A the The old tree with its markings that run | from 1803 to 1868 was discovered by Wil lam F. Hill of this city when he was tramping over a wooded section of the 150 acres in the farm to show it to a Prospective buyer before it was purchased by its present owner, Joseph M. Griffing. It seems probable that when the cary. ings were made the tree must have tood |- out conspicuously«in a cleared lot, where it made an inviting appeal to more than one man ywho inseribed on it his initiais and the date, but it is now hidden in the Woods and was only discovered by chance as Mr. Hill, who pointed it out to the present owner and impressed him with the importance of preserving it as long as it lives. The big beech is five and one- half feet in circumference and is in such a healthy state that it looks as if it would stand for many years longer. The carven record:begins with the let- ters E. A. R. and the date Aug. 9, 1803, underneath them. It ends with W. A. R., 1868, ‘and includes five dates between. Much of the carving is heavily grown over with moss. which has to be scraped off to show the letters and figures. Ten years after the earliest date ap- pears G. J. R, 1813, and another carver cut into the bark the figures 1817 without Initials. W. R. carved these initials in 1850 and again in 1860, while W. A. R., 1868, is the latest date. Alongside this Is the well defined figure of a turtle. The only full name cut into the bark 1s that of J. A. Burdicl, preceded by 1854, and followed by the figures 1858. Besides the fizure of the turtle, which is close to the gropnd, as it were just crawling up, there apnear on another part of the tree a duck’s head. a grotesque carving of a man much like Indian carv- ings, and a curious figure with 2 head like 2 bird Most of the carvings are at medium height from the ground, but in one place the letters L. W. F. appeac more than six feet up on the trunk. Ancient Cemetery, In another part of the Richmond farm is to be seen a small cemetery blot in which the two oldest headsiones date back to before the Revolution. It cupies a knoll in what is now a mowing lot. Tall grass almost hides the half dozen headstones from view, a small dead apple tree- spreads its bare branch- es over the summit of the knoll, and the NEW CEMENT.

Deacon Ddn- ison was in his $0th,vear when he gied, July 6,-1831. On the stone {s the follow- ing verse: X My flesh shall slumgber in the ground Till the last trumpet's joyful sound, ‘Then burst the chains with sweet * surprise, 5 And in my Saviour's image rize. The deacon’s wife was in her §5th year at her death. which occurred Aug. 17, 1827, about four yvears before her hus- band died. Her tombstone also bears a verse which is as follows: God my Redeemer lives, And often from the skits Looks down and watches all my dust Tiil He =hall bid it rise. Old House on Farm. The farm house on the place likewise dates back one hundred years or more and still contains the big old fashioned stone chimney in the middle of ¥he house, affording three fireplaces on each of the two floors. The big 3-foot fireplzsa in the kitchen is of a kind to delight the hedrt of the antiquarian as it is still fully equipped with the original crane and pot hangers, which Mr. Richmond, ‘who is now ov 30, remembers that his mother used. The house is about 8 miles out from this city on a road from Preston City to Patchaug, COMPENSATION AWARD TO TAFTVILLE, MILL WORKER After’ 5 hearing before Commisstoner 3 ¥in e workmen's compea- sation eiwime OB Alexandria Jajisnica of 28 Cewe stgoet. against the Poneman Co., @ missioner has approved an award ef €ompensation to her of 35 a A new cement road for this stretch of highway will be an improvement that will have the cordiel endorsement of all who have to use f4 road between Nor- wich . and Willimmstye, for this sectio has been practically n mudhole at tima in the winter asd spring.

LOBSTERS IN CONNECTICUT INCREASE IN TWO YEARS The number of lobsters in Connecticut waters has greatly increased in the past two years, according to several lobster men who conferred with Superintendent John W.
