 At the adjourned town meeting inI the town hall Saturday, the report of the selectmen was given as ito lighting the streets with electricity. After al hearing as to the expense a vote was taken the vote standing 125 to 42 in favor of lighting, It is proposed to place fifty lights. starting at w. Al Lanyon's, South Main street, there to- Judge Bronson's on Maple avenue,I thence to Mrs. Wallace's place, West Cheshire, one light in front of St Bridget's church, Highland avenue; one in front of Grange hall, East Main street, and some lights below w. A. Lanyon's to Bradley's corner. South! Main street; also five on the Cheshire street road.
