General (Introduce onhr “"
iown Division Votes Unan-
imously tcl'rooeed with the
Establishment of (intern-
ment in lawn of South
Norwalt on October 5
A most enthusiastic meeting of the
General Committee on Division was
held last evening, at G. A. R. Hall. In
‘South Main street The utmost unan-
imity prevailed among those present.
and there was only one desire-appar-
ent, that being to be rid and cult of
the Town of.Norwalk. The speakers
appeared to be confident of success in
the legal battle which is to be fought.
and the preliminary stops were taken
for the holding of an election of oili-
cers oi the new Town of South Nor-
walk.
There were upward of sixty-live per»
sons present. and their applause show-
ed beyond persdventure that there is
no lukewarinness in their strivings.
The important feature of the meet-
ing was the passage of the following
resolution, which was presented by
Hon. Christian Swarts:
Whereas. This committee has
been advised by one of the nblest
lawyers of the state, that the row
lution incorporating the new Town
of South Norwaik will take effect
(m ths.drst Monday of October,
1903, the governor's veto to the
contrary. nothwithstanding. and
that it is the duty of the legal vot—
ers residing within the territory of
the nasty town to organise their
new government by electing neces-
sary officers; and
Whereas. This committee is of
the opinion that party caucuses
should be held in the usual way
for the purpose of nominating suit-
able men to be candidates for the
town oilices to be tilled; therefore.

Something was evidently wrong with

Dr. J. Milton Coburn was called and
after putting on temporary dressings
