THE HISTORICAL SOCIETY.


 The handsome gift of our townsman. Henry F. English. of $5.ooO to the New Haven Colony Historical society, men, tioned yesterday is bestowed in mem ory of his uncle. the late William H. Fowler, the DixwelI avenue farmer, whose estate. valued at sSOO.OOO. was a great surprise at his death. The s5,000 is in the form of interest bearing bonds of high grade, the income of which will be devoted to the purchase of reference
 books and documents for the society, and other additions to the library. This gift supplements the erection of the building by MT. English at cost of at least S75,000 in memory of his father, the late ex-Governor James E. English. At the general and larger meeting which followed the directors meeting, at which MT. English's gift of s5,00O was accepted. Miss Rebecca D. Beach read an essay on "The Association of Loyal ists in Bedding and Western Connecti- cut at the Time Of the War of the American Revolution
 Miss Beach alluded very humorously to the primitive method of getting to Bedding Ridge at the present day. Her paper showed a vast deal of research. She alluded to the paper in which there were ninety-two signatures of the sym pathizers Of the king at Bedding. who denounced the continental congress as being subversive of law. order and re- ligion. Miss Beach gave list of many of the names of the loyalists of Bedding and told what became of many of them. After the war many of these royalists moved. some to Nova Scotia. some to England and some to New Brunswick. Some of them returned and settled again in this country.
 Miss Beach referred to the Danbury burning by Tryon as piratical invasion, in which he was paid by some of the loyalists who acted as guides. Miss Beach said the time had come when these loyalists could be viewed in dis passionate and fairer light than in the days of wore. Her paper was one of great interest. At its conclusion Henry T. Blake moved that vote of thanks be given Miss Beach for her graceful and admirable paper, which was unani- | mously adopted with enthusiasm.
 The Rev. Dr. Lines announced that l the most important of the papers and addresses given before the society would in the future be at once printed in
 pamphlet form instead of waiting till
 they were incorporated in volume.
 The first one will be Professor H. w.
 Farnam's address on Joseph B. Shef- aeld." The remarks by Judge S. E. Baldwin
 in presenting the oil portrait of the late
 Horace, Day, secretary of the board of education for many years, to the socie- | ty, were extremely appropriate and in- teresting, and fine tribute to that val uable and useful citizen. The portrait, which is fine one. was executed by Henry T. Thompson, and is a. much val
