 Robert Hayes and William McDon- aid, two well known members of the Merrimac Athletic club, are the butt of much joking upon the part of their friends, The two young men attended private social gathering in Nauga- tuck on Tuesday night. They reached there by train, but returned to Water bury on foot. They fingered little too long at the festivities and missed the last train from Naugatuck to this city Having missed the train, they decided to walk. They do not like that exercise very much now. If a person wishes to disturb their feelings ask them where their We Walk but tons are?
