SARTIAL R. GILLETTE'S DEATH.

Last Sunday morning two young ladies, the Misses Mulverhill, who were on their way to early Mass at Norfolk, were mortified by finding the mangled remains of Sartial Gillette on what is known as the Mulvsrhill crossing on the P. R. < N. E. road in East Canaan. Gillette and two other men had been fishing for bullheads in Wood Greek pond in Norfolk the night before, but Gillette had taken his lantern and start ed for home before midnight. It is thought that Gillette fell into the cattle guard which Is near the crossing and was caught by the cars before he could get out. The reasons for this theory are that his lantern was found unil jur- ed in the bottom of the cattle guard, while his remains were scattered along the track for some distance beyond. An east bound freight had left Canaan at l2 20 a. m. Sunday and Gillette's watch was found to have stopped at l 45 a. p,. The track makes a reverse curve we. of this crossing, which fact probably caused Gillette to miscalculate the dis tance of the train. The remains were badly mangled, the head, one arm and one leg being severed from the body.
 The funeral was held on Tuesday at II o'clock, at the East Canaan church, Rev H. Utterwick officiating. Burial in the Hillside cemetery.
 Mir Gillette had been living on farm at East Canaan recently purchased by his father. He leaves wife, but no children, also his father, mother and a sister, Mrs Spencer, who lives in Tor rington. He was 30 years of age.

A Loud Call Upon a Poet.

 A poet bursts into song in the Hart ford Times:
 Tell me, whore do the daisies grow?
 With pleasure. There are several beds of them in Poquetanuck, we believe. where they may be said to be real thick.

MT White was the son of Andrew and Charity White and removed with his parents from Middlebury to a farm bought of Mir Harris, over 50 years ago. His mother was consistent member of the Congregational church, and with the family was regular attendant, driving four miles during all seasons of the year, and the son united with this church in 1850. For several years he followed the profession of a school teacher and in later years was a correspondent for several local papers. Since the organization of the Hull's Hill Sunday school he mani fested deep interest in it and has been connected with it, either as superinten- dent or teacher. A few weeks ago he was confined to the house, but had partially recovered and had taken several lengthy journeys since. He retired as usual on Thursday evening and in the morning was found dead. The bearers were Cyrus Gray, Edson Mallory, George Smith. Elmer Lewis, Samuel Barr and Mir Huggins. He leaves a wife, but no children.
