,. After the report had been accepted,
Charles I. Sellcck made a motion that
no appropriation be made to purchase
the property recommended by the com-
,mittec, but withdrew it in favor of a
auction by William Warden that no
. further action be taken on the purchase
111111111 until after the next town elec.
ion. In discussing the question, Mr.
,1 Warden said he was not opposed to the
~building of a new school- house. but
. thought it would be advisable to wait
until the question of consolidating the
school districts of the town was settled
id the fall.Me1~'srs. Golding, Tolles
. and Marvin urged the purchase of the
'f 'ilQ and advanced some strong argu-
; pants in favor of a new school- house.
1 They thought the district could
not do better than decide upon the pro
' party. The consolidation of the districts
might be a good ways ed, and as they
,2:
had the refusal of the land for only thirty
days, it was necessary for the district to
{alto me action at once in order to se-
' , euro 11 111111111111 11111. 1111. Sellovk thought
the district had plenty of land surround-
ing the present school building upon
which it could build, or couldcasily pro-
cure additional adjacent property for
less money than the Benedict Farm site
would cost. The question being called
for, Mr. Wardcn's motion to postpone
further action was carried, and the
meeting adjourned. “

The selectmen will not call a town
meeting in response to Walter Bates‘
petition to reimburse him for the cutting
down of Seminary Hill. Selectman
Waterbury yesterday conferred with
Town Counsel Scofleld, who told him a
meeting could not be legally called. The
selectmen claim that the point where
the highway was cut down is twenty
feet west of the center, and fifty feet
from Mr. Bates’ fence. Mr. Bates
claimed that the earth, was taken from
in front of his property and carted to
other people’s properties. and that a
tree. planted by him when he was aboy.
was cut down, and for this he asks $130
damage.
Town Counsel Scofield has served
notice of protest on the Norwallr Tramv

ing of the curve around Mather do Grum~
man's corner, further west. The Tram-
‘way company was to have a conference
with the selectmen yesterday, but no
one appeared to represent the company.
The turnout is practically completed.
