East Haven Will Have Special Town
Meeting.
An important town meeting is to be
held in the East Haven Town Hall
this week either on Wednesday or
Thursday evening. The meeting is for
the purpose of considering the matter
of an appropriation for a state road.

extension to Foxon would be about one

should be on the main road leading
