 Putnam, Dec 10.-Eli Durocher of =Woonsocket, a boxer known as Kid O. Neil. died on the way to tine. Day Kim ball hospital. Saturday afternoon where he was being taken following an auto mobile accident on the Providence pike east of what is known as ,Ndittlesey:s four corners.
 Durocher was riding on a truck own ed and driven by Joseph Gremour of Chepachet and they were on their way to Putnam. The rear end of the truck gave out and the machine could. not be started. Fred L'Hereux. who lives near Keach's pond, volunteered to tow the truck to Putnam When coming down hill the truck skidded and Ncrsshed through a fence. = '+s' -
 Following the accident Joseph Che manska of Putnam came along and took the injured man in his car and rushed | him to .thes hospital but he was dead be. l fore he reached there. Gremour was ! rendered unconscious but came to a6 ter while and only suffered from mi nor abrasions and bruises. N ~T-@--'; -..
 Officer Gibney was notified of the ac cident and was told thay there was an | other injured man. He went to thu scene of the accident but when he ar rived Gremour had recovered and wa ! apparently but little hurt. The officc made an investigation but was unab to, learn just how Durocher met :. h; death. A man who passed the truci just previous to the accident stated tha a man was riding on the running boar; of the truck | at that time. The drive told the officer that Durocher- wa thrown through the windshield ani landed in some nearby bushes. Jnvestl gation of the: spot pointed out did no show signs of a body having fallel there. If Durocher was on the running board he was doubtless crushed agains the fence.

DANIELSON AND PUTNAM NEWS
PUTNAM

Through their attorneys, Searls. Rus sell and Bradford, Arthur King o6 Hyde Park, Mass, and Mrs. Georgianna King Smith of Putnam, have appealed from the probate courts allowance of th sale ot tho King homestead on Grove street and from the allowance of the final account of Alphonsa S. King, eye- cutor of the will of Nelson King. All are children and heirs of the late Nel- son King. The appellants allege that the property was sold without proper advertising, without sufficiently trying to secure a purchaser and that a higher price might have been obtained. It i1 also alleged that soon after the sale was made the property was deeded to the executor. The appeal is returnaDle to the superior court.
 Funeral services for James B. TN- tenn, pioneer handle manufacturer ot this section, who died early Thursday morning at his residence on Grove street, was held from the home, Satur- day afternon. Burial was in the Grove street cemetery.
 If citizens of Putnam, both young and old, who enjoy ice skating, are tc have an opportunity for this sport something will have to be done dmmc. diateIy., The best available skating pond ts the so-called Perry's meadow This pond covers 3 large area, is 2 flowed meadow and not deep and Is ar ideal place to skate. .UnfortunateiH through the actions of hoodlums wht have gone to the pond in the past com mitting various kinds of nuisances, thu ice dealers who use the pond as a source l of supply have felt obliged to stop it! use as a public skating rink. Last yea the Parent Teachers association was in | strumentai in having the lot near thu high school flooded and this was used to considerable extent but this year th' society is not in a financial position tha warrants 1t in again undertaking tn project. The chamber of commerce ha become interested in the matter ant will cooperate with other organization to again make possible a public ice skating pond somewhere in or near tn 1 city.
