Bishop Williams and the Controversy
 In Trinity Church. NeWtOVVn.
 The committee appointed by the Right Rev. Bishop Williams to go to Newtown and hear the facts in the controversy between the Rev. MT. Haskins, rector of Trinity church, and fifteen of his parishioners whom he had re- pelled from the communion, have made their report to the Bishop. They found after a careful hearing of the case, which took place as previously reported, that both parties had acted in good faith and that the rector had made an error of judgment. The Bishop in accordance with this finding has restored the 15 members to the communion of the church. The grounds ot the difficulty were previously published, in substance, there being 10 charge of moral delinquency on either side except as involved in the alleged libel which the rector charged upon the fifteen gentlemen whom he repelled from communion. The rector had introduced changes in services which were considered inn ovations, and which were not deemed advisable by those who took exceptions, and the ether grounds of dissent were of like charAeter.

HoyL,s Case,


 A gentleman impressed with the belief that Edwin Hoyt was to some extent insane when he killed his father, proposes to make an ef- fort on his own account to save him from the galIows. His intention is to addeess peti- tion to the Governor setting forth the opin- ion that Hoyt was suffering from dementia at the time he committed the crime, and asking that respite be granted him until the next assembling of the Legislature, and also that a committee of physicians be appointed to ex- anime him for the purpose of reporting upon his mental condition, as regards tendency to insanity. The petition further proposes, in case the respite is granted, that Hoyt's case be made subject of investigation by commit tee of the next Legislature with view to having his sentence commuted to imprlson- ment for life in case reasons for such cause are furnished by the results of the medical inquiry. Several lawyers who have been spoken to about the proposed petition fxpress willingness to sign it, and the plan ] IS also the approval of H. s. Sanford, one oi Hoyt's lawyers Waterbury American.

Parties in Milford and Orange report that it had the appearance of g fire in the woods on the Isl- and. There was black, funnelshaped cloud rolling up like thunder head, and behind it a beautiful white column. It was very in teresting spectacle. Parties who watched it some time say they observed sheets of flame, in the perspective, and believed the black substance to be smoke. Later nothing was to be seen except trailing black line, apparent Iy of smoke, just above the Long Island hills.

Death of J. C.. Woodward, of Fair
 HaVens

Death of J. c. Woodward, of Fair Haven.
 Fair Haven East has lost one of it's most esteemed citizens and most prominent busi- ness men in the death of MT. James O. Wood ward who expired at his residence on North Quinnipiac street, in that borough, yesterday morning at eleven o'clock of dropsy, after an illness of three months. The deceased had almost invariably enjoyed fine health until stricken with the disease which terminated 1 his life. His career had been one of useful ness and honor. He was born in the village of Woodwardtown. in East Haven. August | 27th, 1908. In his early youth he took a clerkship with Asa Bradley, still well rsmem- bered by our older citizens as long 8 leading dealer in family groceries, doing business on l State street near Grown. Young Mr. Wood ward, after some years of service in this ca pacity, took a store in Fair Haven East, the | same which he had at the time of his death. It was in 1885 that he there commenced busi- ness for himself, his line being the same as ! that in which he had become familiar in MT. Bradley's. He had for many years partner, his cousin MT. l.. Woodward, the firm being J. c. & L. Woodward. The partnership was dissolved in 1860, Mx. Woodward continuing at the old stand. He commenced his business as a temperance store, ever maintaining it as such. MT. Woodward had been for twenty years past agent for Adams Express in Fair Haven East. He was also long prominently identified with the eoasting interests of Fair Haven, having been share owner in many different coasting vessels, and at one time he was similarly interested in the West India trade. He was also a director in the Merchants National Bank from the organization of that institution, in 1851, to the time of his death, It is worth noting that Mir. Woodward was for forty-ive years in business in the same store, and had for about the same period resided in the same house, substantial resi- dence on North Quinnipiao street, erect cd by him shortly after his marriage. His wife was Miss Lydia Holt, daughter of Philemon Holt, 8 prominent citizen of East Haven, who passed away years ago. The family is numerously represented in this city by marriages with prominent people. The homestead of the deceased was ever open to the claims of hospitality, and not few of the leading clergymen in the State will recall pleasant hours spent under her hospitable roof. Mir. Woodward was ever liberal SUD- porter of divine worship, regular attendant at the Second Congregational church, and a man of strict, unwavering integrity. His word was his bond, and he was ever a most valuable citizen. He had been frequently but unavailingly solicited to take responsible pub lie offices, his preference leading him to de- cline public position. Quiet, unostentatious,
 
 be much missed from the community which he had honored for near half a century He leaves three daughters. Another daughter died few years ago in this city much be- loved and mourned. The funeral of Mir. l Woodward will probably take place Saturday. | In several nsrta of fhe stata tha zoods have hee m
