. NORWALK GAZETTE,TUESDAY, AUGUST 21, 1883. NORWALK GAZETTE; Tuesday August 21, 1883. The Old Time Nerwalk Bridge. That is an exquisitely fine bit of dcs scriptive writing, in Gen. Ferry’s word picture of the old wooden bridge that used to span the river near where now the GA- ZETTE Building stands. We refer to the opening paragraph of-chapter third of Mr. Ferry’s admirable story, “Adventures of a Merchant’s Clerk,” which appeared in last Saturday’s Semi-Weekly. All the older , residents of Norwalk will readily recog- also the apt descriptive photograph of that old and crazy structure, which pre- ceded for long years the present stone bridge. On the northeast abutment, where now stands Plaistcd’s drug store, stood the Hubbell grist mill, with its col- lossal trunk, reaching overhead and across and down into the harbor below, through which sloop loads of grain used to be scooped up its tin-cupped endless belt, and carried into the old mill. 0n the southeast abutment opposite, the Capt. Pennoyer, wet grocery,was kept, substan— tially as now, in the hands of the Merrills, Capt. Pennoyer's successors. Opposite the present GAZETTE Building stood the old tumble-down frame tenement, known for years as C. J. Gruman’s“Old Bridge Store.” This site is now occupied by the Mitchell’s Model Market block. 0n the site of the GAZETTE Building was Hoyt’s little 12x18 shoe shop, perched in air, with an oyster shop annex, and further west and across the open horse watering space to the pond and where Street’s Dry Goods store now is, stood John Burrall’s postofiice structure, about 28x24, with its eastern rear and standing on a post rising up out of the old pond. The old bridge was so narrow that when an ox cart from the east eon-outs to Hoyt's sloop chanced to meet on it a dray passing from the west,a panic was sure to seize upon any foot passers who might becaught upon its confined limits. But read the Ferry story, if you wish a more vivid portrait of the old time structure, known to the world as “Norwalk Bridge.” The Norwalk Fair. Arrangements for the County Fair at Norwalk on the 11th, 12th, 13th and 14th of September continue to be pressed for- ward, and there is every indication that it will be a most successful and interesting exhibition. Particular mention can be made of the entire revision of the pre- mium list. Among the new classes added 'we notice No. 24, oysters, clams and boats. Class No. 20,writing and drawing, etc.; this will particularly attract the young people. Class No. 22, Ladies’ In- dustrial, is entirely new, and the entire book seems to have been carefully pre- pared. The executive committec have in hand some novcl.spccialties; some of them contemplate “going up in a balloon," says the Bridgeport Standard. m— Lightning Strikes. The house of Wm. Barry just west of the Borough reservoir, was discovered on Sunday to have been struck by lightning, but when the owner and occupant has no idea. A hole was found cut through the roof and one of the rafters split and splintered .so as to ruin its utility, but where tbc.bolt then went is a mystery as no further signs are visible and the injury, being in the attic was not discovered until Sunday, when in hunting for a leak in the roof it was for the first time dis- covered. Insurance Agent 0. E. Wilson had a policy on the premiseslnnd will send a carpenter to repair damages. Notables to be at the 17th C. \'.’s Reunion. Gen. Amcs, who commanded the brig- ade to which the “old Seventeenth” was attached during the service of that regi- ment in the Army of the Potomac, has promised that he will endeavor to attend the reunion at Fairfield on the 28th inst.

