 Born in Holding, Denmark, MT. Larson was in his 61st year. He had been in i'll health for a consider able length of time. He was found dead in the cellar of his home, 98 Randolph avenue, early last eve- ming. Dr. Edward H. Kirschbaum, medical examiner, examined the body and said that MT. Larson had taken his life by hanging.
 In III Health
 MT. Larson was in a Respondent mood for some time because of his failing health. His death removes from the community one of the most prominent and most highly respect ed citizens. MT. Larson was edu- cated in the public schools of Kold- ing, Denmark, and came to Water bury 42 years ago.
 Shortly after coming to Water bury he organized 8 moving and storage firm which he headed for 36 years. The concern started in the old Moriarty block on East Main street in 1899 and in 1915 he bought the Frank Benham property on North Main street where he erected 8 large storage warehouse. Even trlally he opened his large furniture store at that same place. In the days of the legitimate stage Mir. Larson handled all the scenery for well remembered plays staged at the old Poli theater.

He took a very keen interest in the Children,s Health Foundation which the Lions club organized to aid crippled chil- dren. MT. Larson was not 8 wealthy man but nevertheless with his mod est means he established himself as a philanthropist. He also took keen interest in yachting and maintained large boat at the Mil- ford harbor. For several years he spent his winters in Florida fishing.
 MT. Larson was also a member of the Waterbury Lodge of ElkS, . charter member of Euclid Lodge of Masons and a member of the local lodge of the Woodmen of the World. He is listed as having been one of the oldest members of the Water bury Y. M. c. A. He was mem- Der of St. Johns Episcopal church for 40 years.
 Of late years MT. Larson left the handling of his furniture business largely in the hands of his son, Will bur, who is also head of the origi- nal Larson Storage company.
 The deceased was married in 1901 to Sarah Bryan. Mrs. Larson sur- wives MT. Larson along with three children, Mrs Ralph Nourse of Bloomfield, Wilbur Larson of this city and Mrs. A. T. Sperry of Mill ford.
 Active in Business
 In the business field MT. Larson was decidedly active. He was a mem- Der of the Chamber of Commerce and the Waterbury Credit Rating Bureau. For many years tho family home was at 50 Columbia boulevard but 6 few years ago the deceased purchased property at 1l2 Prospect street where he lived for short time before moving into the Ram dolph avenue residence.
 Last February MT. and Mrs. Lar- son went to Florida for few weeks. When he returned to Waterbury MT. Larson,s health had not improved and he became quite Respondent.

could see no tracks. if indeed
there were any to see.
"You say you seen his heaG?"
old man Golfer whispered.
Silas hooded. They could find
nothing. Silas' quick shooting
evidently had gone wild, but had
served to brighten the assailant
away. Could the assailant have
been an animal? Some mountain
lion, perhaps, poised as cats do
to look down for possible game
that had accidently pushed against
boulder loosened in the last
rain? The men discussed it as a
possibility, but Silas swore some
what indignantly that he knew a
mans head when he saw it, even
in twilight.
Stuart and CarOlee rode up
soon after the two men had climb
ed back down. They were greatly
alarmed at the discovery. It SEEM
ed patiently an attempt on the
Golfer mems lives, and Stuart
said so.
The old man NODDED agreement.
The four did good deal of talk
ing, in fact, and the Golfer men
finally admitted they had suspect
ed Stuart of trying to get revenge
on them heretofore, and maybe
to drive them away from the gold
hunt.
But you was back there at tn
Lodge this time" Silas remarked.

But as shore as tn devil made

Stuart had seen cowboys work
ing good deal of late and he had
picked up Il trick or two. He car
ried a strong lariat on his saddle.
With it he and his horse "snaked"
the biggest rock out of the road

keeping careful watch of the cliff
top meanwhile.
"All clear now" Stuart called
gaily. "Tll go back from here.
Sure glad you weren't hmt, Mr..
Golfer, and Silas. This puts new
light on a lot of Ghings, but it
leaves dark spot somewhere just
the same. Do you have any idea
who's been trying to kill us?
Shooting at my dad, and throwing
rocks. and-Paul?"
They couldn't guess. Carolee
looked helplessly up at him, sad
dened at the tragic events.
"Well, | have! | have an idea,
but I'll have to check on it first.
Don't any of you go up there
