DIED AT NORWICH.
Horace A. Dixon, 72, Had Serious FaIi
 Several Years Ago.

Horace Arnold Dixon died at Nor wich hospital just after g o'clock Fri day morning. Thursday he was stricken with an attack of brain fever and from the first there was little hope for his recovery. MT. Dixon had been at the institution since last August His trouble has been traced back tc the time when he fell, several years ago, while at work about the Key stone store, and cut his head severely at the base of the skull, causing blood clot to form.
 MT. Dixon was born at Providence Oct. IT, 1889. During the years of his early manhood he learned the trade of a machinist in Norwich and until 1895, when he became associated with his son in the mercantile business in Danielson, he followed that occupa- ton.
 About 45 years ago he came to Dan ielson after having been employed for a time at the mills in Wauregan His first engagement here was with the Quinebaug company in the machine department, and from that mill he went to what is now known as the Dan1elson Cotton company's mill, re maining for IT years as master me chanfc. Later he returned to the ena- ploy of the Quinebaug company, Ieav- ing only to go into business with his son.
 MT. Dixon was a veteran of the Civil war, having enlisted in Conpa- A Fifth Connecticut Volunteers He saw two years and ten months of active service, during which he was with General Sherman on his historic march to the sea, and this period of MT. Dix on's army service always held the greatest fascination for him.
 At Moosup on Nov. 27. 1867. MT. Dixon married Miss Harriett E. Lil- lie. daughter of MT. and Mrs John Lfllie, who survives him, with one son, Walter L. Dixon. head of the Keystone store of Danielson. The marriage cere- mony was performed by Rev. J. P. Brown, now of New London. the oldest Baptist clergyman in Connecticut
 MT. Dixon was at one time preSi- dent of the Keystone Department Store company and until his illness prevent ed further attention to active duties he was associated with the business, giv- ing it careful and painstaking atten- tion.
 As a resident of this place for 45 years. MT. Dixon formed many stead fast friendships He was a quiet val uable citizen, devoted to his home and the things in life that are for the best. He was an attendant at the Baptist church.
 Besides his wife and son. MT. Dixon is survived by a brother, Charles E. Dixon, and a sister. Sarah Jane Dixon, both Of Danie1son.

 Fine Sewers at Moderate Cost.
 No city in Connecticut has been able to build such well constructed sewers at such a small cost as has heen done in Putnam during the past two years. The construction figures prove this statement. The low cost but for first class work, has been made possible by the systematic way in which the ad- ministrative officers of the city, with their engineers, took up teh work.
