’A Wsll-Known Rosidsnt of South Nor-
waik, who Ones Controlled City's
Produos Business.
l
| Gershom Raymond. a well-known
resident of South Norwaik, died very
Isllddenly this morning. just before 9.
o'clock. at his borne. 89 Spring street.
Mr. Raymond had been ill of dropsy
for several months. but his condition
was not thought to be serious, and his
son, Station Agent Frederick E. Ray-
mond, accompanied by his wife, had
gone to New York to spend the day.
Mr. Raymond arose as usual, and was
engaged ill dressing himself, when he
was suddenly stricken.
Gorsllom llavmond was the son of
Gcrsllom Raymond. 3rd., of Rowayton.
who built. what is known as the Put-
llnnl house ill Rowayton, where all his
seven children were born. and where
he died in 1828. He was descended
from several of tile oldest families in
Norwa‘k: six of the original authors
of the town were his ancestors. He
represented the fourth generation of
the name of Gershom. the first of the
name being Gel-shom Hanford Ray-
mond; a great grandson of Rev. Thom-
as Hanford. and son of Captain John
Raymond, of Roton Hill. The first Ger-
sllom was a member of the committee
of safety during the Revolution, and
owned nearly the whole of what is now
called Rowayton on the east side of
Five Mile River. Three sons of this
first Gershom Raymond set apart the
land for the Raymund cemetery at the
lllcad' of Rowayton harbor late in the
eighteenth century, and here now rest
five generations of Raymonds.
A handmade silver tablespoon.
which was presented by Gerabom Han-
ford to his namesake in 1724. has been
handed down from father to son and
was owned by Mr, Raymond at the
time of his death.
Mr. Raymond learned the business
of bat making when the industry was
in its infancy in Norwalk, and contin-
ued in it for several years. He then
formed a partnership with the late
Captain Hiram H. Bell, and engaged in
a general market business. For many
years they occupied the building in
Railroad avenue now leased by Gustav
Fredrlch, Andrew Leary and Phillip T.
Cllneo. and they carried on the princi-
pal business in that line in the town.
, practically controlling the entire trade,
"and were very successful. Later. a
quarter of a century ago. this partner-
ship was discontinued. and Mr. Ray-
mond went into business in New York.
where he remained a few years. later
returning to South Norwalk. and re-
suming the hattcr’s trade.
Mr. Raymond married Miss Susan

Stranger who Visited
New Canaan Said his Wife
was a Millionairess. But
he Neglected to Settle
Hotel and Other Bills
A report that has been circulated
about New Canaan for the past week!
that a physician who hails from Ros-
tou. giving the name of Dr. Earle.
had rented rooms In tlle'Raymond
building, where he would open an of-
fice..nnd also that he had rented the
Shel-wood residence in Prospect ave-
nue, proves a myth.
It seems that during the past week
this so-called “doctor" arrived at the
New Canaan hotel. where he engaged
board. He soon made himself acquaint-
ed, and stated that be intended to lo-
cllle there. He was a man of medium
hellzhl. comparatively young. and
weighing about 135 pounds. and came
into town no one knows how. wheth-
er by train. wagon or on foot—pro-
bably the latter—without any baggage
or any wearing apparel excepting
what he had on. He. aroused the cur-
iosity of people. and it was hinted
that ho had escaped from some saili-
larium.
Wife Hsd Money to Burn.
The day he arrived. after making
himself generally known. he stated
that he was married and his wife was
worth a million dollars. and he ell-
pccted her there on any train. He said
he was also the owner of an alltomo
bile that was capable of going at the
rate of sixty miles an hour and his
wife was an export summobillstl and
could run the machine for all it was
worth. 110 further stated that he was
very sorry that a later train was not
run on the branch, so that he might be
able to return home from New
York. as he and his wife were very
fond of the theatre and attended sev-
eral times a week. But. of course.
he said. that did not matter
so very much. as they could come
home fronl Stamford in their automo-
bile. for, after being ones out of the
city limits. it would be no time before
they would be home. as his wife could
certainly make the nut oblle fly.
Sherwood Place Bu sd Him.
Friday he was desirous of renting
the Sherwood residence in Prospect
avenue. and together with the owner
and Real Estate Agent I". E. Green.
looked the place over. He was so
much pleased with the place that he
was desirous of purchasing it. All aro.
rallgements were made to close the
deal Saturday. but at the stated time
lllc "doctor" was missing. and could
not be located after a thorough search.
This chagrined both Mr. and Mrs.
Sherwood and Mr. Green. the former
having come from their home near
White Plains, ill anticipation of dispos-
ing of their residence.
He Smoked Cigarettes.
The "doctor" was last seen Satur-
day morning, about a half mile from
he village. on the road to Norwalkh
,walklng this way. Where he disupi
ghoul-ed is a conundrum. He was ltd»

Who In to pay for the private propor-
ty? Will the Connecticut Railway,-
Company pay for it and thus make
good what they will appropriate to
their own use. or will the city at large?
pay for a idi- the benefit. of the null-1
way Company. or will the property
owners immediately adjoining be com-l
polled to pay for It as they were for
the extension of the avenue? I believe
every reasonable man will say they have
already paid enough. Will the property
on the east side of the street belong
log to the New York. New Haven and:
Hartford Railroad and the property on;
the west side of the street north of!
Clay street. including the Hshacltomo;
Hotel. be required to pay for it. i
It appears when we have a law that;
does not suit as we Ignore it and wheat
we do not have a law that suits on war
make it. '
