. . ~ A ..FRO'VIOUR ARCHIVES- January 1981 MEMORIES by J.W. "Hap" Lougee

. . .

The above photo was the old Elm Hotel where Mros Store is now located (note the twolarge elms in front). Itwas a boarding house with the large barn used as a livery stable.There were 4-5 horse stalls down back in the cellar and 8-10 horse stalls on the groundfloor. As I recall, the cellar stalls were cheaper and were rented to poorer people. About65 years ago, 4 of the cellar stalls were rented by my father, "Jake" Lougee and my uncleSteve Lougee. I think the other two were rented by Cy Bunker and Frank Colorney.The hotel and livery stable were owned by Cy Rollins who was a very large man who ateenough for two men. He bad a habit of eating a large meal around midnight.One night, after eating his usual large meal, he went to the icebox and got out and ate halfa large mince pie. He got sick and died of acute indigestion. (P.S. [ have not eaten mincepie since that happened 60 years ago).i Editors note: This article was re-printed in the January 1980 Puddledock Press as atribute to Mr. Lougee, frequent contributor to the Puddledock, upon his passing onDecember 12, 1980.

BEST WISHESRoger Belanger, long-time volunteer at ThePuddledock Press, is taking a break from his manvduties to take care of his health. We wish him weiland hope to see him back at work soon.

KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUSOn October 2, 1881, a group of men met

in the basement of St. Mary's church inNew Haven, Connecticut and formed afraternal organization that would one daybecome the world's largest Catholicfamily fraternal service organization.They sought strength in solidarity andsecurity through unity of purpose anddevotion to a holy cause: they vowed to bedefenders of their country, their family,and their faith.These men were bound together by theideal of Christopher Columbus, thediscoverer of. America, the one whosehand bought Christianity to the NewWorld. Their efforts came to fruitionwith the incorporation of the Knights ofColumbus on March 29, 1882.

Street that appreciates all the continued support for our many activities.Our last Ham and Bean Supper had a better turnout than we have had in a long time and we

appreciate the effort that you made to attend it. My son and I were both under the weatherand were unable to attend but understand the work crew did a fantastic job with Judy Prantisfilling in as biscuit maker.This is the time of year when your attendance is most needed as nominations are made forthe following year's membership. It amazes me that another year has gone by and we haveaccomplished much under the direction and assistance of Commander Gary Mosher. He notonly has helped organize projects but also has done much of the work with his dedicatedsupport group.Remember to save the dates for our upcoming activities: March 3, 2012 4-6PM- Ham andBean Supper and March 10, 2012 is our second Meat Raffle beginning at 5:00.
