I ESTABLISHED 1870.

A Corner In
Iild Norwaik

Interesting Relics to be
Exhibited on Next Monday.
in Commemoration of the
I25th Anniversary of the
burning of the Iowa by the
British iroops.

Druggist Glendenning's front win-
dow which marks the Col. Joshua
Kin mill entranccsitc of long ago.
will, on Monday next, be transformed
into an interostlng local history shrine.
On that date it being the one hundred
and twenty-fifth anniversary of the
burning of the town, greenery from
the Hanford' s Flora. will drape the per-
traits in said window. of Rev. Steph~
en Suckingham, the second pastor of
Norwaik, 1697—1727, and of Sarah
Hooker. his wife. who is claimed to
ha been “the most accomplished lady

 

ever came to Norwaik." Mon-
d onlookers will see the likeness-
faco of a grandaughter of the "Immor-
tal Thomas Hooker," founder of Hart-
ford, and a grandchild also of Thomas
Willetts, the first mayor of the city of
New York and the nclce of President
Jonathan Edwards, and the aunt of the
distinguished Pierrcpont ancestrcss of
America. But few as absorbinbly in-
teresting portraits as that of Nor-
walk's Mrs. Stephen Buckingham can
be found in New England and the ade-
quate'description of Monday's picture
subject would fill a small volume.

Between the Buckingham portraits
inside the Glendennlng pane will be
exhibited the thoroughly quaint profile
of Captain Samuel Keefer of the war
of 1812. Captain Keeler. who con-
ducted a body of United States troops
from New London to Michigan, was of
the thrifty Keefer stock that owned
the large tract west of West avenue
and north to Spring Hill and using for
the family slave quarters the old Hon-
ry Kellogg home sites on Belden ave-
nue. The soldier was born near where
now stands the Gram Church edifice,
and when he led his command through
Norwaik en route for the West, he
drew up his men into line and making
them face the Phillips (now You Bur-
en) mansion, ordered a military sa-
lute in honor of his Keeler-Benedict
and Seymour' blood. it was his las.
compliment to his native Norwaik. He
died after reaching Michigan and was
buried with great honor. General
Lewis Cass was one of his pallbearers
and the present city of Detroit holds
his remains and also his record.

The sovcailed ‘ITryon Cane" will con

stitute a further Monday exhibit. The
curator of the Historical Society hat
for years hoped,.tog3aln possession of
this article, thetrne history of which
is believed to be as follows: On the
morning that Norwaik was burned
(See Lamb's History of New York and
The National Quarterly Magazine) a
golden headed walking stick which had
been presented by Gov, Fitch to Dr
Uriah Rogers was remover] from the
physician’s house (Tristram Mill Hill
”site) to the undoomed Nathan Jarvis
home close by (now Manice Lock-
,wcods’ home seat). The descendants
of Mr. Jarvis have been the custodians
of said done until yesterday when it
became thetproperty of the local His-
torical‘ Soclety. it is considered to be
a Tryon cane only through association.
The colonial governor was a marriage
relative of‘ Dr, Rogers. The Medical
fraternity of olden Norwaik was a
body of which to be proud and two of
its bright stars were Drs. Uriah Rog-
ers. Sr. and Jr. The Sr. Rogers was
the grandfather of the Blackstone of
America and his son was Chancellor
Kent's uncle. The wife of the Jr.
physician was an Old Well Raymond
and a piece of her silver. marked “E.

is known far and wide and has al-
ready become one of Norwalk‘s most
prominent attractions.

form of Luna Park. A regular dream-
land. not as large as the original, of
course, but; an exact reproduction in
miniature. The spacious club grounds
on West avenue will be lighted with
thousands of Chinese lanterns together
with scores of electric lights, present-
Ing a spectacular illumination. so gl-
zantic that you will be reminded of the
great electrch display of the Pan
American Exposition.

A trip through the Midway with its
many and varied shows. its babel of
all nations. its serious and mirth-giv-
ing side of life together with other
features such as the wonderful roof~
garden, splendid in themselves. will
give the grandest carnival of attrac-
tions ever seen in Norwaik.

The roof garden scene—is a produc~

ties abound galore, and throughout the
entire length and breadth of this show
there is not a dull moment.
