DANIELSON ‘Through their attorneys, Searls. Rus- Sunday % appeared that only offi- cholumnrmiuon by the: United States menate is required to complete the de- talls of the formalitles connected with the appointment of E. H. Keach as post- master, to succeed Raymond Allen, who has been postmaster for several years, following another long period of ser- vice as assistant postmaster. 5 Mr. Keach is one of Danielson’s best known citizens, head of the firm of E. H. Keach and Company and has for for many years been connected with the mercantile activities of Danielson. It is understood that Mr. Keach, when ap- pointed, will incorporate his business and so relieve himself of his present business responsibilities as to allow of his giving practically his entire time to the postal service. % Mr. Keach has been a prominent mem- ber of the republican party in Daniel- son for many years, has represented the town in the legislature and has been a senator from the Twenty-éighth sena- torial district, of which Killingly is a part. In the legislature his a_/blllt{es were recognized and he served bn im- portant committees and was a factor in the enactment of some of the most im- portant legislation that has gone co e statote books in the past decade. He has been a resident here since his early youth and it is forecasted that his administration as postmaster will be marked by efficlency and a constant ef-| fort to.give Danielson the very best pos- sell and Bradford, Arthur King of Hyde Park, Mass.,, and Mrs. Georgianna King Smith of Putnam, have appealed from the probate court’s allowance of t sale of the King homestead on Grove strest and from the aMowanico of the final account of Alphonse 8. King, exe- cutor of the will of Nelson King. Ail are children and heirs of the late Nel- son King. The appellants allege that the property was sold without proper advertising, without sufficiently trying to secure a purchaser and that.a higher price might have been obtained. Tt is also alleged that soon after the sale was made the property was deeded to the executor. The appeal is returnadle to the superior court. Funeral services for James B. Ta tem, pioneer handle manufacturer of this section, who died early Thursday morning at his residence on. Grove street, was held ¢rom the home, Satur- day afternon, Burlal was in the Grove street cemetery. If citizens of Putnam, both young and old, who enjoy ice skating, are to hdve an opportunity for this sport something 'will have to be done émme- diately. The ibest available skating pond s the so-called- Perry's -meadow. This pond covers a large area,. is ' a flowed meadow and not deep and is an ideal place to skate.
