NORWICH BULLETIN, SATURDAY, NOV. 25, 192z e e ————— WEST In the district court Friday afternoon with Jodge O. H. Williams presiding the case of Helen Cekela Hawkins was heard. The damages Iid in her writ was $500. Her husband al- 50 brought suit for loss of his wife’s service and places his damage at $200. The cases were tried together. Mrs. _Cekela testified that on Oct. 3, of this vear, she called Mr. Hawkins who is a loomfixer at the Bailey mill where she is employed to fix her loom. She testified that the defendant struck her in the! side and inflicted a painful wound. She | sald she was obliged to give up work for two weeks and was treated aimost eon- tinuously during that time by Dr. Knefr of Hope Valley. Dr. Knerr testified to treating the wo- man for a small bruise on her right side. He says that she was not confin- ed to her bed during the period he was treating her. Hawkins took the stand and testified that he answered the plain- tiff's call for assistance as soon as possi- ble and he was bending down to fix the loom he accidentally bumped against her. He said he had no .ooccasion to| \la.n( to injure hér in any way and that it purely accident. Edward father-in-law of the defendant, testified that he saw Mrs. Cekela carrying her baby on the rnoon of the day she was injured. Judge Williams held thie case for advisement.

The committee for the next entertain- ment were appointed as follows: Mr. and Mrs. Herbert Tift, Mrs. W. B. Montgomery, Miss Lucy Miner and Louis Latham. There is the msual small talk st thiz time by the very many in the bor- ough, who once more would like to at- tend one of the old fashioned chicken shoots that used to be so popular hi Jewett City on Thanksgiving day. Now that there are so many fine marksmen in the Ashland Fish and Game Asso- ciation, an old time shoot would fur- nish unrivalled sport. In these tourna- ments that were once so common here. there was no element of barbarity, for the chickens reposed in safety and com- fort in nearby coops. J. S. Jeffers and Henry Barber were two of the men always relied upon to arrange for the shoots which were held on the Spearmint brook Iot, back of the present site of the A. B. Burleson & Co. yarn mill. Here 10 rods were carefully measured off, then a board four feet high, bearing a 3-inch ring of white paper, was set up. ‘Ten cents a shot was the price. No shots were to be used finer than the regulation No. 6. The lucky man that could stick three shots in the 3-inch ring at 10 rods could help himself to the chickens in the coop. On a still day, with some of the town’s famous marksmen at the shoot, and when too many birds were being won, certain guns were barred from the shoot. The late 'W. C. Bliven, used to be allowed to win . three chick- ens with his Parker, still owned. in town, then he and his gun were barred. Henry Carpenter used to .go, with his ol Civil war musket, with a barrel six fect long. He was required to stand three feet back of the line, because of special shooting qual attributed to the zum, on account of its extreme length of barrel. At ome shoot on Thanksgiving day 1884, teventy-three shots were fired before a bird was won. F. J. Miner stuck two shots in the ring eleven times In succession. James Hopkins, this same day put 11 shots m the ring with his left barrel, and nine with his right. A diary kept by a boy, who was there to see, proves the fig- ures. At one of these shoots a boy, still living around this section, thought his gun scattered to_much. He ran home and cut a finger off his mother's glove filled it up with shot, sewed-the end t" gether, and loaded his old muskrat we the prepared charge. The finger burs: too quick. The alert eve of Mr. Jgffers saw the piece of leather blowing away. There was some talk of applying a bar- rel stave to the boy, but he was a fine sprinter,” 3 A union Thanksgiving service will be held in the Congregational church at 7 p. m., addressed by Rev.
