Mrs. Mary Anderson, widow of
Julius O. Anderson, sustained an ap-
opleptic shock at the home of Samuel
Rockwell, Sunday. She was taken
to the home of her son, Charles s.
Anderson, and at the latest accounts
had not recovered consciousness.
Fears are entertained that she will
not recover.
According to J. Allen Mix, who
has kept accurate count, yesterday
completed 81 days of consecutive good
sleighing. Previously there were a
few days of passable sleighing, but
these are not included. If some of the
older residents have anything to beat
this now is the time to produce their
records, and not wait three or four
years and then spring something when
we have forgotten about the winter of
1904
There is some local interest in the
effort of Lawyer P. J. Danahey to Sc
cure Reinstatement at the bar. The

of Willimantic, Charles E. Searles of
Putnam and A. G. Bills of Danielson,
who acted as grievance committee for
the Windham county bar, recommend
ed that Danahey be reinstated, unless
there should be found something in a
complaint made by Lawyer Meloney
of Willimantic relative to case in
which DaDahey offered testimony.
Judge Shumway reserved his decision.
