sAYBRooKs MEMORIAL CLOCK

Beautiful Gift by Daughter in. Memory
 of Former Prominent New Havener. At the annual business meeting of the
 First Congregational church, Saybrook,3 held recently, at the close of the regular
 business the pastor, Rev, Edward E.
 Bacon, announced that the trustees had received a letter from Nelson M. Bowes, of New York; saying that his mother, ' Mrs. Harriet w. Bowes, of Saybrook, wished to give the church a, belfry clock. The clock is to serve as a mem orial to her father, the late Richard N.
 DoWd. The offer was accepted by a
 unanimous vote of the church, and a
 committee consisting of the pastor and trustees was appointed to notify Mrs. Bowes of the action taken and to ex- press to her the appreciation of the church.
 The clock is to have three faces, each five and one-haf feet in diameter, and will be from the Howard factory, Bos-
 ton. It is said that the cost will be about $1, 200.
 The First Congregational church is one of the oldest societies in the state, having been founded in 1646. The first structure for worship was erected in 1648# on Middle Lane, at Saybrook Point, and was used until 1881, when a more comfortable building was erected near by. The third church building was built in the center of the village in 172e and the present one was dedicated January Il, 1s4o.
 l Richard N. Dowd, in whose memory this beautiful gift is bestowed, was a widely known and prominent man in this city years ago. He is well remem- IIbered by many New Haven people, es- lpeoially business men, having been con- inected with the New York, New Haven

Henry D. Terrell of Cheshire was the temporary receiver appointed last week by Judge Gager.
 Judge Gager suggested that the par ties get together to see if they could not agree on receiver who should hold on until the case came to full hearing. Thereupon counsel decided to consult together and court took a re- cess.
 The negotiations lasted for an hour and half and resulted in an agree ment under which the minority stock holders are to buy the stock of Frank o. Ives. who controls the majority of the stock. He Is to be paid three-quar- ters of the par value of the stock.
 Ives holds 261 shares and the others hold thirty-nine shares. The par value of the stock is s25.
 The agreement was submitted to the court and was approved. It provides that the money shall be paid over some time this week.
 The minority stockholders who were the plaintiffs to the suit, were Jacob D. Walter, James R. Lanyon, Frederick A. Ives, Horace L. Hine of Cheshire and Abner Hendee of New Haven.

sHALL TRUSTEE PAY ALL?

The question as to whether Seymour S. Thompson, q beneficiary under the will of the late Charles E. Thompson, shall receive at the present time ali of his bequest,. was before Judge Cleave- land in the probate court yesterday. By the will Seymour s. Thompson was bequeathed $7,OOo in trust, and was to be paid $500 8 year until the trust fund was exhausted. w. J. Atwater was named as trustee, and he recently en- tered Into contract with Seymour s. Thompson whereby it was agreed that the whole of the trust fund should be paid to the latter at once.
 Trustee Atwater presented the matter to the probate court for approval and his counsel, Attorney Ely, said the court would be justified in approving the action taken by the trustee as the supreme court had recently decided a similar case in approval of the action of the trustee.
 Judge Cleaveland took the matter lir1- der advisement.
