Norwich Bulletin Newspaper, July 22, 1922, Page 8

Fifty years ago Norwich had a se- tles of robberies, large and small, the thieves in every case being caught by the police soon after the thefts were reported. A singular coincidence is that Nor- wich in 1872 was sweltering under the worst heat wave of the season, fust as the city is this week. THer- ‘mometers then read 50 and better, similar readings being made here Tuesday. Other happenings of the week are recorded in the files of the Bulletin for the week as follows: Monday, July 15, 1872—Some weeks wgo H. H. Potter, of Norwich Town found a colored boy. thirteen years »f age, without friends or money, and sharitably employed him to work on his farm. Yesterday while the famly were all absent from the house, the boy took a valuable gold Watch own- »d by Mr. Potter, from a bureau draw- er, and deliberately smashed it with s stone, throwing the fragments away. The boy, who was born in jail, promg ises to do credit to his maternity. He was committed to the reform school. The recent successful voyages of the New London Sealers has given the business mighty impetus. Six vessels at New London and one at Stoning- ton are fitting for the South Shet- lands, and will sail soon. It is re- membered that only a few years ago one vessel that had been out eleven months brought in a fine catch, the skippers quarter amounting to about $100,000. The engravings of Selou’s pictures of Ancient and Modern Jerusalem, for the reading room have arrived and will be hung when they have been appropriately framed. Tuesday, July 16, 1872—The Mon- treal News speaking of the approach- Ing visit of Norwich Masons says. Co- lumbian Commandery, No, 4, K. T., of Norwich, Cenn., U. 8. A., will visit this city, arriving on the 18th of Septe: ber, remaining two days. We promise them a good time. The knights are CUTICURA HEALS RASH ON BACK Spread ToNeckand Arms, Itched. and Burned.

The Commandery is one of the finest and most exclusive bodies in the state and as the mem- bers respect jovialty as well as gal- lantry their excursion will probably be one to be remembered in history.

The principal of the ‘Free Academy has announced ‘that the failure of the mausicians to appear ‘at the gradua- tion exercises was owing to a misun- derstanding in regard to time.

Some, articles in the window of the store, No. 6 Shetucket street, occu- pied by C. Gebhardt & Co., took fire last evening from a gas burner.

He endea- vored to borrow some money from Charles J. Carew who was alone in the office. Mr. Carew refused and short- ly afterwards locked the office and leaving the key in its usual place and went home. On his return he found that the office had been enter- ed, and the safe opened, a check for $200 payable to bearer, and $100 in currency and small bills belonging to the company and Senator Bucking- +ham, missing. The police were noti- fied and the man was soon arrested as he was leaving the American House. On being searched $30 was found ©on him, and identified. The man was lock- ed up.

Many Norwich people are to aid the Second Rhode Island volunteers cele- brate the eleventh anniversary of the battle of Bull Run, at Rocky Point next Monday. The American band will furnish the music for the day. Tuesday and Wednesday tock the credit of being the hottest days of the season, showers during the days fail- ing "to cool the atmosphere, instead seeming to add to the heat. The air was intolerably close and oppressive. The lower end of Shetucket street is being transformed by the remov- al of the lofty ledge on the north side. The stone is being used in the Wash- .

When you see a man wth a rope ladder and a life preserv- er taking a tearful farewell of his wife and family, you may know he is going to “run across the street” to a neighbor: The work of building the abutment for the widening of Main street at Washington street corner has begun. An inebriated African, drunk clear through from his coat binding to his spinal column, walked ‘into the river at the coal ‘wharf yesterday and up- on being rescued lifted up his voice and wept.
