ID. A. R. PILGRIMAGE
 !, TO STONTNGTON
Members of D. A. R. and Friends Visit Historical
 Places on Monday
Inleresting Spots on Old Pequot
 Trail

Members of Elizabeth Porter Put nam Chaper. D. A. R., with friends, twenty two in all, made a pilgrimage to North Stonington, Monday, Upon arrival they were met by Miss Grace Dennison Gates, wha with her sister, Mrs. Seth Williams, acted as their guides for the day.
 The first place visited was the Wheeler Memorial school and library. Many articles of interest are on dis play in the large room used as com munity room.
 Luncheon was served at the church nearby. The Stonington ladies furn- ished coffee.
 On the "Pequot Trail" the old post road to Stonington, many places of historical interest were seen. The home of John Randall, built in i71e, was especially interesting with it's old time wall paper and antique furnish lings. Of significance was the under ground dungeon in the kitchen for l the concealment of slaves, a unit of the underground railway" to bring slaves to the north.
 freaeheu 10 AroWos Under q tree further on thers was tablet that made known that under | its branches George Whiteheld, fam ous English preacher, discoursed to crowds unable to get into the church.
 Another house of interest was that of Rev. Ebenezer Rossiter, TYPO, which has been restored by Philadel- phia man whose mother, member of the Miner family, taught nearby.
 It was along the old Pequot trail that Captain George Dennison and his men pursued the Narragansett ln- dians and captured and beheaded their Indian chief.
 The old custom house, not now in use. was passed and the party went into the old lighthouse, with rooms fun of historic interest. Here was seen a tablet inscribed: This tablet gratefully commentaries the faithful and enduring labors of Judge Richard A. Wheeler as historian of the town and families of the town" Judge Wheeler was the father of the women who were guiding the party.
 The last but not the least interest. ing stop was at the home of Mrs. Ann Borodell Gates. (Mrs. Stanton) of New York. Mrs. Gates proved most gracious hostess and, with just pride, showed the many wonderful posses sions of the place and presented each visitor with a photocard of this old time home.
 The party passed through Old Mys- tic. Groton and returned to Putnam, covering in all i20 miles.
