Newton is About One Mile
West of fish island—Body
of a Member of the Crew
floats Ashore at Shippan
Point. Near Siamford‘

Word was received in South Nor-
waik. late Saturday afternoon, that the
body of a man had been washed ashore
near the Slilppan l'oint llotei. Stam-
ford, during the morning. It was
found by Bathing Master b‘iniiey. and
the medical examiner of the town of
Stamford. Dr. George SheI-rill, was not-
filed.

The body was dressed in a pair of
dark trousers, and undershirt and a
good pair of shoes, and had not been
in the water for a great length of time,
as it was not badly decomposed. 'l‘he
supposition was that the remains were
those of a member of the crew of the
Willie L. Newton. of Bangor. Maine.
which went down in the gale of last
Tuesday afternoon. off Middieground
Light, near Falrfleid.

As told in The Sentinel the following
day. the vessel was found turned bot-
tomside up. with all sails set. by the
ocean-going tug Patience. Captain Wai-
ter Miner. and towed to Greens Reef
Light. The entire crew, consisting of
seven men. was lost. The body of Cap-
tain Coombs was recoicicd inst Wed~
nesday. having floated from the cabin.
and was lmequentiy brought to South
Norwalku I] sent to the home of the
deceased in Islesboro, Maine,

The schooner Newton remained off
the Greens Reef Light until Saturday
afternoon. in about the same position
that she had been placed when~towed
here by the tug Patience. The latter
vessel left Saturday for the eastward.
and the tug R. B. Little. another vessel
owned by the Tire Towing Company.
of New York. took her place, and at-
tempted to stand by the schooner. The
storm became so severe that Captain
W. W. Collins deemed that it would be
very unwise to remain there and jeo-
pardizc the lives of the fourteen Inca

- which composed the crew of the boat.
Ho accordingly left two men on the
schooner for the purpose of making the
salvage safe. The men were changed
at intervals of two hours each. This
method was continued till yesterday
morning. as the storm had not abated
up to 2 o'clock in the afternoon.

it was necessary to lash the men to
the schooner to keep them on the ves-
sel. and it frequently happened that
tile seas broke over them, drenching
the men to the skin, and nearly freez-
ing them. as the water was very cold.
The different relays of men were taken
to the schooner from the tug at Wil-
son's Point dock yesterday, by Francis
Donaldson. of Belle island, who had
the sixteen foot launch used by Ches-
tcr Finch. of Hickory Bluff. The men
were drenched with the rain and sons
during every trip. and how the little
craft lived to make several trips to
the schooner. nearly three miles away,
was a mystery to all who heard of the
occurrence. Mr. Donaldson. however,
ls thoroughly familiar with the water
and he showed excellent Judgment in
the hand ng of the craft.

The not now'VIIes in the cove
between Fish Island. off Roton Point.
and Long Neck Point. and it is believ-
ed that the anchor is holding although
this could not be fully ascertained yea-
terday afternoon. The vessel appear-
ed to berestfng easily after the storm
subsided but she labored very heavily
all Saturday afternoon and up to yes-
terday afternoon. and at one time
would not have surprised people had
she gone to pieces on the rocks. in the
vicinity of where she finally stopped.

Yesterday afternoon 0. D. Pendle'ton.
of lslesboro. Maine, one of the owners
of the schooner with Edward F.
Smith. the South Norwalk cigar deal-
er. went to Wilson's Point by trolley.
and there boarded the tug Lit-
tie and were taken to the schooner.
where they made as much of an in—
spection as possible.

The wrecking apparatus has not yet
arrived at the scene of the capsized
Nebrtcn. and probably will not reach
here today. ~

Two Stanchlons Carried Away and Big
Door Forced In by the Sons, Which
Wcrc Unusually Savors.

The steamer Hampton. of the New
York and Norwalk line, was obliged to
abandon the trip from New York to
South Norwaik. Saturday afternoon.
on account of the rough weather. There
were a number of passengers. includ-
ing many fresh air children, on board
the boat. and they were all considera-
bly frightened by the violence of the
elements. All went well until near
Greenwich. when the storm appeared
to increase in violence. and the waves
dashed over the bow of the vessel. Be
low Stamford .two of the stanchions
were carried away and the door on the
lower deck was smashed in. It was then
decided to return to New York. and the
Hampton had an uneventful trip, arriv.
ing at Thirty-first street pier about 6
o'clock. The passengers then took a
train for South Norwaik.

