 Thomas Fitzpatrick, better known as "Steeple Tom,' is repairing the steeple on the Methodist church this week. the top of which was blown of some time ago. On Tuesday Tom with his helper, a young oolored lad, took down the top oornice. The steeple will probably be topped with a copper spife instead of a weather vane The old steeple with the weather vane was 135 feet hIgh. When finished it will probably be less than 130 feet high. This is the first time Tom has done any steeple work in his home town and he and his helper attracted considerable attention on Tuesday while they worked at the dizzy height as un- concerned as if they were on tho ground. Tom and his helper, who como from Willimantio, have won quite a bit of fame in their daring climbing in the southern states as woll as in the west and north.
