COMMUNICATIONS FROM THE MAYOR

COMMUNICATIONS FROM TIE MAYOR.
The mayor pro tenn. stated that
the city at present had small
elephant on it's hands, and did not
know what TO do. A mere child
had been arrested several times and
fined for vagrancy. She was at
present under a $40 fine, and it
seemed that the only law that APP
piled TO the case was unavailable by
reason of her age. lie thought that
the council should remit the fine
The council acted accordingly and
several aldermen were vigorous in
their condemnation OF the spirit of
enlightenment of the Nineteenth
century which provided no place for
such cases, no reformatory, save
when convicted of felony.

in the town of Lyme. He sent ne- gro slave to occupy the premises. The Indians were too hostile for the slave to venture to remove his family from the fort at saybrook. so he occupied the cabin alone.
 It became known as Black Hall, which. according to tradition Is the proper name of the village. The old negro was very highly respected by Mir. Griswold. and the name given to the cabin he occupied may have been given to the village to perpetuate his memory. At that time 1t was part
 f East saybrook, but was subsequent
 set ofr as a part of the town of old Lyme.
 On q high elevation. known as Meet! Ing House hill. a short distance west of the village. are a few sunken graves. one of which Is the last resting place of the old negro who occupied Black Hall The first church built In the town stood on this elevation. It was struck by lightning and burned few years after 1t was built. Another was Dullt on tHt bitc UT tuc NTbt OHc, put after a short time 1t was struck by lightning and burned. A third was built, but in a few years shared the fate of It's predecessors.
 Near where these churches stood Is an old mile stone. said to have been placed there by Benjamin Franklin when he was postmaster of the colon- les. It stands near the old stage road from New York to Boston. The old Chaplin house stood near 1t, in which Colonel Buckner was married to a daughter of Colonel Kingsbury. The groom was dressed in uniform. Dur ing the marriage ceremony 1t was an- nounced that neighborlng house was on fire. The groom asked that the cere- mony be deferred while he assisted to extinguish the fire. He returned with his uniform nearly ruined and the cere- mony was concluded.

WHERE THE NAME STARTED.
Black Hall Called After 8 Negro Wh,
 Lived in a Cabin.

Lived in a Cabin.
 [New London Day.]
 On the Consolidated road just this side of the Connecticut river is the small village of Black Hall, where the Bulkeley boys frequently go to play ball with the Black Hall academy nine. The question is often asked of how Black Hall got it's name, and there are few people who can correctly answer it. In 1645 what is now known as Black Hall was the home of Mathew Gris- wold, member of one of the oldest and most distinguished families of the time. He built a large log cabin, the first house or residence ever built
