his meeting was called to order and
all read by Selectman Oscar Ray-
Md, after which John W. Mains was

m. The following resolution was
W by E. C. Csawell, after a short
. m of the call:
Resolved To organize a fire district
m 57 of the Public Acts of
tilt State of Connecticut. 1898.to ,
‘ known as theEsat Norwaik Fire District,
with limitaas described in the call.
William Worden was the first speaker,
and he waxed' eloquent and earnest
Inhh argument for the support of the
' department. He was willingto heads
‘ Inheription list with 85 if one hundred
others would contribute . the same
' amouuttoward the object.
Alta Mr. Worden had concluded, E.
C. Caswell repeated a story showing the
necessity of having a head of the depart-
,» mm He severely criticised Mr. Wor-
‘ . den in alluding to a subscription list, and
' said it would be absurd to try to support
a company in that manner.
‘ . Mr. Worden again took the floor. He
said he would give $10 if forty-nine
others would do likewise, but he did not
think persons living on the outskirts of
.the limits would listen to a. tax and help
support an organization that was not
within easy reach of their property, and
they would rather pay higher insurance
rates than be taxed for the district‘s sup
port. He then spoke of the matters in
general. and replied in vigorous lan-
guageto the personal criticism he had
meshed from Mr. Caswell. His retalia-
‘tion, however, was considered out of
.order by the Chair. During this time
there were many bursts of applause and
the majority seemed to be with Mr. Wur-
den in regard to resenting the personal
part of his predecessor's argument.
Among the other speakers upon the
subject were James Worden,J. S. Ran-
wMarshall Ii. Tolles, Charles W.
Doty, Gilbert Bogart and several others.
A vote was taken after the resolution
had been before the house for nearly an
hour, the Chair appointing Mr. Tolics
and Mr. Bogart, tellers. and Charles W_
Doty. judge. The total vote cast was
eighty-eight; ayes, forty-six; nays, forty,
and two blanks. It was thus decided
that a fire district be established.
On motion of J. S. Randall the neces-
sary officers were elected to serve until
the annual meeting, which the gentle-
man named to take place the first Tues-
day in June, 1895. Ballots were first
