 "Who do you suppose this is?" asked Col. Hall, as the big red motor came to a halt as he was driving slow ly over the Hill, indicating a stoutly- built, sharp eyed man by his side. This is John Warren. He came up from the farm in Mansfield this morn ing and am showing him about Will lington. We met Herbert Hanover, who is here on a visit, at the Glass Factory, and Herbert remembered him when he used to draw wood to the glass works and recalled when he, as a small boy, had jumped upon the wagon for a ride, after the wood was unloaded Warren was interested ip all he saw and interesting in his talk. He had, he said a "vision" that he might be released, and that was how he had been persistent in his efforts to secure a pardon, and spoke appreciatively~ of the kindness of Col. Hall, his sharp eyes as he looked up at him expressing his ad- and of States Attorney Charles Phelps of Rockville, Miss Mary Hall of Hartford and others who had kindly assisted him. He said they had finished having at his broth CTS in Mansfield, and he thought, he would take day off; spoke of his loved garden and greenhouses and of the great kindness of Warden Garven,; The other day some one said to us When you say any one is good just what do, you mean ?". And as supplementary reply I give the illustration of man with innu- irons of importance in the fire finding time for kindness to the unfortunate.
