just brought to light that thousands
of marriages have been illegally per-

here being attached in the case by
Deputy Sheriff Nelson W‘. Benedict.
In e writ it is alleged that on
April lst. 1921. the plaintiff was en-
gage-d to act as broker in leasing
property of the defendant company
on Belden avenue to the Davis-Pope

Sanitarium Inmate
Died Accidentally
In a decision made public yesterday.
Coroner John J. Phelan finds that
there was no criimnal neglgence in
the death of Tafia Resnick. 20 years
of age. who was killed at 5:18 a. m.
January 19, at the depot at Greenwich.
Resntck’died from a compound frac-.
ture‘ of. the skull, after he had been hit:
by a railroad train. Resnick was an
inmate of Dr. Marat-rand; sanitorium
at Greens Farms. and leftflzere in thé
early morning of, January 18 without
Bridge committee. and with Mayor
Barton. Corporation Counsel ’Wllliam
F. Tammany and members of the
council. regarding the government
work in the loca! harbor.
The consultation was held in the
council chambers at the city hall. It
was learned that at the present time
there is available only $88,000 and it
is estimated that to complete all the
harbor work about $206,000 will be
needed. The balance of the money
would not be appropriated until 1923.
Major Peterson stated and he further
added that until the city ot‘Norwalk
had taken some steps to assure the
United States Engineers that they in-
tended to do their part of the pro-
gram. that it was likely that the. oth-
er money would not be appropriated.
A retaining wall or dyke would
have to be built around the proposed
site of Seaview Park. «so as to retain
the mud and water that would be
pumped in as filling. This presents a
difficulty, to retain their wall or dyke
against the pressure of the liquid
mud to be pumped in.