Pine, speaker of the last House of Representatives at Hartford, who is remembered as the drummer boy of the Second Connecticut Artillery. 53 Important to our Farmer Readers. We shall hereafter publish in our Suture day’s GAZETTE a full New York Produce Market Report of the prices ruling there up to the time of puttingfithe semi~weckly to press. This report will also appear in our regular Tuesday’s edition, and ;any important changes iu-the market between Fridays and Mondays will be noted. With the especial care and pains we shall make to have these market reports always correct, they cannot fail to atld another valuable feature to the GAZETTE. The State Fair. The state fair will be held at Meriden on the 18th. 19th, 20th and 2lst of Sep- tember, and farmers are getting their stock and farm productsin good order for exhibition. ial enterprise in securing exhibits of dairy and fancy work with other domestic arti- cles, and are making active efforts to make a fine display in their work. The mana gcrs are hoping for a good display of man,- ufactured goods. #2:: A Popular Paper. The suddenncss with which our Satur— day ansm has sprung into popular fa- vor is something remarkable. No canvass ing was done to secure subscribers in ad vancc of the issue of the first number and it was purposely put out the dullest month of the whole year. Despite the very large edition printed on Saturday, we had no papers left at 8 o’clock a. m., and had to put the inside forms to press and run off half sheets to satisfy the demand. Wants Ills Marriage Disolved. Andrew S. Jarvis, 'who married hi5 wife, Jennie L. Jarvis, last October, is now, in a suit pending in the Supreme Court, seeking to have his marriage dissolved. He charges that his wife refused to ac ccpt his offer to provide her with a home and he charges that she has been unfaith- ful.—-Ne'w York World. We know noth ing of the lady in question, but parties hcrcabouts who are familiar with the man will be more apt to sympathize with her than with “General” Jarvis. The Hartford base ball association is to be incorporated under lhe joint stock laws of the state. The name of the organiza- - \ion will be "The Hartford Ball Ground Company,” and a meeting of the subscri- bars to the shares of the existing associa- tion will be held August 27 at 8 o'clock for the purpose of making the proposed clmuge. The par value of the shares of the association is now $10. This will have to be increased to $25 per share, in order to fulfill the requirements of the joint stock laws of the state. In reality, however, no change will be made in the par value of the stock as only 40 percent. of the capital need be paid in, and this is already more than covered by the ten dol— lar shares. The articles of organization of the new company will provide fora capital of $7,000, divided into 280 $25 shares. So successful has the base ball ground profed financially that it is thought best to have the association legal ly organized, with a board of directors, president, treasurer and secretary—Stan- dard. ' To Mr. Geo. Q._Whilucy of the Pratt Jo Whitney Co. of that place, the Harl- ford Iovcrs of ball playing are mainly in- debted for the pleasures afforded by the above association. With his ustomed energy Mr. W. took up the , act when it was almost dead and to hispush and cn-' “gr-prise the financial success of ’thc organ' ization is due. A small barn located near St. John‘s church Stamford was destroyed by the about half-past seven Saturday night. The barn was occupied “Colonel” llolly, who is engaged in the concrete walk busi- ness.

A Murder Suspected. . About six o'clock Thursday morning Mr. Edward Larrigan, an attache of Roton Point, discovered the dead body of a man floating in the water near the wharf at that place, about five rods from shore. He called for assistance, and securing the body to the wharf, started for South Nor- walk to inform Dr. Burke, the medical examiner. The doctor, together with Undertaker Gregory, went to the Point and, after collecting the necessary wit- nesses, held an examination. It was evi- dent that the mdn had not been in the water more than twelve hours, and the fact of the body floating, together with the looks of several ugly bruises on the head and nose, proved almoat conclusively that the deceased was unconscious when he was thrown or fell into the water. The corpse was attired in black diagonal pants, white cotton shirt, merino under- shirt, white cotton socks, linen collar, and a brown necktie with blue spots. The coat and vest were gone, and from the position of the hands,_which were thrown upward in an attitude of defense. the theory is advanced that deceued had‘bccn fighting and had removed his coat and vest. In one of his pants pockets were found several cards bearing the name of Henry Moehler, while in the hip pocket was a let- ter written in German, but no address or name was discovered upon it. An cu- velope was found in another pocket with a nameiwrittcn in pencil and addressed to Waterbury, Conn. The name on this en- velope was so indistinct that Examiner Burke could not decipher it.