A committee consisting of Sheriff
John Mcdonald, J. a. Hynes and j.
Ryan appointed by the general COM
mittee from the united councils of the
knights of Columbus or Waterbury,

Monday afternoon and paid over to
George Carlson of 314 East Mann
street 5000 of the capital prize which
was won by ticket No 2S,46S, which
Mr. Carlson held and which he claim
ed to have purchased of Samuel Tyler,
employed at the Parker Co factory,
says the Meriden Record. But there
was another claimant in the person Of
Mrs John Oliver of AZ Court street,
for the $1,000 When the coupon with
the number was taken from the wheel
on the night of the dra. ting those nav
ing charge announced she winner as
Mrs Oliver of Meriden. but when the
lady went to get her ticket she could
not find it and asked the BRASS City
knights not to pay the money until
she could find her ticket which she
had failed to do up to Monday after
noon. AS Carlson had his ticket, with
the number on, the committee paid
him the above sum.
After the committee came to Meri-
den they went to the Meriden house
where they met Carlson and sent for
Mrs Oliver to meet them. but as she
failed to appear at 4:30 o'clock the
committee gave Carlson 5000. holding
800 of the prize to fight any legal
steps that Mr Oliver might take in
the future and, while Mr. Carlson and
Mr. Tyler. who was with him. We're
not fully satisfied with the settlement.
Mr. Carlson took the money and turned
over his ticket to the committee as his
receipt for the money. He will walt
