HOUR IS NEAR AT HAND" SAYS
 JOHN F. CROSBY
Day of Justice for Ireland Dawning, Speaker Tells
 St. Patrick Knights.

The Knights of St. Patrick, with several score of women friends and
 relatives as guests, gathering last eve
 ming at The Stratfield, and celebrated with banquet the glories of Ireland
 of old and honored particularly the isles patron saint Patrick
 Attorney John F. Crosby of Boston,
 was the principal speaker He re-:
 viewed some of the Emerald Isles
 history and predicted the day of jus
 tice for it's inha bitants is not far
 away.
 He said in part: "In 432 A. D
 while the king was on his throne in
 Tiara's hall surrounded by druids and
 minstrels, a shadow fell across the
 floor, and there entered holding aloft
 the cross of Christ the Roman bishop,
 Patrick. All realized the power of
 Christianity and pleged allegiance to
 it; and the religion spread abroad in
 the land. Ireland became the nurs. cry of the saints and scholars. Pros perity looked upon the land but never came, but instead long trail of deso-
 lation. War followed war until Cromwell turned Ireland into one
 great prison, massacring the people SlIiA IuTOW1Ilg lItSu UdpleS IO LHS bayonets of his soldiers. But the spirit of the people could not be crushed. Ireland never lacked a leader. Emmet gave up his life to prove Ireland's constancy to it's cause. Irish inspiration lived on, be- queathed from Emmet to O'Connell, Barnel1, John Redmond and John Dillon, until now Ireland Is in it's first
 flush of triumph, and is fired with the knowledge that. the hour is near when freedom will be given to all the land"
 M. J. Flanagan was toastmaster. His pleasing witticisnls were ideal usurpers of the tween course inter- vals. Dr. R. F. Moore, pastor of Sa- cred Heart church, said grace. Phillip Troup, postmaster of New Haven, spoke on "The Day We Cele- brate' in an Interesting manner, May or Wilson made few remarks. Sew
 eral vocal selections were enjoyed.

PATTERSON CAR SPEEDING, SAYS
 CLINTON CHASE
Tells Coroner Automobile Rounded Curve at Exces-
 " sive Rate of Speed.

If James T.Patterson gains sufficient strength to stand the ordeal, Coroner John J. Phelan will visit the hospital to get his testimony on the automobile accident which caused the death of Arthur V. Phillips. The coroner has collected considerable information from the witnesses heard so far in the investigation, but he thinks Patterson Is the only one who can add the miss ing details
 This morning Clinton G. Chase testi- fled that the machine was going at ieaAt 40 miles an hour and possibly 50 or 60 as it rounded the curve at North and Brooklawn avenues last Sunday morning. Chase said he and his wife were returning from a party when they heard the crash of the &C., cident. They rushed to the scene and Chase helped get the people out of the car. Chase lives at 2S Tom Thumb street.
 William H. Keane of 1507 Howard avenue was another witness today. He said he didn't arrive until the acci- dent had happened. The testimo mony heard yesterday afternoon and today has produced variety of estimates regarding the speed of the ear. The lowest has been a5 miles an hour and the highest 60. Some of the witnesses said they didn't think the speed reckless considering the time and the deserted condition of the streets.
 It was stated today at the Bridge port hospital that the death of Mrs. Patterson is momentarily expected, 1t being impossible for her to recover. Patterson is reported as showing no improvement, although 1t is thought he will get better. It will be weeks before Coroner Rhelan can obtain a statement from him.
 The funeral of Arthur V. Phillips was held this afternoon from the resi- |ider1ce of Adam Mackie at 503 Central avenue, Westville, New Haven coun. ty. The services were private. Rev.
 Roy M Houghton, pastor of the Church of the Redeemer, conducted the services and interment was in Evergreen cemetery.
