William G. Lecounl Secures
Property in Merritt Place,
Near the South Norwaik
Depola'and Will Erect Large
Manufactory
South Norwaik is to gain another.
thriving industry soon. William G.
Lecount, the owner of Lecount's Ma
chine Shop, has decided to remove his
factory business from East Norwaik,
where it has been established for
forty years to South Norwaik. Mr.
Lecount has contracted with Christian
Swartz for the purchase of four lots
on the Merritt property, adjacent to
the new school house and the newly
erected plant of the Boesse-Peppard
lace factory. The important transac-
tion is being closed through the real
estate agency of Jacob M. Layton.
Mr. LeCount proposes to erect a
modern manufacturing plan of fire
proof construction. and work will prob-
ably be commenced in the near future.
While he has not yet consulted an ar-
chitect, he has his own ideas regard-
ing the building, and states that it will
be of mill construction one story high,
well lighted, the proof throughout, and
with concrete floors. The dimensions
and other plans haie not yet been de-
cided upon. Considerable new machin-
cry will be installed in addition to
that already possessed by Mr LeCount
which he uses in the manufacture of
machinists tools and specialties.
The present quarters of the factory
have become inadequate to the large
'and growing business and rather than
have an addition put on, Mr. LeCount
has decided on a new building in the
business center of South Norwaik.
Another incentive which has been
the cause of his decision to remove
to South Norwalk is that he might
take advantage of the electric light
and power furnished by the Municipal
Electric Works, which is considered to
furnish as good and cheaper service
than any other cit or commercial
plant in the United totes.

JOSIAH mph: DEAD.
Passed Away Suddenly Yesterday Af
fornoon at Home of Dough»
tor.in.l.ain.
Josiah Dodge, one of the most fam-
iliar figures about Norwaik. died very
suddenly yesterday. He was found
dead by his daughter-in-iaw. rs. ida
Dodge, near their home in West Rocks
avenue. Dr. S. H. Huntington, medical
examiner of the Town of Norwaik. who
was called. pronounced death due to
stomach trouble. Dr. Huntington was
of the opinion that the deceased had
had a hemorhage of the stomach.
Mr. Dodge had been in failing
health for some time, because of
chronic stomach trouble and for this
reason, Dr, Huntington had warned his
son, Frank W. Dodge. and the iattcr's
wife not to let the old gentleman go
very far unobserved. Mr. Dodge was
seventy years of age.
Death undoubtedly came painlessly.
It was while he was leading a horse to
pasture a short distance from his home
that he was stricken. it is believed
that he simply sank doWn by the road-
side and expired almost immediately.
Mr. Dodge was known by a iargc
number of people. and it was believed
that he possessed considerable proper.
ty. He had a collection of diamonds
which he prized highly and which are
supposed to be worth quite a sum.
Funeral services will be held Mon-
day afternoon at 2:30 o'clock from the
family home. The Rev. James ll. Well"
nor. rector of Grace Church', will oili-
clate.

taken in a group by James R. Warden,

Twice during the present week it
has happened, and two men are con-
fined to the Stamford Hospital suffer-

dered and stepped off, the bridge, boo

who ordered his removal to the Stam-
ford Hospital. , ,
On Wednesday night Bernard
Coughiin, while meandering down the
track tried to walk off into the air
with the same results that Dorian

Casey has a badly bruised and
sprined leg, but will be able to be
out again in a few‘daya to continue
his walking tour to New ,Yol‘k.’
Coughlln is somewhat worse off. He
fell from the bridge early Wednesday
night and lay under the structure all
night through the slowness of the

ed him and he was later taken to the
hospital, where his injuries were
found not to be particularly '.eerious
