failing fountain of supplies for a des-
titute army and sorely tried comman-
der in chief, and Faith, his wife-like-
wise a fountain pouring forth brave
deeds of patriotism and benevolence,
safely trusted" and whose children
arise and call her blessed, these
names stir all that is best in us into
life as living water revives a faint
ing spirit.
like that name-Faith; it spells
loyalty and truth, a sure rock of de-
Tense, an unfailing wellspring of sus-
tanning forces upon which one may re-
ly forever. Hence, it seems peculiar
ly fitting that a fountain, ,the symbol
of sure refreshment, of purity and
truth, should be the form of memorial
chosen, though unconsciously, by Faith
Trumbull chapter in recognition of a
deed. of generosity and benevolence.
She who was fountain of charitable
and loving deeds, who sought out and
delighted in opportunities of doing
good" has endowed Faith Trumbull
chapter with her spirit as well as her
name, and this fountain will forever
stand a witness to the chapters gene
public spirited gift. Faith Trumbull
chapter has brought honor to the Con-
necticut Daughters Of the American
Revolution in this, the latest of her
many deeds of patriotism, and Nor
witch is fortunate. indeed, in being able
to claim her for her own.

ters of the American Revolution in

Two clear-cut ideas have for many
weeks been inseparably connected In
my mind with Norwich: First, your
many presidents; and, secondly, and
more intimately personal to myself, the
Man in the Moon. 1t is a far cry
across the state from Litchfield to
Norwich, and ever since your valued
invitation was received, have been
asking my way to Norwich. Added to
the difficulties of getting out of in
accessible Litchfield were the difficul-
ties Of finding a way into Norwich.
Unlike the man in the moon did not
begin any too soon to ask the way
to Norridge." The mazes of the Con-
solidated time table, supposed to be
for the information OF the travelling
public, were useless-a hopeless tan

ing the Daughters Of eastern Connec-

triumph. Though farthest off. they
are as near to me in interest and
comradeship as those ON my own door

with glowing warmth beyond the con-
fines of Norwich to all Connecticut
Daughters living, as I might say, east
of the sun and west Of the moon, whom
it is days journey, to reach.
1t only remains to offer my heart
felt congratulations to beautiful Nor
witch upon this event so soon to be-
come one of the brightest pages in her
already notable history, and to say to
Faith Trumbull chapter, Ye have
fought the good fight Of faith-faith
in the principles of that society which
you are honoring in your patriotic
action of today; faith in the princi-
pies. of human generosity and unself-
ishness which you are memorializine
today; and faith in all those qualities
that made Faith Trumbull woman
to be loved. a patriot to be honored
and an example to be followed; and
thus, in your high endeavers, does
Faith Trumbull live again in these her

Presentation Of Fountain.
Mrs. Ellen NJ R. Bishop made the
presentation of the fountain to the
city through Mayor Costello Lippitt
Addressing the mayor. Mrs. Bishop
said:
Honorable Costello Lippitt, Mayor OF
the City of Norwich, and Friends:
Representing the members of Faith
Trumbull chapter, Daughters of the
American Revolution, 1t is my privilege
in their name to present to the city of
Norwich, through you, its representa-
tive, this memorial fountain.
The national society of the d. A. r.
was organized eighteen years ago for
patriotic, historical and educational
purposes. Inspired by the high ideals
Faith Trumbull chapter has continued
the work which was inaugurated in
Norwich by its former citizens who
erected monuments to the memory of
Capt. John Mason, Uncas, Miantonomo,
and to the donors OF Chelsea Parade
Joseph Perkins, Thomas flaming and
Joshua Lathrop.
: We have, with the Invaluable aid OF
the late George s. Porter, been able to
identify and mark the last resting place
of the little band of French soldiers
who came to this country as part of
the army of General Lafayette and
who were buried in unmarked and al
most forgotten graves, at Norwich
Town.
We have placed upon enduring
bronze the names of the Revolutionary
soldiers whose dust lies in the Old
Burying Ground We have also marked
in granite some Of the historic Revo-
l.lutionary houses, and now we have put
in permanent form our tribute to the
memory of two men whose deed of gem
erosity in the year 1911 had at least
few duplicates. 1t is comparatively
easy to follow where others lead, but
Hezekiah Perkins and Jabez Hunting
ton were among those who Jed that
others might follow.
Though but the brief space of one
hundred years has elapsed since they
gave this land to Norwich. we find It
difficult to gather many facts about
their daily lives.
They lived as respected citizens In
the two houses at our left, now oc-
cupied by Mrs. Charles Colt and Mrs
H. H. Osgood, and their descendants
bear testimony that they were Chris
tan men, and the records show that
they were men of business ability

erly granite, in commemorati6n Of the
gift Of the Little Plain to the citv Of
Norwich by Capt Hezekiah Perkins
and Hon. Jabez Huntington, In 1911.
There was pleasing order OF exer-

were enjoyed by fully 2,0O0 people. On
an elevated platform we're past state
regents, those who took part in the
exercises. and Jonathan Trumbull and
Gen. William s. Aiken. Directly in
front were chairs for the members Of

Daughters. and chairs were reserved
for Governor Weeks and his staff.
The regular exercises were COM

with invocation by Rev. Leweilyn

1t is my happy privilege today to
bring greetings from the Connecticut
Daughters of the American Revolu-
tion, to Faith Trumbull chapter and to
ancient Norwich on this impressive
occasion. To reach the distinction of
a 250th anniversary has not yet been
the good fortune OF many of our towns.
though we trust that it is in store for
all; even as many a happy couple
looks forward to some golden wedding
as the elimination of long life Of
good deeds.
Surely, Norwich, nesting by her
beautiful river today, is the land of
hearts desire of many a son and
daughter who are proud to return to
the old home Of inspiring memories
and to do homage to distinguished
past.
To Faith TrumbuI chapter the
greetings and congratulations of their
sister chapters throughout Connecticut
are pre- eminently due. Connecticut is
proud of Faith Trumbull chapter. and
proud of the noble name she bears. It
is name to thrill ones soul, fraught
with Connecticut's nohlest memories.
