it would be secure, the society rather di-
recting that some at least should be in
vested in bank stocks, il the mar ayers
thought best. So in 1925 they had it all
invested in the Eagle Bank, which fail
in 1926, and the whole fund was -,
much to the grief of the society and
church.
The society seems to have taken much
interest in the matter of improving the
singing in the church, for in 1895 and
years following they appointed COM
mittee to raise funds to have a singing
school in the parish to improve the sing
ing of the people. In 1900 they voted
that S25 be paid out of the regular funds
OF the church for teaching the singing in
the art of Psalmody, and also in 1918
the society's committee was authorized
to pay Sl2 towards the teaching of the
sir gtng school in the society. The sys-
tenn of levying tax for the support of
the gospel seems TO have been given up
in 1927, and that of renting the seats in

subscription. adopted by the society. Be-

SO that at meeting called November,
1881, it was voted, that we consider IL

voted, that the money for building the
meeting house be raised by subscription
in snares of $40 each to the amount Of
300 shares. Dea DeForest. Garry Perry
and Daniel Bennett were appointed

presented to the Assembly In May, but
was most earnestly opposed by the agent

reached, by which the two parishes
should unite in preferring memorial to

two parishes be incorporated into one
town for all and every purpose proper to
be transacted at freemen's meeting and
that each of said societies of Ripton and
New Stratford remain separate and dis

memorial was prepared by the two par.

within their bounds, and presented to the
General Assembly at New Haven, May,
