HARTFORD. January 31~H. Wilbur
Watch. the" well-known East Hartford
grocer, killed himself yesterday after-
noon by shooting himself in the head.
in the loft of the old barn. in the rear
of the old Phelps property, at the can
not of Main and Blue l streets. in that
town. Mr, Vintonhad been in his usu":w
al health, and was at hlsfstore during
the morning» and until about 1:80
o'clock; He was seen by a number of
people on Main street at about it o’clock
and appeared to be in good spirits and
in his usual health. ‘
At about ll o'clock he'wcnt to his
barn. where his clerk. William Pratt,
was hitching up‘the team to deliver
goods for the afternoon. lie appeared
all right and Mr. Pratt supposedhe
was going to hitch up a team to come
to Hartford. While delivering goods
on Bissell street Mr. Pratt heard the
report of a revolver. which came from
the vicinity ‘of the barn, but did not
think anything of it. When he return-
ed to the store there was a man looking
for Mr. Vision and said that he he
sent to the house and Mr. Vlnton was
not there. Mr. Pratt then remembered
the pistol shot and went to the barn
with a lantern. lie ascended to the
loft and there found Mr. Vinton‘s body
on the floor, near a "halo of hay. He
was dead and the body was cold.
Medical Examiner , Murphy of East
Hartford was untitled and after viewing
the body turned it over to Undertaker
Hayes. who took it torhis undertaking
rooms on Governor street, East Hart-
ford. It was about 6:30 o'clock when
the bodywas found and it is thought
that Mr. Vintou‘lsllled himself at about

terday afternoon he visited the rooms
of J. A. Whitney and paid a bill.‘ He
was in. good spirits. The cause of his
act is unknown. unless he was worried
over his business, and there is no ap-
parent reason for that. '
H. Wilbur Vinton was born in Rock-
ville. April 8. 1859 .and was the son of
Charles C. Vinton. of Vinton's Mills.
He lived in )Rockville until he was
about ten years old and later in Tal-
cottville and South Madam. He was
educated in the local schools at the
places where he lived, and at East-
msn’s Business College in Poughkecp-
sis. hi. Y. At one: time he was toll col-
lector at the old artford bridge. in
1887 booster-ed t e grocery business
on Main street. East Hartford. and con;
tinned there until his death. Mr. Vin--
too was well known and well liked in
that town. He was honest and upright
and made many friends. He was treas-

Ploaaant Affair Held in A. O. H. Hall,
Last in .
The Norwaik Social Club held an
enjoyable dance last evening in the

orchestra furnished, music for dancing
and the light fantastic was tripped un.
til some time past midnight. The

rest of the term. The calling of a lury
at this time of the year is a new de-
parture in the superior court. at least
for recent years. it has been the cus-
tom heretcfnre to call the jury at the
May term.
Among the cases which are down on
the trial listnone will furnish! more in-
tcrest for Bridgeport than the action
brought by former commissioners of
public works against former Mayor
Thomas. P. Taylor. Whether or not
the case will be pushed for trial is a
question; it- will seat with the claim
tiff to assign the action. but there is
nothing to prevent the defendant
from putting it down if he so desires.
This famous action. it will be re-
membered. gm out‘of Mayor Taylor's
trouble with the old board of public
works and his effort to fasten upon
some of the members. including the
plaintiff. certain questionable .tranaacé
tions. While preparing for this move
the mayor is alleged to have made cer-
tain remarks which redacted on the
plaintiff. The latter claims that the
whclc‘proceedlngs was malicious and
brought this suit toga-t satisfaction.
Another batch of interesting actions.
is that which. is
brought by the Violett family against
Elisa G. Benedict. Greenwich million.
sire and friend of Grover Cleveland. to
mover-heavy damases for injury re—
ceived as the result of alleged defective
plumbing. These cases will be hard
fought as heavy damages are asked for.
Another case of interest to Bridge-
port is the suit of the late w.
longstaff against Dr. C. . nooiu
