The Dunmoyv Fitch.


The Dunmow Fitch of Bacon Festival
was yesterday celebrated in the meadows
on the causeway at Great Dunmow, about
two miles from the site of the old Priory at
Little Dunmow, now occupied by the par
ish church where the custom is supposed
to have had it's origin.
This years celebration of the festival was
unique, by reason of the fact of one of the
couples who were awarded fitch being
very advanced in years. They are Mr.. and
Mrs. Joseph Hird, and they live at Turner's
Road, Burdett Road, Bow. Hird is an army
pensioner and his age is seventy nine years,
his wife being few years his junior. As
Mrs. Hird's health has been failing of late
it was not thought advisable that they
should make the journey to Dunmow on
the day of the trial, and they were, there
fore, escorted to the town on Saturday and
quiet lodging obtained for them. The 9TH
or couple are Mr.. and Mrs. Dennis Bridg-
man of Tycoe Villa, Allenby Road, Forest
Hill. Mr.. Bridgman is thirty eight years
of age, and is engaged in The city. Five
claims were received by the committee this
year, but two of the couples could not face
the ordeal of the trial and the oath taking,
and the remaining couple, who occupy a
high social position in Birmingham, were
disqualified, as they were only married on
August last, and were, therefore. unable
to boast conjugal felicity of "a twelve
month and day."
The trial took place in large booth,
which was packed to overflowing, the total
number of persons present being about
5000. At one end platform was erected
for the judge, jury, claimants. counsel, and
officers of the court. In front the two
Aitohes were suspended from pole. Short
ly before four o'clock Lord and Lady
Brooke, Col. Lockwood, N. p, and dis
| tinguished party entered the court and
seated themselves Immediately below ths
platform, Ten minutes latss the claimants
Morning journal and courier., 1892-10-14


If the truth is told about that storage
battery railroad in Milford, Massachusetts,,
it behooves people to keep an eye on it.
The Cambridge city government sent a
committee to Milford the other day, and a
most exhaustive and severe test was made
of the road. A car was loaded with a
weight equivalent to seventy-one persons
and was run with this load for distance
of thirty miles without recharging its bat
terry, and at the end of this hard test it
was found that the battery had lost but
seven per cent. of its voltage. The COM
mittee was unanimous in praise of the
storage battery and will, it is said, recon-
mend its adoption at Cambridge. The bat
teries used in these cars have been greatly
improved the weight being reduced one-hslf
and the power being increased two-fold. The
men who have made this improvement and
who have thus proved that the storage
battery system is a practical success, make
a most interesting profession of the faith
which they have in their invention. They
see in the future great field for this "bot-
tied electricity" for electricity they claim
can actually be stored up in bottles, ready
for use in running bicycles, sewing ma
chimes, steam and nsptha launches and
innumerable other kinds of machinery
and running gear. Men will buy bottled
electricity, they think, as they now buy
kerosene, and by attaching the bottles to
wires in their houses may have complete
private electric light plants, the bottles to
be returned for recharging, as one sends
his oil can to the grocer's to be filled.
Why nots After what has been done it
won't do to be very skeptical.
