you to keep your trap closed

The other man nodded.
II get you," he returned.
"What's on your mind?"
Patchy hesitated for a mo-

I'm gonna make a break"
he stated, land I'm gonna do

The kid clenched his fists.
"Patchy," he breathed, I'D

Andrew Flood, s1, father of Lester A. Flood, of Glen Ridge street and grandfather of Mrs Edgar Piercey of Atwood avenue, and a Civil War veteran who had the distinct honor of shaking hands with Abraham Lincoln twice, once at Boliver Heights, Va. again in the hospital in Washing ton, D. c. where he was recover ing from a severe wound received at Bristo station, died yesterday at the, home of Mrs Mabel Stueck in Middletown after :. lingering ill., ness. Mrs Stueck a nurse, had been caring for him for about year.
 His war relics included a pocket mirror which he purchased in Gen. terville, Va, and carried in the left side pocket of his trousers on Oc- tober IA, 1863, when he was sev- erely wounded at Bristo station. The bullet was removed from his thigh after 1t struck the mirror. He enlisted on July 23, 1862. in Middle Haddam, Conn, at the age of 20.
 He served with Company K 14th Connecticut Volunteers. He took part in the engagements at Get tysburg on July 1, and 3, 1863 and was slightly wounded at An teitam, Fredericksburg, Chancel- lorsville, Matches Run and Bristo station, where he was severely wounded. He lay on the battlefield from o'clock in the afternoon until II o'clock that night. He was helped onto a horse and rode until the next morning when he was loaded on an ambulance train which happened to be a box car. The train moved on to Washington where he entered the hospital. On November l, he was promoted to the rank of corporal for his fine service as soldier.
 He was present at Appomattox Courthouse. Va, and saw General Robert E. Lee, surrender to Gen. eral Grant. General Lee was the finest gentleman that served in the war, stated MT Flood to friends at a recent birthday celebration.
 MT Flood was discharged from the service May 30, 1865, and re- turned to East Hampton, Conn. where he resided for a time, and on December 29, 1887, married Lizzie Dutton. In 1870 he took up his trade as a carpenter and for many years was regarded as one of the most skilled workmen in East Hampton.
 After the war, MT Flood kept up the friendship with many of his comrades with whom he fought by attending many encampments. He never missed state encamp- ment or roll call of his regiment.
 The cracked mirror that defect ed the bullet and thus saved his life is now the property of the Middletown Historical Society, a gift from MT Flood.

RECEPTION FOR
 REV JOHN BRADY
Guest Speaker at St Fran= cis Xavier Holy Name
 Society Last Night
THE HALL CROWDED

The meeting of the Holy Name Society of St Francis Xavier's church last night was largely at- tended, the principal attraction being an announcement that Rev John J. Brady, who will soon leave this country for missionary work in Madagascar, would be the guest speaker. Father Brady was born in St Francis Xavier's parish and the people have a deep interest in his success. No doubt this had something to do with the attendance on such a stormy night. Daniel Baldwin presided during the busi- ness session and then handed the gavel to Rev John Dillon, who in- troduced Father Brady, who gave an interesting sketch of the La Salette order, to which he belongs. and also described life in Madagas- car. At the close of his remarks he referred feelings to his love of Washington Hill and said that no matter where he goes 1t will always have warm place in his heart He asked the prayers of all present for his success.
 A social session followed which consisted of solos by Patrick Wal lace and John Fitzmaurice, Jr.; dancing bouts by Michael and Pa trick Goggins and John Fitzmaur- ice. Andrew Cow presided at the piano for the singers and John Calvin rendered music for the dancers on the concertina.
 It was decided to hold social after Easter when Patrick Wal lace will furnish an entertainment with talent from the North End Y.
 Father Dillon thanked all present for their attendance and assured Father Brady of an abiding interest on the part of the people of St Francis Xavier's parish in his well fare.

Red Cross Asks Aid
 For Quake Victims
Bmrall Appeals for Contributions from Waterburians
 -S5O,OOO Is National Quota

John M. Burrall, chairman of
 the local Red Cross chapter has is-
 sued the following appeal:
 Governor Rolph of California has designated the American Red Cross as the official relief agency for the sufferers from the southern California earthquake. There are about 7,500 families whose homes have been destroyed or badly dam aged, and for the most part these families have no resources of their own. In their behalf a campaign has been inaugurated to obtain a $5O0,000 relief fund, to which the national organization of the Red Cross has subscribed $50,OO0.
 l. While the great bulk of this fund will be raised in the state of Cali fornia, there must be contributions from other parts of the country 1T we are to be successful.
 The people of California have for many years been most generous in contributing to Red Cross dis
 aster relief funds in behalf of other sections of the country. This present appeal is the first that has been made in their behalf since the San Francisco disaster of 19O6. We
The Waterbury Democrat., 1933-03-20

i, are most hopeful that their call for aid will not be in vain. Red Cross relief in this disaster
 must be based upon the amount of contributions received. Any contri- buttons sent to Waterbury chapter

 edged, and forwarded to Washing ton.
