"Oh," said the Captain, nervously

Halo! where's the trap-door?'
And it took the militiamen fully sixty
seconds or more to realize that the trap

Mrs Julia Judd, widow of the late

grandfather, Dea Daniel Judd. Mrs
Judd was born in the old house now
standing on Hoyt's Hill, January II,
1914. In her seth year, she is enjoying
fairly good health. Her memory on
present events Is somewhat / impaired with
age, but is still clear on events of the
past. Mrs Judd's visit brings to mind
many "reminiscences Of her early days

the village and saw the great fire that
destroyed most of the IhOuses. During
the winter of 1878 and 1879, Gen Putnam
with a small army OF soldiers came and
encamped in the woods about one and a
quarter mile southeast Of our home. In
those days a cart path led down to the
camp through the woods from the Chest
nut Ridge road. This made a short route
to draw supplies from Danbury and other
places. During that winter several fl
GERS from Putnam's army boarded with
our family. Our big oven was heated
up two or three times a week to bake
bread, cake and pies for the boarders
and the family. A big fire was never al

in the kitchen. Large back logs and
plenty Of wood was ALWAYS kept on hand
