A quiet home wedding took place 
Monday, Oct. 4, at 24 Bloomingdale 
street, Chelsea, the home of the bride’s 
aunt, Mrs. S. E. Knight, the contract- 
ing parties being Edward W. Ayers and 
C. Jessie Hall, both of Manchester. 
The ceremony was performed by Rev. 
Dr. Bakeman, pastor of the First Bap- 
tist church of Chelsea. Mr. and Mrs. 
Ayers will live on Pine street, Manches- 
ter. 
The Manchester fire department was 
called out about six o’clock last evening 
by a double alarm, one being sent in 
from the telephone exchange and the 
other from the central station. “There 
was a bonfire onthe rear of the Walsh 
property on Pine street, and some one 
seeing the reflection telephoned for the 
department, thinking a house was on 
fire. Substitute driver Lomasney, who 
is taking care of the fire horses in Driver 
Chadwick’s absence, got away in quick 
shape and was at the scene of the sup- 
posed conflagration four minutes after the 
alarm was sent in, but all the department 
could do was to turn around and come 
back. 
Several Manchester people have re- 
ceived cards the last week for the wed- 
ding on Wednesday the 20th of this 
month, at Stepney, Conn., of Miss Ellen 
Bridle, daughter of Mrs. Jane Eliza 
Taylor, to Arthur Johnson Hull. The 
ceremony will be performed at one 
o’clock at the Methodist Episcopal 
church of that place, and will be follow- 
ed by a reception at the home of the 
bride. Mr. Hull, it will be recalled, was 
principal of the G. A. Priest school some 
ten years ago. After leaving here he 
attended the Law School at Yale, and 
after graduation from there he took up 
the practice of law at Bridgeport, Conn. 
He has been quite successful. He was 
elected a member of the General Court 
of that state several years ago. 
George Gould was given a ‘‘send off’ 
last Friday evening by the members of 
the Carpenters’ Union, and on Wednes- 
day evening he was given another fare- 
well by the members of the Red Men. 
At the meeting of the carpenters there 
were some 50 members present. A 
collation was served after the business 
meeting, and singing, and_ informal 
speechmaking was indulged in. The 
Red Men at their meeting Wednesday 
evening presented Bro. Gould, who has 
served the tribe so faithfully as collector, 
with a beautiful past sachem’s jewel. A 
collation was served. Mr. Gould is 
leaving Manchester next week and with- 
in a few weeks he will start for Oak- 
land, Cal., where he will live in the 
future.

Veuve Chaffard Olive Oil, 
Business Note. 
John F. Scott, who has been in the 
employ of R. Robertson & Co., the 
well known North Shore plumbing con- 
cern, for the last 17 years, the last two 
years as manager of their Manchester 
branch, has leased a shop in the Post- 
office block, Beach street, Manchester, 
and has established himself in the plumb- 
ing and heating business under the title 
of “‘John F. Scott, Plumber, Sanitary 
and Heating Engineer.’’ 
Seventeen years of continual service 
with one concern, during which time he 
has superintended many of the largest 
contracts in his line along the North 
Shore, is sufficient proof of his ability, 
and ought to show that he is fully qual- 
ified to attend to any future business that 
may come his way. 
Mr. Scott and family make their 
home in Manchester, and have made 
many friends since coming here. 
We join with his many friends in 
wishing Mr. Scott success in his new 
venture. 
Objects to Tax. 
Ernest W. Longfellow, a summer re- 
sident at Coolidge’s Point, claims he 
has been illegally taxed by the town of 
Manchester for 1908 and 1909 to the 
amount of $1021, and brought suit in 
the U. S. circuit court for an injunction 
against the town tax collector Edwin P. 
Stanley, to restrain him from attempting 
to collect the tax, and to restrain the as- 
sessors from taxing him in the future. 
Longfellow claims his domicile is, was 
and has been since 1884 in New York 
city, and that he was not a legal resident 
of Manchester. 
The tax collector, he declares, threat- 
ens to enforce the payment of the taxes, 
and that is why he is after an injunction 
against him. The assessors levied a poll 
tax in each year, besides a personal tax 
of $500 in 1908 and $517 in 1909. 
They did not specify, he says, what the

The town, meanwhile, through its 
counsel, W. ©. Underwood had en- 
tered a suit against Mr. Longfellow for 
the collection of taxes for these two 
years. ‘The town suit was entered one 
and a half hours before the suit in the 
U. S. court, and the town’s suit will 
naturally be the first to be taken up.
