The County Commissioners granted

Incidentally this closes ll tight in
which a large number of well-known
residents of this city have been involv-
ed for several weeks. A still remon-
titrniice against laellgyt‘l was put up
tutti with the assistance of his attor-
ney, John J. Walsh. he iiiarslialed a
strong reply. which, as can be seen.
has convinced the couiiiilssioners.
Previous to making his present ap-
plication, Lenayel had for three years
conductth a. saloon in ii building 0an
ed by Joseph Kiska. He. was than
paying 868 a 'month rent. The lease
expired August 1st and inngyei claims
Ithe stipulations were so severe that
he could not agree to them. The rent
was raised to 875. he was obliged to
put up s 81,000 bond, It bi claimed,

The commissioners found that the

H. A Mathewson Disagrees With
Statements Made by Former
Mayor M. M. Lee
Editor Evening Sentinel.
Dear Sir: On my return to South
Norwalk this morning i was shown
the open letter from Mortimer M. Lee
to Mayor lliirnell, and if your. readers
could have been present at the execu-
tive sessions of the lloard of Estimate
and Taxation last Maicli and in March
of 1908 they would have shared with
me the laugh that came at the first
impulse, for taking the view of then
and now Mr. Lee in his action ro-
sembieii strongly Artemua Ward’s Kan-
garoo. liut seriously, Mr. Editor, 1
wish to any tiiat the board. with the
exception of perhaps one member,
strove with niyself.to perform their
duty to the city without regard to'
politics or personal prejudice and made
no attempt to settle anyone‘s tight and
indeed took no orders from any boas.
but showed a desire to further the
city's interest instead of a single
iiidlvldiial's.
i. as one who opposed Mr. Lee in
thbse meetings, must be one who in
his opinion ”surrendered to old In
fluences." I did not think I had done
so, but i thought i saw evidence of Mr.
Lee being in its tolls, perhaps not at
that time surrendering. but still con~
ttiiiitng subservient to It.
i sin very sorry to see our worthy
cit-mayor take the position he has in
this matter for i believe that the pub-
lic generally will not agree with him
as to the value of the boards work
for the two years past nor if they
knew the full facts would they agree
with him. if indeed they do._in his at-
tacks on his colleagues. .
