Railway Questions.

The question Of having a new depot on
the railroad at this place and changing a
dangerous grade crossing has been talked
of for some time. Last spring surveys
were made, and the people asked to meet
the railroad officials and agree upon
something satisfactory to all concerned.
Nothing definite was done, and soon it
was given out that nothing further
would be done this season. The first OF
the present month a petition was circu-
lated and freely signed by people on both
sides of the river. asking the railroad
commissioners to look over the ground
and make such orders as in their judge
ment the circumstances demanded. We
are informed that the Railroad Co.
have also since this petition was in cir
culation asked the railroad commission
ers to look over the ground and are now
quite anxious to build a new depot and
have the highway run under the track

Importance as this one demands that the
Railroad Co. furnish their customers
with accommodations very much better
than they have enjoyed for the past 25
years.

Annual Letter of Rev. L. II. Elliot to tn
Sunday School Children.

Annual Letter of Rev. L. II. Elliot to the
Sunday School Children.
The 10th day of September is suggest
ed by Mr.. Elliot as Bible Sunday, and he
sends note to pastors and superintend-
ents asking them on the Sunday previous
to remind the members Of each School
that it is desired that the children earn
the money given, and also write letters
telling how the money was earned. Lib
eral responses have come in the past,
and the society again looks for help.
Mr.. Elliot has been successful in enlisting
the interest of children. They certainly
will not fail him this year. The follow
ing is his letter to them:
WATERBURY,, W., August 10, 1895.
Dear Sunday School Friends:
| am coming to you again this year, as
in the past, asking for your personal
help. wish could tell you how much
good your offerings have already done
how many receiving Bible or Tcsta-
ment from you, have thanked you in
their inmost heart and have asked God
to bless you for your kindness. God has
promised that his word should not re-
turn unto him void, and so we know
that much good must come from the
thousands OF Bibles scattered by the YER
mont Sunday Schools, while the donors
have been richly blessed in giving.
lam sure that you would be glad iievery-
body in our state, our country, and the
world was the owner of a Bible. You
can do something to help buy one for the
poor and the unfortunate. You can
bring to your school on the 18th OF Sep
TENDER, which | call "Children's Bible
Sunday" or any other day which your
superintendent may select, your thank
offering. We want to keep up the sup
ply Of Bibles i'll all of the public nstitu-
tons of the state, such as the Soldiers
Home, State Prison, House of Correc-
ton, and many Others. We want to
encourage and help Mission Sunday
Schools in their work, to aid the blind in
seeing and understanding the truths of
the Bible, and we want to visit the col
ored schools Of the South with the light
OF Gods truth, and even to go across the
sea and distribute among the children of
Bohemia on the coming Christmas the
words of eternal life.
Were offerings sufficiently large and
numerous we would like to undertake
new lines of Bible work.
hope that every member in their par
ticular school, the older as well as the
younger will bring an offering on Bible
Sunday-as many pennies as years old.
Will you? And you? And you, do that ?
And will the children both earn their
money and also write me letters telling
how it was earned
shall look anxiously for offerings and
a letter from each of you, and then
shall expect you will pray Tor blessing
on the gift and upon all who receive it,
AS ever, your sincere friend,

Ordination of Rev. II. l.. HartweH.

The ordination and installation of
Harry L. Hartwell, Wednesday, Aug.
IS, was attended with bright skies, full
houses, and interesting exercises 'rhe
review of the action OF the church and
the examination of the candidate took
place in the morning, in the presence OF
large number of his parishioners. Save
in the formality OF providing for the
financial support OF the pastor in the
votes OF the society, provision winch
had in fact been made by the committee
personally, the action OF the church and
society was regular. In the examination
of doctrinal belief, Mr.. Hartwell present
ed for substance the report OF the creed
commission, making the most of the
statements in his own language, and
showing himself well able to give the old
faith in modern phraseology, and in
modern perspective. Careful questioning
brought out no pride in theories and
Speculations beyond modest limits, and
no inclination to Re dogmatc or assertive
on controverted points. The position of
the candidate was heartily and unani-
mously approved.
The ordination and installation ser
vices were held in the afternoon, the
audience filling the house. Rev. F. +.
Lewis offered the prayer of invocation
and read the Scriptures. The sermon
was by Rev. ]. X. Williams, and the
PRAYER OF ordination by Rev. S. Knowl-
ton. Rev NJ. b. Davenport gave the
charge to the pastor with rare felicity OF
speech, and Rev. H. Dewitt Williams the
right hand of fellowship with cordial
word and hand grasp, The address to
the church was by Rev. {. H. Merrill.
Mr. Hartwel wasa member OF the last
class in Yale Seminary, and came to
Cabot directly after graduation. In
June he brought his bride, born in India,
the daughter of Rev. Richard Winser OF
the Marathi Mission. Miss Winser has
made her home in this country with her
uncle Rev. Calvin Cutler of Auburndale,
and was educated at Lassell Seminary,
and received Normal School training tor
kindergaI ten work. After brief exper
fence in teaching, she comes to the duties

Mr.. Russell, at present removed to Con-
nccticut, has given them possession otms

There was present at the ordination,
far advanced in years, Mr., Stone, whose
three brothers have been well known
ministers in Vermont and who remem
bered the installation of one of them
ity-three years ago in this church in his
native town. He and sister, the wife
OF Deacon Stimson OF Norwich, are the
sole surviving members of their gen
