CITY OF WEST NORWALK.
Geo. Weed, son of Isaac Weed, Esq., is
very sick. _ .
Miss Netta Ross, while sojourning in New
York, was taken suddenly ill and is now ser-
iously sick. Her mother has gone to attend
her and Mrs. Kellogg and Mrs. Benedict have
also volunteesd to go and care for her.
The ladies of the Union Chapel will hold
their annual Supper at the Chapel on Wed-
nesday evening next, and will be happy to
see their friends, old or young, from the
Borough or City. The ride over is very at-
tractive, and the ladies who are interested in
the success of the undertaking, are. worthy
of aid. . . .
Mr. Knapp has moved into the new house
which he so recently purchased. ‘
Soon after the first Friday evening concert
on Prospect Hill, about half-past ten at night,
an alarm was given that there was a fire.
The news spread through the city with great
rapidity. ' Some _from their dwellings thought
it to be the Sash and Blind factory of Ray-
mond Johnson, or Mill of F. Bates. Others
thought it to be the house of Mrs. F. A.
Selleck, or Selleck’s barn. Nearing the loca-
tion indicated by the light, it was found to
be the Mill of W. R. Lockwood, occupied by
John Weed. The flames already had full
control and it was useless to try to save it
but have it demolished as soon as possible to
save the barn aforesaid. Messrs.‘ W. F.
Mather and Edgar Smith propos'ed.'saving' -
the Water wheel if possible, and succeeded
in forcing open the gate, letting on the water,
saving the wheel, which was the only thing
not consumed: As no fire was used there,
there is ‘no doubt that it was set on fire byan
incendiary, hoping to destroy it and the
barn,~as the doors were found open.
In. these days many curious devices and
plans are formed to abstract money from the
unwary. An innocent countryman goes to
some large city, like New York, for instance,
on a visit or to purchase, and the'chances are
that he will meet some “friend” who has not
seen him before in a long time, and his pre-
tended friend only stays with him long
enough to, by some trick or game, relieve
him of his pocket book. Not only are
countrymen and the inexperienced “taken
in" to use the phrase, but the most exper-
ienced are sometimes made victims, if not by
tricks or» games, by fraud or some other
means. A cunning but curious piece of
knavcry was played in the City of Brooklyn
some time since. The story was told to - us
by one of the parties concerned, and we give
it to your readers thinking it might interest
them as it did us. A gentleman owned a
house on the outskirts of the city, the upper
part of which be rented to a well. to do and
much respected Jew family. They had
lived in the house about two months when
strange and mysterious, noises were heard in
thc night when the familics'had retired to .
rest. Doors would open and shut with a
bang, raps, knockings, and sometimes foot-
steps would be heard as though somebody
was treading lightly through the house, and
the Jew family said they had heard groans
and strange noises. The owner of the house
whose business kept.him away from home
sometimes for weeks at a time only laughed
at his wife, who was a timid woman, when
she first told him about it, but that same
night he w‘as awakened by hearing the parlor
door shut with a bang and footsteps .rapidly
walking the hall way. He got out of bed as
he could without waking his wife, and hur-
ried through the dining-room into the hall
just in time to see a figure of a woman dress-
ed in white disappear through one of the
doors leading into. a room occupied by his
tenant. He said nothing about what he had
seen and heard that night, but in the morn-
ing he asked his wife more particularly con-
cerning thenoises she had heard. She said
the family up stairs were the first to hear
these strange noises, and that for two or three
. weeks she had heard them. They had told
,her they believed the house was haunted and
that they were afraid to live in the house,
and were going to move as soon as they could
find a good place. She told her husband she
did not believe in ghosts, but there was
something very strange about the house.
They further told her that they would advise
her husband to sell the plate, for if it got
noised around that the house was haunted it
would “depreciate? in value, and he couldn’t.
get half ,what it was worth. She said the
neighbors, had heard about it, and that the
Jew family had told them, and when she was
asked about it she had told them what she
had heard. For two or three nights after
this the gentleman heard these noises. - What
they were for, he could not determine, but
that they were made by some person he had
no doubt, and their object he could not
imagine. He told a friend of the circum-
stance, and together they agreed to watch
and try and solve the mystery. One night
when everything was all still and quiet about
the house, the gentleman and his friend put
on their slippers and went into the front
parlor to watch. The parlor was so arranged
that it commanded a view of the stair-case,
and part of a large hall, in which a hall lamp
was left dimly burning. About midnight
they were startled by hearing knockings at
the head of the stairs, then arumbling sound ,
followed by a groaning kind of a noise, and
then all was still. They waited about half
an hour longer when they heard footsteps
and saw a figure dressed in white slowly de-
pcend the staircase. .When it got at the foot
of the stairs it stopped and seemed to listen,
and not hearing anything it proceeded direct-
ly towards the parlor door, and when it had
gotten within a few feet of the door it stop-
ped and took something from under its gar-
ments and rolled it across the hall floor
towards the stairs, which made a rumbling
noise, then it stepped quickly into the parlor
and was going scram the room when one of
the gentlemen stepped noiselessly behind and
put hill hand heavily on its shoulder. It
uttered a little scream of fright and tried to
t away, but the gentleman told her to keep
still, for it _was, a woman's, voice, and all
would be well. The other gentleman opened
a door leading into a back parlor where a
bright light was burning, when they dis.
covered that their. prisoner was a daughter
of the Jew Slim “P stairs. " They took the
girl into the back parlor and asked. her what
she meant by 311011. “”98" ““9”" She
begged for them to let her go and she would
tell everything. They promised ‘9 let her
go, when she told them that her father‘made
her do it'. She said-her father wanted it re-
ported that the house was haunted: and
:51
' wanted to scare the owner‘s wife and chil-
dren so that they would prevail upon him ‘0
it was‘hauntcd he would have hard Work to
find a buyer, and her father thought by this
means he cO'uld buy it for half what It was
worth. The Jew family moved the next
day.

