Mary Anderson Lauds Booth.

A portrait Of Edwin Booth, by many
considered Americas greatest tragedi-
an, was presented lately to the Me-
mortal Art gallery in the Shakespeare
memorial at StratfOrd-on-Avon by an
American friend of the drama and his
colleagues.
The most striking feature Of the
ceremony was the voice Of Nine. de
Navarro, once the idol of American
dramatic audiences as Mary Anderson,
says the New York Sun. Her personal
"reminiscences of Edwin Booth reached
their climax in her recitation of an
apOstrOphe in verse to the great actor.
A voice from out the past, indeed,
and its magical effect upon the audi
ence gathered at StratfOrd is ample
testimony TO the truth that the great
backgrounds in art and human life are
not blOtted out by the intense preOc-
cupatiOn in things of the present
which seem to fill the picture.

ORLANDO B. SUTTON KILLED
Well known St.GeOrges Citizen Crush
ed When He Fell Under Wheels
While on His Wav Home

Orlando B. Sutton, a lifelong and
prominent resident of st. Georges,
was instantly killed Friday night
about o'clock when he was run over
by State highway truck near Wran-
gle Hill. Sutton, who was employed
by the State Highway Department,
was returning home after the days
work, near State road and was riding
on the truck in company with four
other men, three of whom We're on the
front seat. 1t is said that Sutton
said something about moving back in
the rear part of the truck to make
more room on the front seat. He
then swung out over the side pre-
paratory to climbing up in back when
he slipped and fell to the road. The
rear wheel of the truck passed direct
ly over his head and neck, smashing
his head and practically tearing it
from his body. His companions stop
ped the truck, rushed to a nearby
farmhouse and summoned DIR. w. w.
Ellis of Delaware City, who arrived
on the scene twenty minutes after the
accident, but Sutton's death had been
instantaneous. The body was taken
to an Undertaking establishment in
New Castle Immediately after the ac-
cident and was taken to his late home
Saturday morning. Sutton is the
son of Postmaster and Mrs. Albert N.

KENT COUNTY LEVY COURT TO
BUILD NUMBER OF BRIDGES
SOME ORDERED REBUILT AND
OTHERS UNDER CONSTRUCTION
Request That Stag Be. Spread On
Kits Hammock Road Will be In
yestigated by County Engineer


Routine business was transacted by
the Kent County Levy Court at their
regular weekly meeting held in the
Court House last week at Dover. All
the members of the Court were in at
tendance. A number of bills were
presented to the Court and orders for
their payment were ordered drawn.
B. H. Moore, residing in the Second
District, appeared before the Court
and asked that some Stag be used in
repairing the bay road at several
places between Dover and Kits Ham
mock. Mr.. Moore explained the nee
essity of having this work done before
cold weather in order to keep the road
in a passable condition. After hear
ing Mr.. Moore's request, the Court
decided to postpone action on the
matter until they could receive a re-
port from the County Engineer and
have the matter further investigated.
The Court instructed the County En-
gineer T. Marvel GOoden to proceed
and rebuild Browns bridge which con-
meets the Sixth and Ninth Districts.
County Engineer Gooden explained to
the Court that a bill of S165 for
bridge work in the Sixth District was
for the repairing of six bridges in
that District. After the bill had been
itemized according to the number OF
bridges, the Court ordered the bill
paid. The construction of a new
bridge in Milford over the stream
that divides Kent and Sussex Coun-
ties, has been temporarily halted be-
cause the Levy Courts of the two
Counties have been unable to agree
on the matter. The Kent County
Court has invited the Sussex County
Commissioners to meet again at Mil
ford on Friday morning for another
conference on the matter. A COM
mittee, headed by George NJ. Jones.
from the State College for cOlored
students, located just north OF Dover
appeared before the Court with re-
quest that the road crossing Silver
Lake run above the College, be
Strengthened. The Court after hear
ing the delegation, decided to meet
on the scene next Tuesday Afternoon
for the purpose of inspecting the roaC
and the bridge in question.