‘ After a thorough external 4 examination of the body the medical examiner decided that the man came to his death‘ by drowning, but finding a number of contusions on the head and a large bruise upon the nose, he concluded that there had been foul play, and adjourned the inquest pending the arrival of the coroner. County Coro- ner Holt had left for the Adirondacks the fore part of the week, but in response to a telegram, the deputy coroner, Joseph A. Joyce, came over from Bridgeport. Upon the circumstances being detailed to him, he held a consultation with Dr. Burke and the two officials decided to temporarr ily suspend operations until proper in- quiries could be instituted and an investi— gation of several suspicious circumstances set on foot. 'Mr. G. S. North was taken to the spot and took several photographs of the body, after which it was removed to Gregory’s undertaking establishment at South Norwalk. Harry Hill’s steamer “Flushing" brought a party of about three hundred persons, known as “The Cannon Club of the 19th Ward,” from New York to Dorlon’s Point, Thursday morning. There was a decidedly rough element on board who, after sundry-visits to the bar, became bois- terous and a number of small rows oc- curred. A theory advanced to the GA- ZETTE reporter was that the man either be- longed to or was with this club and, in some scrimmage which possibly occurred on the return trip, he was knocked or was thrown overboard. From the cir- cumstances surrounding the case this the- ory appeared to be the correct one and was generally believed by people cognizant of Another suggestion was that the body came from one of the Bridgeport boats and that the deceased was from Waterbury. In pursuit of this idea, which subscquently proved a correct one, Deputy Coroner Joyce went to Waterbury Fri- dayrto make inquiries, where he found that the name of .the deceased was, as shown by the cards, Henry Moebler, and that he had, up to a short time before his death, worked in that place. A nephew of the dead man came to South Norwalk that afternoon and positively identified the body as that of his uncle. At 4:30 Thursday afternoon Dr. Burke, taking photographs of the dead man, went to New, York city and laid the case before the police of that city. He was assured that the matter would be looked into and in case any evidence was pro— cured he would be notified. The following is the description of the body which'is that of a man about 36 years of age: Five feet, three and a quar- ter inches in height, dark hair, front part of head bald, hair long in back, grey eyes,. and when found had on calf-skin boots but little worn. Sixty-two cents were found in his pants’ pocket and that was all of value on the corpse save a pair of gold cuff-buttons and a gold shirt-stud. A formal inquest was held at the Putnam Hose House yesterday, and the following gentlemen were selected as jurors :—T. W. Powell, H. S. Brown, J. S. Dunning. J. M. Lane, W. '1‘. Crow, and C. F. Tollcs. Athorough examination of supmnmd witnesses was made and the deceased was traced to New York, and up to 3:30 p. or. Tuesday, when he went on board the Bridgeport steamer “Crystal Wave” at her dockin New York. An officer positively identified him and states that he saw Moebler go on the boat at that time and that he appeared to be slightlydntoxicatcd. From this time all trace is lost, but it is thought that the deceased went in Bridgeport and started to return to New York the next day and that, on the return trip, he got into some trouble or fight and was knocked or fel[ overboard. Late yesterday afternoon the jury rendered a verdict to the effect that the deceased came to his death at the hand of some person or persons to the jury unknown, and that while uncon- scious said Moehler fell into the water and drowned. A sister-in-law and two brothers were present at the inquest and superintended the disposition of the body which was taken to Waterbury at 2 p. m., yesterday. With the rendering of the verdict the matter passes out of the jurisdiction of the ' medical examiner and into the hands of the State’s attorney, who will institute such proceedings as may, in his judgment, seem proper. There is an air of deep mystery abdut the case and it is morally certain that a victim of foul play has been discovered, and in our opinion the matter should be thoroughly sifted as these promiscuous murders of parties on .the Sound steamers are getting to bc alto- gether too frequent. Dr. Bhrkc has worked the case through- out with exceptionnl energy and shrewd- ncss, and has proved conclusively that a more efficient and faithful man could not have been selected for the position of med- ical examiner. The Old Well flock and Ladder Picnlc. , There is likely to be a throng at Roton Point to-morrow, for on that day occurs the picnic of the Old Wcll 'Hook and Ladder Company, as it is a very" popular organization, and their numerous admirers well know that a day’s outing under their auspices, will be some- thing decidedly pleasant. The Wheeler & Wilson full band has been engaged, and there will be concerts' and dancing through the day and evening. ‘Therc will also be other attractions—boat racing, swimming matches, etc. Mademoiselle Marctta Myers, who has been engaged by Forepaugh for next season, has, at con- siderable expense, been induced to be present, and will give one of her wondc.~ ful exhibitions of walking and performing acrobatic fonts on a tight rope.

