A recent issue of the Middletown
tice of Ansel A., only son of Mrs Adella
I Wadsworth Packard of this city:
4 ga feat that has heretofore been &C.
complished only by the aid of an out
i, of town company has been achiev-
ed during the last week by Ansel A.
Packard, superintendent of the Middle
= town branch of the Connecticut Light
d and Power company, and the company's
. repair and construction men, who were
y under his direction. They have put a
: new high power cable across the Connec
ticut river Just south of the Middetown-
Portland highway bridge, and they have
done the job unassisted.
II Heretofore when cable has been plac-
o ed across the Connecticut river the Scott
n Wrecking company of New London has
been called to do the job with their ap-
- paratus, built for the most part especial
q ! Iy for such work. This time, however,
r Mr. Packard and his men have put the
Il cable across unassSted and can feel JUS
tifiable pride in their job. There is more
y work and engineering to the stretching of
e one of these high power cables across the
It river than would appear to the average
y person, and the local force, who have
done the work under Mr. Packard's d.
e rectioD, have had no easy Job. Part of
!, the work has beer. done when. suspended
over the river by rope and tackle sup
ports attached to the highway bridge"
