Bridgeport Concrete Company
Claims Money, and Charge is
Made Work Was improperly
Done
Much interest is being taken in the
number of suits which the Bridgeport
Concrete Company has brought
against a number of the residents oi
South .‘orwnlk for an alleged failure
to pay forcement walks constructed
by the Bridgeport Real Estate Invest-
ment Company. which latter corpora-
tion-has gone out of existence and the
rights turned over to the Concrete
Company. The trouble seems to be
caused through a misunderstanding
and there is‘mucb to be said on both
sides.
The Bridgeport Rent Estate invest-
ment Company was a reputable con-
cern in which Mayor Buckingham. of
Bridgeport. Postmaster E. S. Adams.
Ex-Lieutenant-Governor E. 0. Keelcr.
Judge A. E. Austin, Town Clerk libr-
bert R. Smith and several other prom.
inent Norwaikers were Interested. This
company was wrecked by one of the
head officials. one of the local men
said this morning. and all those inter-
ested lost their money invested.