Judge Jeremiah Sullivan Black, who was a striking and familiar figure in Washington’s winterjcircles, died at York, Penn., on Sunday morning, his death be‘ ing peaceful and calm. Afew minutes before his death he spoke with confidence of the future, saying to his son Chauncey that he had no fear, and added “I would that I were as comfortable about what I leave behind in this world.” While his wife knelt at his bedside Judge Black gave utterance to the following impressive. prayer: “Oh Thou beloved and most merciful Father, from whomthud my being, and in whom I have ever trusted, grant, if it be Thy will, that I no longer suffer this agony, and that I be speedily- called home to Thee: and, oh, my God, bless and comfort this my Mary.” Soon afterward he kissed his wife good-bye, turned over on his side, and passed away. Judge Black was a fervent advocate of Democratic principles and a lawyer of great talents. He was attorney general in President Buchannan's cabinet and after- ward secretary of state.

Hoyt was found dead in‘ bed at his residence in Danbury on Tues- day morning of last week.’ He was nearly 90 years of age. having been born in Great Plain district Sept. 25, 1793. On arriving at the age of manhood be ac- cepted the position of clerk in his brother Russell’s store in Danbury, and in 1812 went into partnership with him. Five years later they engaged in batting, and in 1840 the deceased retired with a com- fortable competence. He took an active part in local matters, and worked hard for the success of the Danbury and Norwalk railroad of which he was the first president. serving in that capacity for 14; years. He was representative from Danbury in 1833-4 and senator from that district in 1844. He was an earnest Christian, and very be— nevolent, and for 50 years engaged in Sunday school work. Deceased leaves one son, Henry T. Hoyt of Danbury, and a daughter, the widow of .Hon. 0. H. Perry of Southport.’ ___.—— The Porchester and Ridgcflcld Road to he Built. The New York, Danbury and Boston Railroad company was organized in New York on Tuesday, with a capital of $3,- 000,000, and their line of road wrll extend from the Harlem river opposite Second avenue to Danbury where connection will be made with the New York and New England for Boston. The road from the Harlem river to Portcbester will be newly constructed. From that point. however, to Ridgeficld the work done by the New York and Ridgefield company, which con- sists of grading and masonry, and repre- sents $400,000 in money already expend- ed, will be utilized. Satisfactory arrange- ments between the directors of the two companies have been concluded, and the work will be commenced at once. Among the incorporators of the new organization are a large number of wealthy men,in- eluding P. C. Lounsbury of Ridgefleld, Geo. W. Quinlard and Elwood Birdsall of Portchester, Pliny Jewell and Geo. M, Bartholomew of' Hartford, and several weli‘known New York broken. The following persons,were elected directors of the new company: Christopher Mer- ger, New York; J. L. Macaulay, New York; G. W. Quintard, Portchcstcr; C. J. Osborne, New York; Pliny Jewell, Hartford; D. H; McAlpinc, New York; H. W. Ford, New York; George W. Bar- tholomew, Hartford; R. N. Hazard,New York; Elwood Birdsall,Portcbcstcr; W. R. Bergholz, New Rochelle, and William .I’. Abendroth, Portchester. Ofilcers were to be elected yesterday afternoon. Engineers started out on Monday to re- survcy the line from Portchestcr to Dan- bury, and we have it on reliable authority that the road will~be built within a year. ' Worshlping III the Woods. In place of the laughter of merry picnick- ers and terpsichoreau pleasures at Brook- sidc Park last week, there arose words and songs of praise, devout invocations and earnest exhortations, the camp meeting of the New York East M. E. district having been in progress. The attendance was quite large, with the exception of Thursday when the rain kept a crowd away, including the Rev. W. 11. Thomas who had intended to be present