Rev. s. Leslie Reid son-in-law of Mr..
and Mrs. Fred G. Brown of this place and

ing of the Hudson Presbytcry at Middle
town, n, Y.
In it's report of the installation services
the Rockland County Messenger said in
part
."After series of difficulties which
crossed the path of Rev. S. l.. Reid in the
realization of his goal to the local pastor
ate and which difficulties at one time
threatened q breach between Hudson
Presbytery and the Central Presbyterian
church at Haverstraw, the popular pastor
called unanimously by the local congre-
CATION was officially installed Monday
evening.
The church was filled with large and
enthusiastic congregation made up of
members of not only the Presbyterian
congregation but all creeds and denomina-
tons.
ION May G, last, after the church had
been WITHOUT pastor since Jan. 1; when
Rev. G. II. Bonsalls resignation became
effective, the congregation called Mr..
Reid to be their pastor. The choice was
unanimous. A few weeks later Mr.. Reid
accepted the call and has since been serv-
ing the church. The difficulty arose when
Mr.. Reid presented himself for examina-
ton at the September meeting of Pres
bytery. At this session he was refused
admission to that body because of his
theology, n matter of the conservative
against the liberal. When the news of
this refusal of Presbytery to grant him
admission reached town the local Presby.
terians were up in arms and threatened
revolt of Presbytery if Mr.. Reid were not
admitted. A strenuous campaign was in
stituted by the leaders of the church with
the result that second hearing was
granted at the special session held al
Haverstraw on Nov. H. At this session
Mr.. Reid was re-examined and favorably
accepted.
REV. Mr.. Reid began his ministry il
Haverstraw with a united church behint
him. He is exceedingly popular ant
nothing but successful passionate seems
before him. During the history of tho
church, the church has been served by
only three pastors, the venerated Rev. n
s. Freeman, who served for % years
Rev. g. ii. Bonsall, who served for >.
years, and now Rev. s. Leslie Reid"
Then follows a sketch of Rev. Mr.
Reid's accomplishments in his studen
years. The report closes by saying:
THE Insulation of Mr.. Reid closes
chapter in church history that means |
signal victory for the local church whicl
was determined to see the issue through
and cannot but tend to have liberaliza
tion influence upon the Presbytery."

Awarded $85 by Judge Stowe for Act OF
ROux in Not Allowing Him to Harvest
His Crops.

In findings of fact in the Townshend
case of Warren II. Dow against Noise
Roux Judge Frank ID. Il. Stowe of the
court finds that in the spring
of 1920 the plaintiff leased n piece of
land of the defendant which the defend
ant had in his possession, for the pur-
pose of raising crops, agreeing to deliver
to Roux 10 bushels of potatoes as rent.
In the fall, when Dow began to dig the
potatoes, Roux assaulted him and drove
him from the field and would not allow
him to gather his crops. The court
finds that the plaintiff was damaged TO
the amount of $50 for the loss of his
crops and judgment has been entered
for that amount. Attorney A. V. ID.
Piper is counsel for Dow. Attorney Il,
w. Gibson, counsel for Roux, has given
notice of an appeal to the supreme
court

claiming that Roux kicked him and that
as he put one hand behind him one fin-
ger was broken by the kick. The plant
III was awarded $25, and an appeal is

ENGINEERS VISIT BRIDGE.
Inspect Site for Highway Bridge Over
West River--Fed6raI and State Oni.
ciaIs Present

west ktVer-Feder1l, ana State Oni-
Gals Present.
Both the federal and state governments
have become interested in the proposition
to erect steel bridge over West river
to the extent that engineers representing
both governments looked over the situa-
ton Tuesday morning, together with sew
eral Brattleboro residents. most of them
being present in some official capacity. @.
Federal Engineer G. ii. Stillman Of
Troy, n. Y, who represents the national
government in federal highway work in
Vermont, and State Highway Commits :
sioner Thurman w. Dix Of Montpelier
came here through the efforts of Repre-
sentative Frank II. Barber. acting for the
selectmen, and after visiting the proposed
location and holding a conference in the
iselectmen's room they left on the 1l.40
train north. ftf .j

Barber those in the party were Select
men $. A. Richmond and w. T.. Stellman,
District Highway Commissioner X. II.
Coombs. Engineer James f. IIclyar, Ed
ward G. Crosby and representative OF
The Phoenix
The engineers inspected the old COW
cred bridge which is guyed by steei
cables to keep it from tipping over, and
then went to the north bank of West
river. west of the West River railroad
the desrability Of building a bridge across
to the Eaton place. now owned and occu-
pied by DIR. II. II. Lynch, with the south
ern approach leading from the present
| highway and crossing DIR. Lynch's prem
Uses n ledge near the railroad, on the
north side of the river, west of the high
way, is especially favorable for the north
approach
The engineers were impressed with the
feasibility of the location and thought it
would not cost much more than another
plan which was suggested. which was to
| build Il new bridge on the site of the
present one. building it high enough to
go over the West River railroad, while
the added advantages of the proposed new
location would more than offset the extra
cost.
/ No estimates were made of the cost of
the proposition. Engineer Stillman, with
out giving n definite expression of opin-
ion not having given the matter thorough
consideration, appeared to think that Il
|, two-span bridge with a pier in the river
would be preferable to a single span and
would avoid narrowing the river channel.
Mr.. Crosby, who had plans for u bridge
in that location made u number of years
ago, told of what was learned at that time
: as to the condition of the river bed, stat
ing that there were lodges on both banks,
! and the information which he gave was
of much value. .,.sgt. .,s
The site was viewed also from the
south side. after which a conference was
held in the Sclectmcn's room and the
whole scheme was gone over carefully.
The engineers will give the matter full
consideration, and if the project is adopted
as federal project the cost to the town
should not be prohibitive.
