 l An inv yestlgation by the ,seIectmen of | the town of Stonington is heing made eoi i the bar placed at one of the oldest pent- l ways in Stonington which was establish
 ed before 1918 and has been maintained
 by the town. The pentway Wednesday
 was practically closed by someone by 1 placing a bar across the opening which
 leads from the state highway dErectly to the Ledward's Island property at the extreme end of the course. This pentway
 cannot be ciosed and the seIectnen are investigating the matter. Some time ago the land in this section of the town was l sod and it is presumed that the man who purchased a lot here close to the pentway i thought that he could close up the read
 leading off th,e main highway. This pent- way calls for two rods for the road end | cannot be closed. It is the oldest pent-
 way in St0nngton and the town has paid l out money for its upkeep.
