She could look both ways now, up

She waited silently and motionless-

in ball between her hands, and her

was kept there. Notwithstanding the
progress 1t made at the beginning.
Old Residents
The fire prompted us to look
around the neighborhood, on this
chilly morning, in an effort to re-
call some Of the homes Of the fine
old Irish families who lived there
once upon time. We can recall
the Shannahans, the Kehoes, the
Earlys, the Cartys, the Cronins, the
Hickeys, the Lynches, the Bagleys,
the Brickels, and the Mahoneys.
The building, where the fire took
place was once owned by the we'll
known Mahoney family. Its owner
today is John DeAngelo of 2l0
Charles street.
Lafayette street, until railroad
changes took place, was once part
of South Riverside street. The only
non Irish resident was a highly
thought Of Frenchman, John Sau-
tereau. The residents held meet
ing, and at the suggestion of Mr..
Sautereau decided to petition the
authorities to change the name to
Lafayette street, in honor of the
great French soldier and statesman.
And that was how the street was
renamed.
We hadn't supposed colored peo-
pie were living on the old street
until we observed for ourselves. The
Jones went across the street to the
home of another colored family,
where they were interviewed by
Capt. William G. Russell in the
presence of Patrolman Fiore, Pri-
vate Legge and the marshal.
Vine Street
Didn't you live on Vine street
before you lived here" observed
the captain, land wasn't your home
on fire up there one night two or
three years ago."
"Oh, no, Mr.. Fireman." replied
Mrs. Jones, "the fire was right next
door to us, but of course we're were
around there, with the other peo-
ple."
In reply to the further question
ing of the captain, Mrs. Jones said
the family had moved to Waterbury
from South Carolina in 1920.
None of the tenants carried in
surance.
