 Storrs of Seymour of Litchfield, Nathan l.. Bishop of Norwich and Edwin B, Gager of Derby.

There was quite Washout in Chapel street just west of the West river bridge There the road was car ried away for a space about seventy five feet long and fifteen feet deep. In the same vicinity on Edgewood avenue there was another washout near the street railroad bridge which spans the river. This caused the street railway some bother and cars were not run over this line for several hours. A gang of men was put at work and they soon filled in the places scooped out by the rush of waters and gave the rails
