Volunteer Hose Co. is talking of
building a new hose-house near Le-
Count’s machine shop. The proposed
building will be 20x50, two stories in
height, with hose tower.
-::« 11 :—:
In the matter of placing the new tow-
or for the fire bell in East Norwalk, on
the Randall building it is guaranteed
by the owner of the building that it can
remain there for fifteen years, change
in the ownership of the building to
make no difference in the time. The
committee, however, reserve the right
with a vote of the citizens whenever it
shall be thought advisable to do so.
The tower which is nearly completed
will be. placed at the northwest corner
of the building. A wire rope from the
bell-striker will be boxed in and lock
and keys distributed. The bell will be
ready for use as soon as next Saturday.
The bell was rrrade at the Troy bell
foundry 'in 1852.

It is reported of an East Norwalk,
resident 1v ho objects to the placing of
the fire- bell on Randall’s building that
he on Saturday purchased a new lock,
and proceeded to the place where the
bell had been stored, with the avowed
building, so that the bell could not be
removed. He was not a little chagrined
to find that the bell had been removed
and to-day is the butt of jokers.
