THE LOCAL COURTS.

Judge Gideon Welch of the Court of Common Pleas held court in town, Tuesday. The case of the town of New Milford vs. Isaac Northrop, which was to have come up for consideration, was reported settled. Attorney Marsh ap- peared before the court and requested that the case of Lines against Senior be restored to the docket. This was opposed by Attorney Nickerson of West Cornwall. Judge Welch declined d to restore it to the docket. On Friday Judge Welch will hold court in Win sted to try the case of John J. Hart nett ys. James Wheeler. This is a case growing out of the Presidential election of 1900. It appears Hartnett was hired by Wheeler to furnish horses to draw an old coach about in a .polit- ical parade. Hartnett failed to get his pay and so brought suit in a justice court and won his case.

 Editor of THE BEE: I attended a large meeting of the tobacco growers of this vicinity at the Capitol building, Hartford, March 9. Another mass meeting of the Housatonic Valley growers is to be held in the Town hall, New Milford, on Monday next at p. m., when speakers that attended this meeting. Monday, will be there to ex- plain the problem of a united action, to assist the poor growers. suggest ed to the New England Homestead man that notice of this meeting be sent to you, which they may do, and for fear it may not reach you in time I write you. Please give it a conspicuous notice so that your readers will be sure and see it. Something must be done to counteract the absorb ing of the tobacco interests by the American Tobacco Co.,, and this plan' if a majority join, will do the business and yield the farmer a good percentage for his crop above what they are get ting now or will hereafter.

 LENT RECORD.
 Albert H. Fairchild, one of the oldest residents of Meriden, died at his home, 21 Queen street, Saturday evening at GAO, aged Il years. HIS death might be attributed to a bicycle acciG ant three years ago, when he was run over by wheel, causing injuries that re- suited in kidney trouble. Mir Fair child was carpenter by trade and for years, until he was obliged to give up work, was employed at Manning, Bow man & Co.'S factory. MT Fairchild was born in New Milford, June 27, 1881, and came to Meriden in Septem- Der. 1866, securing position as a car penter with the Lyon & Billiard Co.,, remaining in their employ until they went out of that branch of business. He then secured place with George Gay. When Manning, Bowman & Go. removed from Middletown to Meriden in 1872, he entered their employ, and held the position until three years ago. The deceased served in the Civil War and was discharged with d remarkably fine war record, through which he re- ceived a monthly pension of $50. It has been conceded that he held one of the best war records hereabouts. He enlisted in Company K, First Iowa Cavalry, May 16, 1861, and served until February 15, 186e,a period of four years and 10 months. He engaged in more than 50 battles and three skirmishes. This command was in the iercest en- agreements, and it received honorable mention for bravery. After taking up his residence in Meriden, MT Fair child became member of Merriam post, G. A. R. He held the office o1 quartermaster in the post for severa years. His first wife was Julia Knigh ] of Bridgewater, who died January s 1877. One son was born to them, wht
 died November Is, 1893. In 1880 M
