The resignation of J. c. DeI&une as
Barre's street superintendent was ac.
cepted by the board of aldermen last
night, the resignation to take effect
on May 8. The board accepted tha
resignation with regret because Mr..

builder and efficient superintendent,
The salary offered him by the newly
| formed Nelson Lumber Co. was such
that it was considerably beyond the
figure which the city could afford to
pay. Hence the acceptance of the res
ignation. A successor to Mr.. DeBrunq
in charge of the street department was
not named last night.
Among other acts of the aldermen
was the adoption of the c,,rfew ordi
nance, the ordinance having been pre-.
