passing thought of the possibility of even
hint of self destruction flashed into my
mind, but l refused to entertain it for a
moment, as too absurd. After talking

his desire for some one to talk to or be

confidence in me than in any one else"
Mr. Sanford added that he had concluded
that Mr. Turner killed himself, dreading
the loss of reasan which he feared was
about to attack him. AT the Blackman
house, it had been noticed that he was
quiet and taciturn and spent most of his
time in the house. He seemed very weak
and the mere exertion of going to the
barn and caring for the cattle would
cause him to perspire freely. He had
appeared no worse than usual, Thursday
morning and left the house quietly after
dinner, saying nothing and leaving no
token of his determination to carry out
the plan which had evidently been form
ing itself for days. The opinion that he
hung himself as soon as possible after
reaching the barn appears to be gaining

Work at the oil well had progressed
slowly until last week Tuesday, when
the bull wheel broke and O. w. Amber
was employed to repair damages, caus-
ing a delay of week. 1t was narrow
escape for the workmen at the well, but
no one was hurt and the new wheel of
solid oak is more substantial than the
old. A heavy iron about three feet long,
with strong barbs its whole length, is
used in removing the cable so as to re-
sumo sinking the well and it is drawn up
in small pieces not over foot or two in
length. When work stopped, they had
nearly reached the drill, stuck in the bot
tom of the well some months ago.

will be at once resumed in the north shop

graphophone company,which,s six months

Barnum, he watches the workmen putt
ing up the handsome fence to inclose the
beautiful grounds of Marina, their eleg-
ant residence. The fence will be sub
stantial, being made entirely of stone and
wrought iron. The stone coping and
huge gate and corner posts are from the
we'll known quarries of John Beattie at
Leete's Island. On each gate post rests
a carved lions head of Portland brown
stone looking as natural as life. On the
corner posts are huge carved balls of the
same material, on which is the name
Marina. On the coping, a wrought iron
fence of beautiful designs being placed.
The gates will be of wrought steel to
match the fence. This is being made
and put up by Price & Co. of Long Is
land City, who are the leading manufact-
urers of this kind of work. This will be
the finest fence in New England.

Another phase of the Coon-Terrill feuC
in Southbury is engaging the attention
of Justice Garfield, with Lawyer Warner
of Woodbury. for Coon and Judge Beech.
er of Newtown for Amos Terrill. The
suits grew out of a dispute over bound
airy and Coon had Terrill arrested for
taking rye from the disputed land, to
which Terrill claimed right. This was
decided by Justice Garfield and appealed
to the district court of Waterbury. On
charge of moving boundaries, Terrill
was next bound over to the Superior
court of New Haven county. A civil
suit for damages was brought mex and
tnat also was appealed to the Waterbury
district court. Two more charges have
been brought against Terrill, who was
tried, this week, before Justice Garfield
for threatening the lives of Coon and of
Aaron Gorham, who is understood to be
backing Coon. 1t will be noticed that
all these suits have been brought by Coon
or Gorham against Terrill; that he has
taken no legal steps, save to defend him
self when arrested.

Rebuilding Castle Ronald.

Plans for work at Castle Ronald during
the coming season have already been re-
ceived and work is to be begun as soon
as weather will permit. Arrangements
have been made with John j.. Hughes
and stone from his quarry Will be used
The quarry is near the pond, about a
quarter of mile from Mr. Hughes's
house and yields a superior quality OF
stone, greatly resembling the famous and
more costly Mine hill granite of Rox-
bury. Work hereiis to begin at once Jun
less the weather is very bad and the stone
will be hauled to the Peak, that suffic-
tine quantity may be on hand when, ear
ly in March, if possible, the work of
stone cutting and laying is begun at the
castle. AT present, only the teams of
Mr. Ronalds will be employed in handling
stone; later, others may be hired. From
II recent letter from Mr. Ronalds to his
agent here, G.. w. Stuart, it is learned
that he intends to come here about March
Is and will remain for the Summer, di-
New York and supervising the work on
the castle. While here, he will probably
make his home at the castle, arranging
room or two for sleeping and dining. The
burning of the main building has made
it necessary to make a few alterations in
the plans fer the east wing, which alone
will receive attention, next Spring. The
exterior dimensions will be the same,
1sxG4 feet, the side walls being about 30
feet high. The interior plans call for
two floors, on the lower of which will be
billiard room, picture gallery, dining
room and kitchen; above will be par
lor and three sleeping rooms. This, if
possible. will be finished early in the
Summer and some work may then be
done on the main building, whose walls
are not seriously injured. 1t is. thought
that but little will have to be taken down
and that few repairs or slight strength
ening will be sufficient to make the whole
as secure as before. Mr. Ronalds is still
enchanted with the air and the view OBJ
tanned ut Castle Ronald and is impatient
for the completion of the east wing,
where he expects to store quantity of
pictures and valuables which were not
placed in the castle before it was burned.
Little will be done on the west wing, but
it it is probable that the swimming bath
in which Mr. Ronalds takes delight will
be made ready for use.

John d. Coles, 20 years old, was cut
ting in j. Smith Robinson's woods, last
week Thursday, when his axe slipped,
cutting cash in his foot four inches in
length. After walking some distance,
Mr. Coles became SO weak from loss of
blood that he could only crawl and might
have persisted had not George Northrop
appeared as Good Samaritan, who
bound up his wound and, with the help
Of two others, carried him into Mrs
Weeks's.
The Weeks place is to be occupied by
its purchaser, Mrs Lefferd, April /. The
price paid was $1,000, as against $1,000
which Mr. Weeks paid for it.