The officers of the vessel alloyed the
fears of.the passengers. and at no
time was the boat in great danger. al-
though the storm was about as severe
as any ever experienced in these parts.

Yesterday afternoon another attempt
was made to reach South Norwaik. but
the sea Was still too rough. The steam
or proceeded as far as Sands Point, and
was then obliged to return to New
York.

Captain M. H. Wilson and Quarter.
master Charles Parmelee came to
South Norwalk by train. and returned
to New Y0ik this morning. it is
hoped that the vessel will be able to
make her regular trip this afternoon.

DELU RY'S ESTATE SMALL.

 

Same of the Heirs Will Be Disappoint-
ed Over the Report.

The appraisers on the estate of the
late Daniel J. Delury, who died in the
insane asylum at Middletown, was filed
Saturday in the Probate court, in
Bridgeport. The total valuation of
the estate is 33.427. of which $2,600 Is
in realty and the remainder personal-
ty. The valuation of the estate will be
:1 keen disappointment to the heirs.
who have been greatly disturbed in
spirit by the rumor that Deliiry was a
married man and that his wife was still
alive.

There was a hearing of the various
heirs at the Probate court recently and
they all declared that they did not be«
licvo tha' he had or ever had a wife.
The judge had a statement from one of
the heirs in New York that Delury
married a woman in- that city years
ago. that they had a “falling out" when
on a visit to a friend several weeks
after their marriage and hail separated

According to the romance the "fall-
izug out." made Delury a changed man.
He came to Bridgeport. and during his
life here was more or less of a recluse.
At, the hearing some of the heirs. who
protested that they were “(fear friends"
of the deceased. said that the story of
the marriage was not true. in the
meantime the court has not received
any information regarding the missing
wife. But wife or no wife. the heirs of
the deceased Delury will be surprised
at the smallness of the estate. They
suppoaed that the estate was worth
from 85.000 to 810.000.

terport. L. i.

There the boat remained until you-
terday morning. when It crossed over
to Norwaik waters. anchoring east of
Helen Point. where it arrived in the
afternoon without mishap, although it
had a very rough passage.

came upon a sloop yacht. belonging in
New York. which was in serious trou-
ble. The storm and waves had carried
away all the sails and rigging and bad
torn down the mast. the waves sweep-
ing the entire deck. The lifeboats on

yacht was cleared and the occupants
on board, which consisted of two men
and three women. rescued . The Eifrida

setts Had Dinner it the Norwalk
Hotel and Then Continued Trip

 

 

 

A little travel stained but jubilant
in spirits. Albert Sillier and Carl E.
Pickhardt of lsiington. lids" arrived
in Norwalk yesterday at noon. on a
walking tour from Heston to New York

City.
Ayffer can» dinner at; .l'lotnl N or
walk they set one it ediabely for

New York evidently not-.bclieving in
long rests. They stariud from Boston
last Monday morning and figured on
getting to New York today. They
stated yesterday that they would pro
babiy arrive in New York tonight.

Sllber is a traveling salesman while
l’ickhardt is a law student at Harvard.
lloth are young men. perhaps twenty-
one or twenty two years of age. They
are taking this long action country
walk for pleasure anti enjoy the experi-
cncc. These young pedestrians stated
yesterday that they had frequently
taken long walking trips before. but
none as long as the present one. which
they set out to do in eight days.

The travelers pay no attention what-
ever to the condition of the weather
after they start out. This is proven
by the atmospheric condition since
they began their Journey. When they
set out from Boston last Monday morn-
ing it. was clear, but on Tuesday it be-
gan to storm and has continued to do
so since. They walk all day in their
wet clothes but have their baggage
sent on ahead of them to the place
where they are to spend the night fig-
uring on reaching a hotel each night.

