The long talked of road from (‘rockeft
avenue to Bell Island is finally success~
ful. Last Saturday at the town meeting
seven hundred dollars was appropriated
and the road ordered to be built. The
three selcctmen were agreed as to the
importance of the road. Theoystermen
agreed to pay two hundred dollars lu-
wards the expense. Jacob Raymond
gave one-third of a mile of his private
property for three hundred dollars for
the public road. (‘a \f. Lockwood gives
all the stone for the a intuit-tits of a short
bridge. This road “as conunenced
twenty-five years ago by t‘apt. Herman
ll. Bell. the then owner of Dell Island.
there then being no communication with
the Island except over a long sand beach.
which at high tide was covered with
water. The people here have advocated
this road through the columns of the
SENTISEI. for years. and time has demon-
strated its importance.

were to run had not taken part in the
dc. Then, that. some of the. teams
that were to run were hired for that ee-
pecial purpose. and after each company
had made its run they would rush u to
the judge's stand and rehearse t on
fancied wrongs anew. Among their
absurd claims was one that the judges
did not mean to let the money go out of
the county. which was ridiculous. Only
one other of the racing teams had any
protests to: make. and that was done in
a quiet and gentlemanly manner, and
we are loth to think that these few men
are either fair representatives of Dan~
bury or of the Humane Hose Company.
They finally made a protest in writing.

judges after the contests were over and

conducted in a most straightforward and

'CRl‘kfiE 0F THE NEI'TI'NE CLI'IL 1884.
Leaves frmu luv [.03.
About 5 o‘clock on the morning of Au-
gust lid. while peacefully dreaming of
home and loved companions. we were
aroused from ourslumbers by a tremend
one racket on deck. ()ur first thoughts
were that the crew had mutinied and
were engaged in mopping up‘the decks
with Capt. lien or that the culinary arts
ists were endeavoring to reduce the beef
steaks destined for the morning meal.
into a state of submission. in answer
to our inquiries the commodore in formed
us that the crew were ”holy-stoning“ the
decks: in reply to our query as to whose
( uarry the crew had been raiding during
t ie night. we were told to "cork up“ and
“batten down our deadlights.“ After
remarking upon the urgent necessity of
using the English language if persons
wished us to com rehend them. we re—
'pnire.l to our bert i resolving that the
next time we went it run a cruise we
would invest in one of .larry'att‘s novels.
and [not ourselves thoroughly and then
we too would be able to sport sea slang.
After trying in vain to catch another
"forty winks of sleep.“ we expressed the
opinion that this “washee wasbee“ busi-
11955 was a humbug and that the decks
did not need to be laundried every morn~
IIILZ.
I‘roniptly :it lizfifl the whistle for break«
last was sounded and we sat do“ n to a
most bountiful meal. after which we as
senibled upon the nfterdcck and listened
to the commodore who informed us that
this day was one of the "prize days" of
the cruise and that a prize was awarded
by the club to the member who should
capture the largest blue fish. also a sec-
ond prize was to be offered for the smalls
est fish caught. Shortly after 7 o‘clock
three boat loads of gallant fishermen left
the yacht in pursuit of the festive blue
fish. About this time a notice was
posted upon the bulletin board to the
effect that a match game of base ball
was to be played bet ween the Starboard
and the Post. residents of the cabin. The
contest was to take place on the follow-
ing Monday afternoon. and an elegant
prize consisting of a handsome antique
va‘se had been offered by the judgeadvo-
cute to be «infested for. At 8 o‘clock a
number of the members went ashore to
purchase the implements of warfare and
to indulge in a little practice in order to
get. themselves into shape for the great
contest. After the purchases had been
made. we went to the ball ground and
spent about two hours in endeavoring to
convince a small audience that we were
professional players. then. after we had
obtained suflieient exercise. we donned
our coats and went to the yacht to bind
tip our bruises. Luncheon was served
in the cabin about one o‘clock and after
we had rested we went ashore. l'pon
our arrival at the wharf several of the
party took the train to Katama and ens
Joyed a shore dinner. others of the club
mounted the fiery tricycle and navigated
through the town while the remaining
gentlemen slowly perambulated the
shady avenues of ie city. A party of
these last named gentlemen were majes-
tically treading the pavement in one of
the most beautiful streets of the city.
about three in the afternoon. As they
used one of the most fashionable resi-
ences upon the avenue. and. conscious
of flirtive glances from more than one
pair of bright eyes. were walking wub
erect form and manly tread. there
sounded from the open hall-way a soft
melodious whistle followed by a sup-
pressed laugh. not an object. however.
was visible. The party passed slowly on
when they arrived at the end of the_ av
cone and turned toward the Sea View.
Two of the gentlemen bethought them-
selves of a most ressing engagement
which demanded t eir immediate pres-
ence in the city and. agreeing that _the
street through which they had ust
gassed was the shortest route to t ieir
estination. they retraced their steps
throu h the pleasant walk. As they
neared the cottage above mentioned. it
was evident that the style of architec‘
lure interested them greatly. the looks
of approbation bestowed upon thewmd-
own and doors. would have delighted
the heart of a real estate agent. As they
slowly neared the open doors. that same
mysterious whistle rose soft and sweet
upon the air. Visions of some delight-
ful little flirtation now began to dawn
in the minds of our gallant friends. as a
voice was heard inquiring as to the state
of their health. A few steps further.
and the mystery was revealed in the
center of a charming little rotunda, upon
the back of a chair was perched a t
rich in plumage of emerald and d. As
his eye rested u n the intruders2 the
bird offered to ‘ ake" and made_ indis-
tinct utterance to a cracker. It is said
thatthe two worthy “Reps“ made the
quickest time on record as they bushly
traversed the remaining non of the
avenue. As the echo of t. eir departing
footsteps rang through the rotunda. the
bird returned his opinion that the gentle-
men were “N. G.”
At 5:30 p.m. we all assembled upon
the wharf and in a few moments were
safely on board chip where we found the
crews of the fishifi boats just getting
on deck. The h been very success-