WESTON. ,
A most beautiful Sabbath! Though it
looked rather doubtful in the morning it
cleared off by noon and remained perfectly
charming, especially at night,when the bright
moonlight called out a great many perambu-
lators. The highways and lanes and cosy
spots were full of them enjoying the truly
fine summer evening. ‘
A pleasing incident occurred on Saturday
at the Jarvis' Summer Resort. Mr. Francis
Street brought from the city some splendid
bouquets and presented them in the name of
the Congregational Church Society to five
young ladies, who with great generosity have
for the last month volutarily taken charge of
the musical part of the service. Mr. Street
certainly deserves the thanks of the Society
for his disinterested and considerate kindness.
' The church on the bill was very full on
Sunday. Music, as usual, excellent.
Mr. and Chas. B. Hotcbkiss and lady, of
Bridgeport, and their friends Mr. and Mrs.
Gray, of Newark, N. J., spent Sabbath at
the Institute Hotel. "
The beautiful flowers which adorned the
table of the Congregational Church were pre-
pared by Miss Annie Coley, Miss Sarah Brad-
ley and Miss Ida Crossman. ,
. We were sorry to learn but are now glad
to record that Mr. Edgar Scribner, our es-
teemed townsman, who was taken sick. on
Friday, is in a fair way of recovery.
There are so many strangers in town that
one is involuntarily reminded of some large,
fashionable watering place. Mr. Jarvis had
175 over Sunday. And though many houses-
have their guests, and there are but few that
have no company, still they come.
There was preaching in Deacon Coley’s old
homestead—Rev. Mr. Lubkert ofiiciating.
Protection Lodge, No. 199, is the name of

