There seems to be no doubt now that
the proposed Meriden-S outhington troll
ley line is soon to be an actually. The
town for some weeks past has been
divided against itself. Many thought
that the trolley company was not sin
cere in it's proposals. Others had faith
in the company and looked forward
with assurance to the summer months
when they might like a delightful ride
by trolley through green fields and
over the end of the mountain into Mer-
iden. All doubts will be thrown to the
winds when the Journal and Courier
readers are told that the Southington
layouts have been accepted by the
trolley officials and the 81, 900 bond fled
Yesterday morning Messrs. Atwater
and Hurley of Meriden, representing
the trolley company, came to Southing-
ton and signed the acceptance of both
the town and borough layouts. They
also filed with Town Clerk Lewis the
required $1,000 bond. Now they build
OF forfeit; and the probability is that
the cars will be running as far as this
town before the summer is over.
