bad swelling on his head. Judge Pike on Wampasset Point was notified and in ‘urn notified the police all along the line to be on the watch for the two hold-up men. The po- lice have a good description of them and are working on the case There have been several e when fake solicitors and collectors have visited Westerly on some vretenze or oth- er and raised considerable money before they have been apprehended. In order © protect the public from being swindled further, the advisory committee of the board of trade will furnish all solicitors tor a worthy cause, with proper credea- Uals and the endorsement on these per- ses of late mits will be signed by Thomas Lerry, shairman There have been about six new con- ductors trying out on the Groton & Weet- erly division of the trolley line during the last three weeks.

There is some little talk about making needed repairs at the bridge ' at White Roc When the franchise was granted for the Shore Lin tome into Westerly it was speci tranchise that the trolldy should maintain and keep in ditlon the White Rock struc company safo con- which o all vehicles. A year ago last fall the rolley company tried to abandon the structure after operation csisd between Westerly and Norwich in July, 1919, the tompany then offered the oridge fo the town of Westerly. The town council vot- »d to accept the bridge providad the town of Stonington would take like action but he deed to the structure has never been accepted Last September the vehicle secticn of he bridge was uns many plank ng rotted. The bridge was clo: he town of Westerly at that time was barred across the Rhode °nd. The bars were removad by one and the signs whiéh “varned persons hat the bridge had been closed to pub- travel were torn down A lit- le later the town of Stonington voted to and Island i also lose the Connecticut end of tha bridge and a fence was placed across the Con- necticut approach. A part of the fence Is still standing. The sign reads, “This highway closed by vote of th> town of Stonington. Signed “Selectman.” It ap- appears from the way the sizn Is signed that the bridge v closed by one of the selectman and not by ull.
