FOR WAR IN '6l HERE

along the Plainville road. As a young man he attended Amherst college, at Amherst, Mass.> graduating from that institution in 1861. The outbreak of the Civil war prevented him entering the ministry and he enlisted in the Union army shortly after his ordina- tion at the Union Theological Semin- cry of New York.
 He never returned to New Britain to live after this time. At the close of the war he went west and for awhile was pastor of a Congregational church in Kansas City. Later he filled charges in various parts of the west until his retirement some years ago. For time he made his home with his son Alfred B. Andrews, of Chicago. Recently he has been living with his daughter. Mrs R. w. Gibbs. of Columbia, S. c. Mrs. Gibbs accompanied her father north on his trip and the couple were met in New Britain by the son and brother who came in from Chicago to join them. They are stopping at the Hotel Beloin.
 Everything seems so new and fresh and enterprising and progressive that it is remarkable how the town has grown into large city, said Rev. MT. Andrews this morning. MT. An drews appears to be in a remarkable state of health and an observer would not guess his age within 20 years of 90.
 The visiting clergyman took troll ley ride from New Britain to Hartford but did not feel overly pleased with it. They make to many stops,'' he said He and his children are thinking of making a trolley tour of New England this summer before returning to their homes.
 How did you travel between New Britain and Hartford in your time % he was asked. The elderly minister stroked his beard in a reminiscent manner and his eyes twinkled as he answered, 70 we just hitched up the old farm horse, took along a peck of oats to feed him on the way, and started out for a days journey" There wasn't much travel in those jays,'' he added. He was very much surprised to learn the present popu- 1ation of New Britain. When I left here they had less than 5000 people, '' he said.
 Rev. MT. Andrews preached his first sermon in the New Britain church where his father and later his brother were deacons, just before he left to join the army.
