BENTON DENIED

A decision has been rendered by

missing the petition of +. l.. Black

public convenience and necessity re
of a station for freight and passen-
gers, OF for passengers alone, at or
near Parker's Crossing in Benton.
| The commissioners in their decision
I covering the matter say:
4 For a number of years the Maine
Central maintained a freight and
passenger station at West Benton,
/ the same being on what was then the
main line between Waterville and
Bangor. This line crossed the Ken
nebec river above Watervile and
there Joined the line leading from
! Skowhegan through Fairfield to Wat

greater convenience and economy in
operation, the railroad company
planned and recently built very
costly bridge above West Benton
and via this bridge crossed the river
into fairfield, Strengthened its line,
made extensive changes and i'm
proVements at and near Fairfield, and
abandoned that portion of its former
line from a certain point in Benton

suit in Inconvenience so that these
petitioners representing themselves

Wants Civil War Bounty

Ruful l.. Dill of Auburn was given
opportunity to address the Governor
and Council and asked that the State
make up to him the sum of 5000. he
ing the amount Of bounty paid by the
town of Auburn to Civil War mon
during that period. but of which he
had never heard until few years
ago.
Mr.. Dill said that he served in the
navy and now received a pension
and thought that it would be only
fair that the State should see that
he was as well provided for as those
who were at home and knew about
the bounty, whereas he was at sea.
Governor Milliken went later with
the veteran to the adjutant generals
department and investigated the
case. but no assurances couid he
given Mr. Dill that anything could be
done for him.
