 At the meeting of the directors of the Stafford Springs Cemetery assooi- Ation, held at the library building last Friday evening to take action on she claim of Frank Keefe for damage to his wood lot of young growth caused by fire starting on the grounds of the association last spring, Mr Keefe was present. About nineteen acres of Mr. Keefe's land was burned over. Mir. Keefe had asked Burt T. Eaton and w. R Preble to look the property over and estimate the dam age. They did so and placed the loss at $175. Mr. Keefe considered their estimate much too low and brought in a bill for $35O. After talking the matter over at She meeting it was finally agreed to leave the appraisal of the loss to two persons, one to be appointed by F. F. Patten, president of the association. and the other by Mr. Keefe. In case the two appraisers fail to argee, they are to appoint a third person to act with them.
