PoMFRET LOSES
Milton Eleven Beats Connecticut Ri
 walls by ELS Score

Pomfret School was defeated last Saturday at Milton. Mass. by Milton Academy, one of it's two great rivals by a twenty-one to five score. Pom fret's points were scored by field goal and a safety. Milton made three touehdowns and the extra points.
 The Pomfret season could hardly be termed success. The eleven lost both of it's big games, those with Taft and with Milton. In addition two of the intermediate games, those with Storrs freshmen and North High of Worcester were triumphs for the opposition.
 Pomfret had smooth working eleven, but one which lacked scoring power. It had no man who could be depended upon for gain of n few yards when required. as was the case with most of the other elevens de veloped there. Gundry, Johnson. C, and Thayer, F., the last mentioned the captain of the team, were the stars for the year.

Before one of the largest crowds ever Co witness an early season game, the newly organized basket ball team of the local Headquarters Co.,, 43rd Div. Inf. opened it's home season last Monday night in the Armory on Liy- cry street with the Service Battery of Danielson, defeating them 83-l5.
 Captain White and his team evi. dently took the spectators and op- posing players by surprise. The Headquarters Go. team started to play rings around the previously well-or- ganized Service Battery, rolling. up a margin of sixteen counters before their opponents hardly realized the game had started.
 The defense of the home team was superb during the first half. allowing their adversaries Co accumulate only seven points Due to the long and accurate passing of White the ball was continually kept out of enemy territory. The stars of the game were Bennett and Light for Putnam, Captain Gale and Eaton for Daniel son.

Legend Tells About SevenFoot Chief of Hecuean Strength
 Wall He Built Still In Exsenee.-Indian Relics Found.

In the far northwestern corner of the town of Woodstock, less than half a mile from Worcester county. Mass. on the north, and the town of Union. Holland county, on the west. is located a small pond. Hatchet Pond by name. IT th1 saG.ss Si winch the iast indians in the town of Woodstock danced their war dances. and now lie buried.
 The Indian cemetery at Ratchet Pond is on land owned by the town of Woodstock. but so difficult of access that few residents of the town have ever visited 1t. At the annual town meeting early this month several resi- dents brought up the matter of mak- ing the site of the old settlement and cemetery more accessible to the public, but this matter was tabled. and since no authority was given them. the citi- gems interested in the project cannot do the work at the expense of the town or at their own expense. It was proposed that a path from the road to the cemetery be laid out.
 Indians Driven Back
 In the eighteenth century when the white settlers began to effect some kind of an organization and thorough settlement of the territory in the towns roundabout. the Indian problem was of course one of importance and seri- ousness in their development. When the settlers gained such a majority ia numbers over the native inhabitants that they held pretty much the sway, and were relatively free from Indian molestations. the red men from all over the township were grouped to- gethcr on a farm in the Hatchet Pond region.
 After generation or two there the tribe. believed to have been a branch of the Wapraquassets. dwindied to small numbers. and about i2O years ago the last member passed to the hap py hunting grounds, and was buried in the cemetery by white settlers.

having heard in his childhood days de- scriptions of this mighty Indian chief from old men who had seen him. There is well near where the tribal camp was located which Jeremy Is supposed to have built w''h h.z zw-n k@..s.s. S,.sas of the stones in this are of such weight that several men ef ordinary strength working together can hardly lift them.
 When he died he was buried apart from the other braves and squaws. His final resting place was on an old farm a short distance from the tribe $ settlement An extraordinarily large grave was required. After his body bad been lowered into it amid the la mentations of his subjects the earth was replaced and then large boulder rolled on top of the grave tc prevent anyone digging up the body. About 1900. however. the grave was uncover ed in the hope that something of value would be unearthed. Nothing was found, however.
 What One Sees
 One visiting the location of the old village sees only part of an old stone chimney. the last relic Of the settle f tance from the village location is the cemetery. Fifty years or so ago there were many grave markers to be seen there. but now only very few. mere half dozen. remain to mark the spot where braves are buried
 Stone slabs. such as might have been and probably were taken from stone walls in the vicinity, were placed at the head and foot of graves. Most of these have toppled over and erum- bled away, only few remaining. Some Of the stones have been knocked over or broken off in logging opera tions carried on lately in the woods formerly roamed by warriors.
 Naming the Pond
 The name of the pond also is be- lieved to have come from the Indian residents on it's banks. The tradition is that a warrior one day dropped his hatchet or tomahawk into the water, and though he looked long and often, he was unable to recover the lost in- strument. Hence the name.

CHAPTER "
Peter DISGUISED

Limejuice Pete! 1t did not sur
prise Peter Newhall that Bill should
take him for an Englistman. He
was pure Anglo-Saxon to start
with, his features had suggested
those of the better class of British
ers, but mostly Bill got the idea
from his southern accent-an as
cent with which the crew of the
Dolly Belts was entirely unfamiliar
but which, because it was nothing
else they knew, became English by
the process of elimination.
Only the crew of the Dolly Belts
knew that there was surviycr
from the disaster of the reefs. In
order that the whole world should
be made to believe that Peter New
hall, alias Peter Neville, had gone
down on the Jupiter he must tell
his shipmates that he, Limejulce
Pete. had been aboard and was a
survivor of the auxiliary schooner
that had sunk among the reefs, the
ship that the unfortunate Jupiter
had gone fort to save. No one ly-
ing, so far as he knew, could con-
tradict his story. Thus the world
would believe that every one aboard
the Jupiter was lost, Peter NewhaIl
of course among them.
He resolved to get up as soon as
possible, take his place in the crew
of the ship, and get what companion
