The residents Of Merwin's Point are
divided in regard to the laying of the pro-
posed electric road from Savin Rock to
Merwiu's Point. Mr.. R. w. Mills, the
State street grocer here, had not heard of
anyone who cared to oppose the building
of the line. Mr.. Frederick L.
Averill thought that most of the
people did not care if the road was built,
as it would be quite convenient. Mr.. G.
NJ Walker of the Charles Monson company,
this city, said several Of the cottagers had
expressed to him the opinion that they did
not want the road, as it would be likely to
bring a rough element to the quiet shore
The people had built down there to be &C.
cluded and away from noise and confusion
and did not want the road. The stage ran
to the Woodmont depot and the trains ran
to New Haven at nearly every hour of the
day, so that the cottagers were content to
do without the proposed road.
Several other people were interviewed in
regard to the road and most of them were
vigorously opposed to havingi it. The out
ot-town residents were particularly 30. 1t
is thought by some at the point that the
matter will be opposed in the legislature
and may end in not having it built.
William Hubbell of Birmingham rode
to Merwin's Point on Sunday by way of
Milford and reached Sanford's in fifty-eix
minutes. This is the best time made on a
wheel to the point, and previous to Hub
BELLS ride sixtyone minutes was con-
sidered the best time.
Robert Flynn and William Hubbell of
Birmingham have rented the Smith cot
tage at Merwins Point for the first two
weeks in August, when it will be taken
possession by party of seven Birming-
ham young men, who intend to keep
bachelors hall.
