 The 17th annual excursion of the employees of G. Hall, Jr., & Go. to Watch Hill and Block Island, last Saturday, was perhaps the most en- joyable of the series thus far. The 100 tickets put on sale at this station proved to be insufficient for the num- Der that wished to go from here. The day was all that could be desired and the crowd was made up of the right sort, which included excursionists all the way from Stafford to Willimantic. The employees of G. Hall, IT,. & Co.,, together with their families, were presented with tickets at the station by MT. Hall. This courtesy by the company was none the less appreciated because of it's having been enjoyed on several such occasions before.