WESTPORT. . _
The 50111 anniversary of the marriage of
Rev. and Mrs. Z- Davenport, of Saugatuck
occurs Saturday August 17. It is proposed,
to celebrate the event, their “Golden Wed.
ding,” with appropriate ceremonies.
Mr. and Mrs. Hezekiah Lyon, start today,
(Monday) for Mt. Vernon, Ohio.
Friday James Nolan fell from an embank—
ment and broke one of his legs.
The Saugatuck Shooting Club were out for
practice Saturday. The range was ' 200
yards, the target being placed on the east
bank of the river near the ship yard, while
the shooting was from the west bank. _Win-
chestcr repeating arms were used. ‘ Some
fine shots were made.
Two squirrels were discovered in Christ
Church vestry room by the sexton Sunday
morning. No sooner had the outer door
been opened than the prisoners beat a hasty
retreat. It is not known how the squirrels
got into the church as the lower sash of the
windows are kept closed.
The cloud from which came the cyclone'
which devastated Wallingford Friday last, was
distinctly seen here. It was a marvellOusly
beautiful object. As the sun sank in the
west, its rays bathed. the clouds with all the
colors of a rainbow, and as it moved slowly
to the eastward, occasional flashes of light-
ning darted upward and beyond. On ac-
count of the cloud's distance, sounds of
thunder could not be heard, but many who:
saw it said, “a terrible commotion is prob-,
ably taking place somewherevbetween West-.
port and Boston." The news of next day
more than confirmed the truth of the state-
ment.
~ The ladies of Christ church have nearly-
perfected arrangements for their “Lawn
Party” which is to be held Wednesday even-
ing. The sum of 10 cents paid at the gate
admits to the grounds, which are to be deco-
rated and lighted with Chinese lanterns. Re-
freshments; of all kinds will be dealt out at
‘fair prices. A platform for dancing will be
erected, the Westport band furnishing music. ‘
Pleasant weather will insure success and a
fine time for every patron. ‘
Though Pioneer Hookdt Ladder Company
have disbanded, it is believed"‘der machine"
will have to go begging but a short time for a
company to step in and take charge of her.
The fierce south west wind of Friday
brought myriads of gnats and mosquitos into
the village and surrounding country. The
ladies complained of a torment which has _not
afflicted them hereabout for many a year.
As is well known Westport is a non-propa-
gating mosquito region. . .
The New England Spool company a
Saugatuck is running a full set of hands, and
with them is unable to keep up with orders.
Those who know what the old sign is
when it rains and the sun shines at the same
time as it did Sunday afternoon, .wili be kind
enough to keep shady, as bells were ringing
and many good people were on their way to
church. , ‘
The “Vigilante" made their excursion to
Long Island,"Wednesday, and returned in a
happy state of mind before nightfall. It was
a success in all respects. ,
The repairs now going on at Kelly’s mill,
owned by the First National Bank, will ren-
der that institution a desirable one for some
enterprising man. ' '
Both engine companies are indulging pleas.
ant thoughts in view of their coming visit to
Danbury, and the firemen’s parade.
Mr. L. Bradley, at the village hotel, sells
tickets to the Masonic excursion from Nor.
walk, Wednesday, Aug. 21st, by steamer J.
B. Schuyler. Many Westporters aiereported
as having decided to avail themselves of the
opportunity for a' day of pleasure, knowing,
as they do, under what auspices the excur-
sion is to be conducted. Rarely is it that a
trip embracing a sail on the Sound, -view of
New . York, Brooklyn, Staten Island and
Sandy Hook, {and three he: s'- sojourn at
Coney Island, are offered at the small price
of $1.50 for gentleman and lady.
The Wafporkr‘s allusion to a medal pre-
sented to us, has induced inquiry as to the
character of the gift. Natural difildence
impels us to silence, but it may not be im-
proper to say that the medal being metalic,
has intrinsic value representing exactly the
liberality of the giver. The presentation
was informal though public and in presence
of people of taste. No speeches were made,
but language which speaksloudcr thonwords
—sign language, asked, silently, if.the gift
was a “reward of merit.” -
It seems strange after the recent lies
rains, that streams run low and smile begin
to be dry.
Sunday, Rev. A. N. Lewis entered upon
his fourth year as rector of Memorial church.
In his sermon, after morning prayer, he re-
counted the work accomplished during his
labors among this people, showing its import-
ance, and making an exhibitxfsvorable as
compared with what clergymen have brought
about in neighboring church fields during the
same length of time. The congregation was
large and appreciative.
Prof. Huntington,-. of Trinity College,
Hartford, is a guest of Rev. James D. Coley.
Master Hall N. Jackson who recently cre-

~The danger as well as the inconvenience of

her wisdom to adopt of wearing highoheeled
boots is illustrated by the evidence given at

don, touching the death of a patient of that
institution who met with her death under the
following circumstances. _ The dewased, a
married woman, left her home in good health
on the 20th of January, and the same night
was brought home in a cab with ,a fractured
leg. The driver of the vehicle made no re-
mark as to how the injury hadbeen received,
bill. after asking for his fare, drove off. The
doomed. however. after removal to the hos-
pital stated that she was just stepping from
the carriage road when, Owing to her boots
having excessively high heels, she slipped
and fell. It is supposed she was run over,
as the injury she had received was of so ser-
ious a nature that amputation had to be per.
formed, and she died last week from ex.
haustion. The jury rendered a verdict of
“accidental death." The only wonder is
that such accidents are not of more frequent
occurrence.