that day only. There was preaching on Tuesday by Rev. H. Aston of Greenwich, Rev. Dr. Crook of Mt. Vernon and Rev. B. Wason of Litcbficld; on Wednesday, by Rev. John Pegg of Danbury, and Rev. D. A. Goodsell of New Haven and Rev, W. P. Estes of New Canaan; on Thurs- day by Rev. Mr. Smith (colored) of Nor- walk, ah. Rev. G. Lansing Taylor of Ridgeficld. This meeting closed _Fri-' day afternoon. Masked Burglars in Fall-field. Five masked burglars entered the house of W. B. Hill, at Fairfield, Thursday night, handcuffed Mr. Hill, and his hired men, tied Miss Hill with ropes and ran- sacked the house. Mrs. Hill escaped and ran down the road, but was captured and brought back and securely tied. Mr. Hill usually has a large amount of money in the house, bus had made a deposit Thursday. The burglars secured a small amount of property, and subsequently drove in Hill’s carriage to Bridgeport which was found there. ' There have been no developments. It seems that the burglars ransacked the premises, and finally carried away a gold watch belonging to Mrs. Hill. The hand- cuffs had to be filcdofl the wrists of Mr. Hill and Henry Weller, the hired man. will open the season at Music Hall, with a representation of the celebrated play ~"Ouly a Farmer's Daughter."

The play has received the endorsement of Willie Winter of the New. York Tribune, F. L: Fontaine of the New York Herald, Thomas Keene of the Buffalo Courier, and, in fact, all the critics of the Eastern cities, and large audiences attest the popu- larity of the play and players. The theme is pure, the plot strong, the moral of the best and the story intensely interesting. We welcome such Amei'Icau plays. m Mr. Geo.

The fierce blowing of steam whistles by the drivers of locomotives day and night,particularly night, in the vicinity-of 4 the depot, is an unmitigated nuisance. It is believed that Supt.

An Englishman Arrested for ‘Incest With Ills Daughter. A revolting case of crime came to light at Cannons last week, an Englishman named Samuel Hall, employed at Lock- Wood’s 'wire mill, being charged with incest with his fourteen years old daugh~ ter. Hall was arrested by Deputy Sheriff Ells on Tuesday, brought to Norwalk and confined in the lockup over high” The next day he was taken before Justice Samuel Bennett at Cannons, and, plead- ing guilty, was bound over to the August .term of the superior court under $300 bonds. Being unable to obtain bail he was taken to Bridgeport jail. It appears thatHall,who is about 40 years old and has a wife and four children, has had intercourse with his daughter for the past three years. He is of intemperate habits and whenever he got on a spree he would force his daughter to gratify his desires and by intimidation kept her from revealing his incestuous practice. Last week in one of his drunken quarrels with his wife, Hall twitted her of being "jealous of him and the girl, and he let fall other things which aroused her suspicions. Sbc' thereupon closely questioned the daughter and learned from her the whole story. She was averse to having the affair become public, and tried to prevail upon her husband to go away and never come back. She gave him $5. but he refused to go unless the amount was increased. Mrs. Hall then started for Norwalk to prefer a charge against him, and be, hearing of her proposed action, left for New York to avoid arrest. He would have obtained a good job in that city, but a letter bad preceded him from South Norwalk, detailing his career,‘aud he was unsuccessful. Thinking that he was followed he concluded .to return home and was arrested immediately upon his reappearance. The subsequent dis- posal of his case followed as stated above. Hall is of ordinary intelligence and al- tributes his crime to drink. -——__.___..___.-_—_— Yale Busmess Gollege. ‘ The Yale Business College at New Haven, Conn., whose advertisement ap- pears in this issue of our paper, is de- signed to afford to young men who con- template a business‘life, a thorough and systematic course of commercial training.
