WORK ON THE NEW BANK
 TO BEGIN NEXT MONDAY

until after the first of the year, prob ably not until well toward spring. Time has not been made the essence of the contract. Quality has been con- sidered both in the selection of the materials to be incorporated in the building and in the workmanship. The work will not be hurried. The company is nicely situated at the present time, and, although in need of more room, the present quarters af- ford a suitable place to transact busi- ness. A few weeks or months more in their present quarters will make little difference when compared with the more important consideration of painstaking and unhurried eonstrue- tion
 When the new bank is ready for oc- cupancy Putnam will have one of the finest bank buildings in the state. The work will not be rushed to compile tion," but the contractors will be giv- en adequate time to do the work thor oughly and well. 4 description of the Westerly granite structure, both out side and inside, with an architects picture of the building, was printed exclusively in The Patriot, May 18th.

There was nothing m Mr' Chapdelainc's physical condition Co give warning that death was near. He was about the city as usual, Friday afternoon, and was seen by many eiti- gems driving his ear. He had not com plained of not feeling well and was apparently in his usual state of health when he retired for the night. His death came peacefully in sleep, from a heart attack.
 Saturday morning Wilfred Chap delaine, clerk in the Putnam postotiice, having been out moving the lawn, re- turned to the house and went to his fathers bedroom. It was unusual for Mir. Chapdelaine to stay in bed so long in the morning, and the fact that he was apparently sleeping was a sur prise Co his son. When the son called his father and received no response, investigation disclosed that he was dead.
