 Stratford, May 1O-Asa, L. Parke- ton, Past Sachem of Okenuck tribe of Red Men of this town who was appointed first Sannap, the highest appointtve state office of the Red Men at the meeting of the Great Council of the order held at Hart ford on Wednesday will have some words of wisdom for. the members of the local tribe at the meeting on Monday night. Great Sannap Parke- ton was appointed to the office by Great Sachem Henry P. Crawford of Greenwich who was elected on Wed nesday for the coming year. Parke- ton was a candidate at the meeting of the Great Council of the Red Men for the office of Great Junior Saga more being defeated on the third bal lot by Harry Phillips of Torrington. It Is expected that Parketon will be the choice of the convention for this Cffice next year as a large number of the delegates voted against him so that the upstate tribe could have a representation among the Great Chiefs and not because there was anything against him as he is one of the most popular men in Red Men circles in the state. While he did not receive the office of Great Junior Sagamore the office of Great Sannap Is a most important one and it is admitted that there is no one in the order who is better qualified to fill it than Asa Parketon and he has received many congratulation from the Red Men of the state over the appointment.
