The statement in your issue of 26th
inst. to the effect that the roof of the
new church at East Norwalk leaked in
many pails of water during the last
storm,is not strictly in accordance with
facts. The roof is slated and there
are many gables and valleys, some of
which did leak badly at first. The
roof was put on by E. K. Lockwood &
Co., they guaranteeing a tight roof.
They have remedied every leak which
has been brought to their notice, and
during the last storm but one, very
small leaks showed.
There are some small matters to be
attended to as soon as the weather will
permit. The church has been accept-
ed, with a reservation of $500 to insure
completion. It Will be dedicated to-
morrow, and an earnest invitation is
extended to all to attend and judge for
themselves whether we have not se-
cured a large, neat, commodious struc-
ture, which is a credit to the Society
and an ornament to the town, and
makes a long step forward in church
convenience in this section, and per-
haps illustrates better than anything
that has yet been done in this neigh-
borhood to show the growth of East
Norwalk. x. x.

Mr. .F. J. Alger fears that this cold

Spring chickens, to be hatched by

The deferment of hope in regard to
the French spoliation claims, which
our Government is so dilatory in pay-
ing,does not seem to affect the hearts of
the thrifty Kellogg boys. But all the
same they would rather have their
share in cold cash and let Uncle Sam’s
treasury suffer a contraction that
much.

THE EAST N01: WALK FIRE BELL. ’ l
- ED. GAZETTE :——Much dissatisfaction
’ is expressed in regard to the site
1 selected for the fire alarm bell, and
; many who havecontributed towards its
i purchase have decided to enter a pro-
‘ test against the action of the commit-
! tee in proposing Randall’s hall, as
: being neither an appropriate place nor
l desirable for itslocation.
i It is the general opinion that no
< private property should be used for
such a purpose, and the objections are
so well grounded that the result will,
in all probability, be the adoption of a
more suitable and business like plan.
There is a small piece of property
near the school house that seems par-
ticularly adapted to the needs of the
community in this respect, and on
which a tower could be built at a very
small cost. Here would be a safe and
permanent investment, and there are
those who would cheerfully subscribe
towards a fund necessary for the build-
ing of such a tower who will withhold
their assistance in the other matter if
the committee referred to are still de-
termined to overlook their wishes.
If we are to have a fire alarm let it
be so arranged as to insure the greatest
degree of safety. CITIZEN.
