 It is not unlikely that another town may soon be added to those which now skirt the Sound from the Housat0nic to the York State line. The new town, if formed, will probably be called South port and will comprise parts of the pres ent towns of Westport aud Fairfield. The southern boundary would be the sparkling blue waters of the Sound; the western, a line running between Greens Farms and Westport; the northern, d line intersecting the lower portion of Greenfield Hill; the eastern, a line be- tween the villages of Southport and Fair field. The exact boundaries are, of course, not yet known and, in fact, none of the preliminares are arranged. But the matter has been talked of not little by leading men in Greens Farms and Southport, and, to q certain extent, in Westport. Westport, of course, is averse to the project and so may Fairfield be-; but Southport is, apparently, perfectly willing to become the center of a new town which should bear it's name. And Greens Farms people say that they have long entertained this idea. This new town would not be large in extent, but it is quite thickly settled and the people are prosperous and enterprising. As voiced 1 by resident, the sentiment in Greens Farms appears to be something like this : l ssWe feel and have felt for years that we belonged to Southport more than to ] Westport. We are but mile from the former, most of our business is done there and our mail is sent there. Vest
 port is further away and there doesn't,
 somehow, seem to be a spirit of perfect
 unity. Friction constantly occurs and, probably, always will occur, at least as
 long as we remain as we are. This move
 ment may not cu.m.nste at once, but, sooner or later, think that it will come. Ani the times appear to be riper for the change now than aG aisy previous time. 1 I think there is no doubt that the new
 town will be called Southport. It is by
 far the most appropriate.
