Henry Bennett a half-witted man en- rloyed by William E. Hiscn-. hal wr't- ten threatening letters. which caused Postmaster Finn to have him taken in custody. He was brought to Jewett City police quarters. but denied commit ting the deed at first. When Officer Do- Ian took him in hand, however, he con- fessed the whole affair. He said he had nothing against any of the family, but on the officer insisting that he must tell why he set the fire, he said he had written letters and put them in the mailbox, and received no answers and it was because the Brewsters had re- moved the letters! This letter writing of threatening, vile nature has been a mania, and he has already served six | months time for 1t, the postal authori- ties being responsible for his arrest. He said he came up to the mail box and sa straw sticking through the shed, and 1 thought he would set it ~aflre. One match failed to start a blaze, SD he tried the | second. When the fire began to burn l ne was sorry ana ITleQ to put IL out put l it was too late He seemingly was quite indifferent to the enormity of the crime. MT. and Mrs Brewster were alone, and ii.! not know there vas ;.-c. untiI ask ed by a neighbor where it was. Mrs. Brewster failed to get any response from the telephone office, as there must
 be some trouble on the line, could not find her husband and started for Mrs
 Frink's. The fright and haste brought ta, ON 0da nf 11a

 Brewster was very appreciative- of tlIeil

 The fire started about o'clock an;

 street was alive with speeding machine . flied with willing helpers. TherH migh
