The sharon Bell Case.

The case of Mrs Amy E. Cole vs. Misses Laura O. and Emily Wheeler (better known as the Sharon Bell easel, was tried before the Superior court with Judge Torrance presiding, at Litchfeld last week. The facts of the case were briefly as follows: In the summer of 1885 the Misses Wheeler, wealthy ladies from New York and hay ing a summer residence in Sharon, leased of one Henry J. Taylor, @ small parcel of land in the village of Sharon, directly in front of the Sharon hotel (managed by Solomon Kirby and with in abont 120 feet of the same, and in the public highway. Upon this lot of land they caused to be erected beautl- ful stone tower, about 60 feet high. In the top of the tower, which was unen- closed, was placed large bell weighing 2,550 pounds, and clock so arranged and connected as to strike (with steel hammer weighing between 60 and 70 pounds), the hours of the day and night.
 The clock commenced striking in October 1885, at time when the gnests of the hotel had returned to their homes in the cities. In Che spring and sum- mer of 1886 it was ascertained that the very loud noise made by the striking of the clock was excessively annoying to the guests and occupants of the hotel In the spring of 1887 the Misses Vince Ter consented that the striking of the clock should be discontinued through the summer months. In July, 1887, a petition was circulated in Sharon requesting the Misses Wheeler to com mence the striking of said clock again "as soon as may be without injury to any," In the latter part of July, 1887, the Misses Wheeler notified the mana. ger of the hotel that the striking of the clock would be resumed September 1st, 1887. On the 31st day of August, 1887 temporary injunction was served upon the Misses Wheeler, restraining them from striking the clock as they had contemplated doing. A large number of dispositions, 70 or more, were taken by the plaintiff and defendants in New York city and Sharon, and on Tuesday of last week the trial commenced before Judge Torrance at Litchf1eld. Between two and three days were occupied in the trial of the same and after the argu- ments for the plaintiff by Messrs Rora- back, of Canaan and Judge Huntington of Woodbury, and M. W. Seymour and 8 New York lawyer by the name of McKeen, for the defendants, it is repor- ted that the Judge (without intimating what his decision would bel suggested enclosing the west opening of the tower nearest the hotel. and that other steps be taken to lessen the noise about the hotel.
 It IS understood that the Misses Wheeler will at once consult their architect and bell founder as to the best way Ito lessen the noise, and that acting upon the suggestion of the Court they will at once try and remedy the incon- venience complained of.

 Quite a number of our citizens atten- ded court at Litchfeld last week, on the town clock case. The hearing was before Judge Torrance. The decision has not been given yet. The defendants, the Misses Wheeler, Plaintiff, s. Kirby. For the benefit of the readers of THE NEWS, who are not familiar with the case, we will try to enlighten them a little. A little over year ago, 8 lady came from the city to board at Kirby s hotel (the clock tower stands in front of the hoteD, she claimed that the striking of the clock disturbed her so she could not sleep, and complained to the land lord. He complained to the Misses Wheeler, and asked them to stop it's striking, as it would ruin his business and drive away his boarders. To accom- modate Kirby, they stopped the strik- ing part of the clock until the boarders should leave town. In the mean time Kirby had an injunction put on said clock, to stop it's striking forever, hence this lawsuit. Whether the clock will ever strike where it now IS remains to be decided by Judge Torrance. Also in the mean time there were papers circulated among the people of Sharon to find out their feelings about having it strike. There was TOP in favor of striking. and not over 12 against it. Thus you can see the people did not consider 1t nuisance, as was claimed by the opposing party.
