Roswell: Gazette. Tuesday, December 21, 1880. Fairfield County Items. DARIEN. ' A serious collision occurred here on Satur- day evening about seven O‘clock. It was not on the railroad, but near the bridge,a lit- tle ways from the Congregational church. A. wagon with two men coming from towards Noi‘wallr, driving furiously, ran into another breaking both wagons and seriously injuring both of the men. It is said they are residents of Rowayton, and the impression prevails that whiskey held the lines, or rather con- trolled the man who held them. It IS Sflid also, that this man was, during the late carn- paign, captain of a company of Bol’filn White not a thousand miles away. or course the Writer does not know this to be a faCt- BI“ bad whiskey makes unsafe drivers and un- successful captains, as this COIIISIOD and ”-16 last campaign clearly prove. . The Congregational Sunday School Wlll have a Christmas entertainment on Saturday evening. They have a good programme and no doubt the occasion will be one of great interest. All are invited. The Methodist Church will have theirs on Monday evening, the 27 th. They also prom- ise a pleasant and rare treat. Admission, 10 cents, for the benefit of the school. Mrs. Solomon Slagle’s funeral was attend— ed at the Methodist Church last Sunday morning. She was buried at’ Greenwich. This is a sad bereavement to the husband and family. Her disease was pneumonia and she was sick but a few days. The family have the sympathy'of the community in their great sorrow and loss. The little missionary society known as the Sunbeams will have their annual festival on Thursday evening of this wEek at the resi- dmce of M. S. Mather. They are to have among other nice things the Shadow Panto mime. All are invited ; admisssion, fifteen cents. Mr. Bradford was greeted again with full houses last Sunday and Monday evenings- His talk on the life of Dora Patterson was greatly enjoyed by all present. He showed that her remarkable career was the direct fruit of the Christian religion, and urged all to purchase and read her memoirs, as publish- ed in the Seaside Library, No. 733 Next Sunday evening Mr. B. will.speak on the Unpardonable Sin. This he will do by especial request. It is _a solemn and thrilling subject, and one important to understand. Inferring from the past we may expedt lfn earnest discourse. REDDIN G. On that bitterly cold day, Friday of last week. AGerman, who resides at the center was tried before Justice Shaw on the charge of selling intoxicating liquors without a license. was acquitted. Sufficient evidence was not presented to warrant his condem- nation. Hard colds, often accompanied with sore throat, abound. Bertha, daughter of Mr. C D. Meeker, aged one fear and twenty-four‘days, died last Thursday, it is alleged of diphtheria. There was a well attended donation party fit the house of Mrs. Hangh on Thursday evening. It was a substantial benefit to the family. WEST STRATFOIQ). John O'Kanc was arrested last Tuesday on charges of assault, drunkeness and breach of the peace. He was tried before Justice Cuz- ner and was fined six dollars and costs. in . default of payment of which he was sent to jail. Diagracefnl doings are reported as taking place'in a saloon on Lake street; strange it is that the authorities allow such a place to exist. , ' The Court of Burgesses met on Wednesday evening last; after disposing of a number of bills that were presented for payment, and instructing the Warden to negotiate a loan . for the use of the Bomugh, it adjourned sine din. The new Court will hold its first meeting on Wednesday evening, Jan. 5th. In the Gazurrir’s Washington correspond— ence last week, allusion was made to the affair between the Hon. Galusha A. Grow. of Penn, and Keit, of South Carolina. We have been asked by a number of friends to request the GAZETTE to re-print an account of the affair. ' It is annouriced that a petition will be presented to the next General Assembly, in favor of the annexation- of this place to Bripgeport. But very few West Stratford people are in favor of it; they don't want “city airs." The holiday trade is quite brisk amoug our merchants. The Debating Society is busy with the question, “Which is the more destructive, fire or water ?" The rush to see the Ghost Show in Bridgeport, exceeds that of last. winter. The Bridgeport Ice' Company has a large force employed in filling their capacious ice houses in this place. The first anniversary of the opening of the Faith Mission of Bridgeport, took place on Saturday evening last. The serviceswere conducted by the East Bridgeport Praying Band. W _____ DANBURY. Hat shipments are increasing. Evidences of thrift—several new being erected. Flora Sayers has resigned the leadership of the Methodist choir in order to accept a similar position at Newark, N. J. The Reform Association has put out a new transparency—“Come home, brother, come home. The Temperance Reform Associa- tionl invites You.” Some says tobacco never hurts a man, but Johh‘Ryah had a shoulder put out of‘joinl. by a case of the stuff falling upon him— nothing but Conn. tobacco, at that. ‘ The largest Sunday congregations in Danbury appear to turn out to witness operations upon the new railroad. A fine chance for open-air preachers The Agricultural Society re-elccted the old board of officers Mrs. Chas. Chapman was seriously burned, barns are recently, her clothing catchingfirc from the. stoly. - uring the trial week Danbury sent off 5,946 letters and 2,086 postal cards., Lacy 6: Downs hope to begin work in their new factory by Jaii.'1st. / It takes half an hour to sound a fire alarm in Dnnbury, says the News, and the firemen ' sometimes return from the fire before the bell rings. John Elligott drove his wife and children out of the house, and fired his pistol several times to scare them. He had all the fun for $3 and costs, which he paid like a man. John K2108, 3150. had a family racket, breaking furniture, crockery, doors, abusing his wife, etc., all for $2 and costs. STAMFORD. Postmaster Daskam and his assistants, the first Week in December, handled 7,472 letters and 1,159 postal cards, with over 3,000 pieces of 2d, 3d and 4th class matter, making alto~ gether 11,053 pieces. _ James Donahue won a $25 wagon by running four and one half miles in 21 min utes, reports the Advocate. » The Borough people want to amend the Borough cilurlei‘ so as to extend limits and confer power to lay Sewers. ‘ JUS=‘[JII B. Hoyt has promised to give $2,500 to at Richmond; (Va.) College, and the same amount to 3. Richmond Colored In— stituie. G. W. A. Jenkins has purchased the Al- bert See] y homestead property. The reruore Cll‘CuIalcd so industriously, rc- fiecting on the integrity of County Commis- sioner Wright,may not after all,be well found- ed. It is certainly unfair t6 condemn the gentleman so unsparingly as some, papers are wont to do, until there is stronger evidence than that yet appearing as to his guilt. One thing is certain, the funds, if any are missing Will be made good to the county. as Mr. Wright’s bondsman is one of the solid men of Greenwich, and able to pay ten times the amount of the bonds given, if necessary. With this fact in view, will it not be better to llOld on a little and give the commissioner and, his associates a reasonable time to, straighten out what may appear crooked in their accounts? - _———.—u.y—.————— Matching .the family purse against the IBMIIYBLOCRID}; is the prevailing domestic recreation Just now.

