Called her Puss.

Yesterday was q gala day in the Re-

An Eccentric Character

MT. John Danforth, an old and well known
 morning at his home in that place, after 8 brief illness induced by bronchial troubles.
 MT. Danforth came to New London in 1920 from Taunton, Mass. and entered the en- chants, as confidential clerk and business manager. Business reverses and the early death of his wife preyed on the young man, and he became insane The IeLegrana says
 He never regained his former powers, and his recovery left him with the harmless eccentric ities for which he has of late years been dis tinguished. One of his favorlte hobbies was to correspond with notable men all over the country diversion in which he met with singular success, as various albums which are among his effects at test Another peculiarity was his almost childish delight in seeing his name in print,
 and many were the devices to which he re- sorted to secure newspaper notoriety. He was especially fond of occupying any posi- tion of quasi-authority, and for many years he has received commissioners slips from the Governors of various States in the Union,
 without the usual accompaniment of certif- cate fees. Several years ago he married the widow of Jonathan Brooks, and she survives him. When the Mustache Fusileers were or ganized Danforth was dubbed with the title of general, distinction which he proudly wore until his death. His face and figure were known to every New Londoner, and his familiar presence will be missed on the streets and in the public resorts he was wont to fre- Quent.

Michael curnan,s License.

The case against Michael Curnan came be fore the County Commissioners yesterday or petition of Dwight w. Futile, Esq, that
 the license of Curnan. be revoked for selling liquor to minor. Judge Blydenburgh ap.
 peared for the defendant and moved to quash
 the proceedings, first because the complaint and summons had been signed by the same
 person-Mr Futile, who acted both as in. forming officer and magistrate, and second, because Curnan, although fined in the City Court, had taken an appeal to the Superior Court and therefore there was no record that he had been convicted of violating any law Furthermore, if the commissioners revoked his license, it would prejudice his criminal case in the Superior Court. Again, it was not in accordance with the spirit of our laws that where a more serious criminal case was pending, case like the present one should be decided which might result in prejudging the more important case. The attorney con cluded by making request for delay until the appealed cases were decided at the next term of the Superior Court making the point that otherwise it might happen that the pres ent court might forfeit Curnan's license while in the Superior Court'he might get ac- quilted.
 MT. Futile said it was not necessary to dis cuss the point that the complaint and sum- mons were both signed by him; that was common practice in law and perfectly legiti- mate. Mir. Futile argued that if attention was paid to MT. Blydenburgh's plea for de- lay until the appealed cases were decided in the Superior Court, it would result practi cally in defeating the law; for all an accused person in future need do in such case would be to appeal to the Superior Court and there the case might be settled or nolled. The Board of County Commissioners were made a court by the Legislature to try such cases as these and there need be no attention paid to any cases pending in any other court. fhe Commissioners, after deliberation with closed doors, decided that they would not
