PERIOD OF NORWICH
WITHIN HIS RECOLLECTION.
Excellent Address by Judge Prentice,
the Concluding One of the Historical
Papers-Tributes to Many Prominent
Men.

-
Judge Prentice made the concluding
historical address, which was heard
with deep interest and received merit
ed applause. He said
Mr.. President Ladies and Gentlemen:
1t is my allotted task to take up the
threads of the story of this ancient
town at the point where the bicenten-
NAL celebration in 1859 dropped them.
The half century which has passed
since that time lies within the memory
of not few who are before me. Its
most significant events are familiar to
most of you. 1t would, therefore, in
terest you little, and profit you less, II
I should attempt at this time TO COM
pile record of them. l will leave that
task to the local historian of the future
who shall undertake to speak of the
things of the past to a generation
whose knowledge of them is drawn
from a more distant retrospect. But
history (and l must not forget that the
part assigned me here is an historical
one) concerns itself with something
more than the bare record Of events.
These are but the result of the play
and interplay of forces. human and
superhuman. Even those events which
are reasonably familiar assume an in
terest when the human factors in them
are brought under review, and 1.-THE
parts played by the chief actors in
them and the personalities OK those
actors are recalled.
1t chances that the period concerning
which / am asked to speak, save only
a few of its earliest years, is within
the range of my personal recollection.
True, some Of that recollection is made

up of the impressions of boyhood and
youth. True, much of it is not drawn
from a direct participation in what has
TRANSFERRED, or from an intimate per-
sonal contact with the more prominent
figures concerned. But / am obliged
to confess that l am old enough to be
able to bring under review from MEM
DRY the events of a large portion of the
period in question, and to have re-
ceived very distinct impressions of and
concerning most of the men who have
been the chief actors upon this LEGAL
stage during that time. l shall. there
fore, take the liberty of giving express
sion to some of these Impressions and
of bringing into special prominence the
personal side of the last half centurys
history here.
Stirring Times.
The beginning of our period taxes
us back to times which stirred mems
souls. The great national struggle
over human slavery was near its
height; the people of the country were
aligning themselves for the momentous
political conflict which the next year
was to witness; and events were fast
rushing on to the dread climax of war.
1t is difficult, / imagine, for those of
us who have lived in less strenuous
times to faithfully picture to ourselves
the conditions which were then exist
ing. The conscience of the north had
been profoundly moved by the specta-
Gle of human bondage. and the efforts
which were being made to extend the
sphere of the influence of slavery. The
issue which had been Joined was in its
sight less a political than a moral one,
and men became inspired with that ar
dor and zeal and determination which
moral issue alone can arouse. This
was peculiarly true of those of the old
New England stock who had been bred
and nurtured under the Influences of
a Puritanism which had not passed
away but still fingered amid the homes
of the fathers to be deeply stirred by
it's sense of wrong, and to be stirred
to action which knew no ceasing. Here
in this town and in this eastern Con-
necticut the blood of the Puritan flowed
in scarcely adulterated streams The
influences which he created were still
potently present in this typical. New

seems to have been the great man. He
was mayor for II years. until 1881.
You viii recall that the charter Of

moved by the general assembly. Mr..
Goddard must have been a sound and
thoughtful lawyer. His written opin-
ions, as q judge, are commendable.
Senator Foster selected his ONCE to
read law in. He was an enterprising
manufacturer. He was one of Connec-
ticuts delegates to the Hartford con-
ventfon and member of congress.
Yet l confess it is hard to find much
color in his personality. That is not
true of Henry Strong, nor of Senator
Huntington, nor is it true of other men
prominent in later years, like William
c. Gilman and WilGam p. Greene.
Henry Strong and Jabez w. Hunting
ton were born in the same year, 1888,
one the some of beloved clergyman
of the town. the other the son of Zach
ariah Huntington and grandson of
General Ja.bez Huntington. They were
intimate friends in boyhoed, class
mates together in college. and associ-
ated as lawyers. It is said that Hen
ry Strong could have had any of the
political honors which were showered
upon his friend. but he, preferred those
of a professional life. and they came
to him aburdantly. His face looks
down from the portrait in the court

ALUMNI
 BANQUET And Reception Friday EVeR- ing Al the Normal ATTENDANCE NOT LARGE Too Many Attractions in Phoenix Many of. the Teachers Also Left for Home After Attending Institute
ATTENDANCE NOT LARGE

The Alumni banquet and reception at the Normal Friday evening was a very pleasant affair. though the at tendance was a little disappointing to those who were taking an active in terest in the function. About seven ty-fiVe took part in the festivities and this number would no doubt have been greater but for the at fractions in Phoenix that evening It was anticipated that many of the teachers who were in attendance at the institute would be present. but d majority of them left that evening for their homes or remained in Phoe- nix. It was rather difficult for many of them to attend, as it meant cold drive back to Phoenix at the close. Those. however. who were there thor oughly enjoyed the occasion.
 During the early part of the even- ing a business session of the Alumni association was held in the assembly room. At this Supt II. C. Robertson of Mesa was reelected president, F. II. Alexander secretary. and Mrs. A. M Harmer treasurer. The executive committee appointed consists of John Dykes. Mary Leavell and Josie Critch- ley.

AN OPIUM CASE
 IN LOCAL COURT
THE PROPRIETOR AND TWO MEN
 ARRESTED.
All Pleaded Not Guilty-Trials Set
 For Tomorrow.

The greater part of the time of the local justice of the peace yesterday afternoon was spent in the cOnsidera- tion of an opium smoking case Tom Wing. a Chinaman who is presumed to conduct wash house near the woodward. was placed under arrest by Marshal Brown, together with two John Does. whose names for the sake of the family of one at this time are withheld
 MT. Brown has had his eye on the Chinaman for some little time.. and also on the two men He has seen them going there frequently, moresO than he judged could be well occa- stoned by the laundry business. The Chinaman claimed that he was in ill health and on that account his license was made lighter. It would seem, however. that this favor was not appreciated by Wing.
 The three were in court most of the afternoon yesterday. for it took a good deal of time to get anything through Wings head by means of an interpreter. Tom Ping acted in that capacity. The Chinaman admitted that both men had smoked opium in his place. and said that one had been paying him s2 per month for that privilege. The other had not been so liberal.
 When found in the place yesterday by the marshal, the pipe was on hand, though at that exact moment neither man was engaged in using IL. The two John Does were charged with frequenting a place where opium is smoked. for that purpose. Both pleaded not guilty. and their trial was set for Monday afternoon. Wing was charged with maintaining q re- sort where opium is smoked He, too. pleaded not guilty. and Tom Ping went good for him to the extent Of $50. He will have d trial Monday morning.