Saturday night they stayed in
Bridgeport and started yesterday
morning in the rain for Norwalk ar
riving here a few minutes after 12
o‘clock quite wet but they did not
seem to mind it in the least. They
were attired In khaki bicycle suits and
were heavy. serviceable looking shoes.
which were well covered with mud.
For head covering they had small caps.

The fartherest distance walked by
them in any one day since they started
was forty-two miles but they preferred
to walk about thirty miles a day. The
distance walked in a day depended con-
siderably upon the conditiontof the
roads, which in some places was very
bad. At times they would sink up to
their ankles in the mud.

After spending a few days in New
York city the travelers will return.
probably by train, to their home in
Massachusetts.

They were in excellent health and
were in good condition for walking. The
day before one of the walkers had
developed a slight lameness in one
knee but this was slight and did not
interfere with their progress. ,

When walking they go at a lively
gait had set out with long strides
which assists them in coveringth thd
around at 'a good "00.

Despite the lowering skies the Old
Home Week of our sister city. Bridge-
port. began this morning suspiciously
and the city is crowded with visitors
from all over the country. There has
been a general exodus from The Nor-
walks all day long and many people
who have no particular interest. in
Bridgeport are attending to see the
monster parades which are being held
there today.

This morning was held the great
automobile parade in which all sorts
of motor vehicles snorted and smoked
through the streets. and this afternoon
the civic and military parade is twining
its way through the streets.

The city is decked in its brightest
and hunting and flags make most of
the streets regular arches of red. white
and blue. The individual people who
left here for the affair mostly went in
the morning early to choose advantag-
eous places from which to see the pa-
ratios.

The members of Lincoln Council. 0.
U. A. M.. accompanied by the full de
gran team went. on the 12:02 train.
Their ranks were well filled and they
presented a fine appearnce as they filed
down to the railroad station. Each
member of the organization wore a
handsome button bearing a plain un-
leitercd picture of Abraham Lincoln.
which was Wul‘fl on the front of their
insignia.

At 12:60 a special train left the sta-
tion bearing other organizations, am-
ong which were Companies F and l).
of the Fourth infantry, the members
of Douglas Fowler Post. 0. A. R.. and
the members of the Knights of Pythias
in their rcgalias. The organisations
from Norwalk will do full credit to it.

Postoffieelmprovements
in South Norwalii

New Carrier to be Put on Tomorrow.
and Later and More Frequent Da-
llvcrlca to be Mada.

 

There will be a great change for the
better in the matter of postal accom-
modations for South Norwalk begin-
ning tomorrow. and the entire city will
benefit by a number of changes which

are to be made by Postmaster E. E.
Crow.

it was announced some time ago in
The Sentinel that Julian H. Main had
been appointed a regular letter carrier,
the appointment to take effect Septem-
1.

As this added one carrier to the reg-
iilar force. it became necessary to
change the routes of all the carriers
somewhat In order to make an equal
distribution of work for them all. This
has been arranged in a satisfactory
manner. and it is found that owing to
the lessened territory to be covered
that more frequent deliveries and col-
lections of Inaii may be made. The
most important change will be a late
collection of mail, the carriers leaving
the post ofllce at 6:30 in the evening
and emptying all the boxes in time to
get them to the post-office before ll
o'clock. There will be also an addi-
tional deliveryTor the business bona-
es at 10: 30 a. tin. and a number of pinc-

es which were not previously taken in‘

will receive the benefit of this change
There will be an additional business
trip at 1:45, which will be of great bene
fit to the business men as it will en-
able them to transact business prior
to the closing of the banks.

Mr. Main will assume his duties as

a regular carrier tomorrow. and his;
many friends are congratulating him

on the fact.

Clarence Crofut began work this mor-
ning as a substitute carrier and is
learning the routes.

The growth of South Norwalk has
rendered this addition to the force. and
the attendant better serviie. a matter

of necessity not luxury. and It Will be

welcomed by the people In I. treat im-
prowment.

Letter Carriers E. W. Clark and‘JoI-
epb Tammany started this morning for
Syracuse to attend the annual conven-
tion of the National Association of Let-
ter Carriers. Representatives from
all places in thc country which have
carriers will be in attendance and many
things will come up which will be of
considerably importance to the cur-
rlers of this city.
