 Death of Colonel Caldwell
 The death of Colonel Caldwell of New York City occurred Thursday morning at Pine Grove camp ground. He was 75 years of age and was re- tired army officer. For a number of years he and his wife have spent their summers ill their cottage in the grove, which they very appropriately named Barracks U. s. A" Both were very popular with the cottagers and the Colonel's death cast a shadow of gloom over the entire camping community. His wife alone survives. The remains were taken to Woodmont, N. Y. for in- terment. For some time he had been in poor health and during the very re- cent past he underwent three critical operations in New York hospital. He rallied from each, however, and when he arrived in Canaan a few days ago, remarked that he was in better health than for some time previous and made arrangements with hveryman A. P. Briggs for the daily use of horse. Cl. Caldwell had overestimated his strength. however, for he began to fail almost as soon as he reached his cottage.