Frederick Sherwood, died in New York, Thursday, 15, in the 20th year ofhis age. He had been a clerk for some years in D. A. Salmon d: Co's dry goods store, and was an honest, intelli- gent and exemplary person,—one. of whom all spoke well, and whom all sought to asso- ciate with. His sudden departure startled, and cast a gloom own this entire community. The circumstances of his death are nearly as fol- lows: He visited New York Monday after- noon. Dec. 13, to see about a position in a mercantile ghouse to which he had been recommended, and to make, a few pur. chases for his employers here. He had in. tended to return the same day, but hinted that he might be detainedtill Tuesday.0n the afternoon of that day a telegram was received stating that M Sherwood was at St.Vinccnt’s hospital lying in an inscnsible condition. Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Sherwood, of Green’s Farms, have had their" Christmas present a little in advance of Christmas,—~it was a 9 pound baby. Capt. Sherwood, his father, and Mr. Sal- mon, his employer started at once for New York, and there learned that the young man stopped Monday night at Earle’s hotel, retir- ing at about eleven debris; that at twelve Tuesday, a hotel attendant tried to enter the room, and failin to arouse the occupant re— ported the fact the clerk, when the door of the room was forced, and the young man discovered lyhig in bed, unconscious from the effects of gas from the burner. Aid was summoned and Mr. Sherwood was taken to St. Vincent’s hospital, where every means was adopted with a view to résuscitation but without avail. He lingered till Thursday showing no sign of retIirning animation, and passed awayat four o’clock in the morning. While the facts as to his death cannot be known, it is believed that he turned the gas down so as to leave a dim light in the mum. and that by some means the light was extin— guished after he fell asleep, and the room being closed tightly, there could be no outlet for the slowly escaping gas, which produced insensibility and finally death. The remains reached “Vestport Thursday the funeral took place Sunday from Memorial Mr. Williams, officiating. The church was filled to its utmost capacity, There was real sorrow in every heart, even the ministir manifesting agitation during the brief but glowing eulogy pronounced by him. Messrs . Hubbell, Belts and Green of Norwslk, and Staples, Woodworth and Taylor of Westport —all intimate friends of the deceased, acted as pall bearers, and the burial took place in Willow Brook Cemetery. PAUL. BRIDGEPORT. Thomas L. Bartholomew has been elected cashier of the City National Bank to fill the vacancy caused by the death of Mr. Fayer— weather. Josepfl Strange broke an arm on the Ele- vated railroad, N. Y., while saving a lady passenger from falling when the cars started. Two members of the First Presbyterian church are going to Central Africa as mis- sionaries. While dredging for oysters, off Bridgeport, Wednesday, from the- sloop Dart, J emes P- Hert, of New Haven, fell overboard and was drowned. Body not recovered. The Wheeler & Wilson company are, said to be making 400 machines per day of one kind alone. Friend W. Smith represented the Bridge port Board of Trade at the meeting of the National Board in Washington. Captain Edward N. Goodwin, of Bridge— port, died of diphtheria, aged 60 years. His son, aged 10, died on ,Tuesday, and the double funeral took place Sunday. Captain Goodwin was First Lieutenant in the twenty.fourth regiment, C. V., in the war. He has been captain of Company E. Fourth regiment,,since 1868, and very popular as an officer and a man. When Lieutenant of his company he attarcted special attention at Regimental and Brigade drills, and was conceded to be one of the ablest officers in Regiment. As an officer he was firm, but kind. always performing his duties quietly and promptly, and never evineing the slight- est desire to “show ofi." Every man in the Regiment had a kindly feeling and good word for him, although he made perhaps fewer personal acquaintances than any other officer of his rank. He seemed to have no desire for promotion, and it is said twice rc- fused to accept the position of Major. Mr. S. M. Burham, of Saugatuck, must have a large and remarkably fine herd of cattle. We hear frequently of his purchase of expensive animals, now comes the an- nouncement that he has bought a Jersey cow for which he paid $825. —-—“:". . That old landmark in New York.

The Slralford Shoal lightship was sold at auction at Staten Island last. week for $1,010. She is about seventy five feet long, and was first placed an Stratford Shoal in 1838, when as One of the lighthouse board says. the light. house establishment of the United States had neither system nor science. The lightship broke adrift in a storm in Febru‘ary, 1857, and in1866 she again parted her moorings. The old craft has drifted all over the sound, thumped for days on the rocks, been imbed— ded in the ice, and run into many times, but seemed to bear a charmed, life. She will probably be used for short coasting trips. .__—_+..._...—..
