THE DERELICT.

Brief History of Forlorn Craft at
Lake Kennels.

People who frequent Lake Kennels
have long since ceased to wonder
about the little steamer that lies at the
east end of the lake, with In nose dis-
consolatelypoked in the mud. but
those who are at the lake more rare-
ly, always Inquire enact the history of
the forlorn looking craft. says the Dan-
bury News. .

Until 1898, or till it was about five
years of age. It was on the sound, ply-
ing between Port Chester add Haw-
thorne Beach. it then bore the name
"Hawthorne" and was s self-respecting
little boat. But In that year. a Dani

bury man, Bernard Pore. now chef at
the Grovelaud. looked upon it and do
clded he wanted to buy It. The owner
wanted $600 more' than he wanted the
heat. so Pore paid that price and the
boat was his.

 

to Lake Kenosia. It took a fourteen
horse team and: nine man. five weeks
to do the job, and coat $1.175. It was
dually launched in early June 1896.
and christened the “Montgomery "

Pore ran the boat on the lake for
seven summers, charging ten centsa
trip. But the Lake was too small and
the venture was a dismal failure fin
ancialiy. in 1903 l’ere ran the boat on.
to the left shore of the lake. on the
property of Joseph Serre and absu-
doned It In disgust. turning it over to
Mr Serra as a gift. It lay there for
five years, absolutely of no use. text apt
to serve as a bath house for young or-
chins. Meanwhile all the brass work
and everything else of any value was
stolen.

Early In the summer of thou. the for-
saken little craft entered into a new
era of Its history. For it was discov-
ered." by Ion doughty members of the
organization known as the “Siroller‘a.”
They decided that it would serve ad-
