IN MEMORIAM.


John J. Hennessey, a member of Hose Co. No. 1, died November 18, 1901, and was buried under Fire Department honors November 21, 1901. He had been an active member of the Milford Fire Department for over 20 years, and performed his duties with exceeding promptness and care. It can be said of him that during his term of over 10 years as driver of Hose 1 that he never had an accident, and was usually among the first at an alarm of fire. Previous to his last sickness, he was considered one of the best firemen in the department. He gave the best years of his life to the fire service of Milfor d. IIe was always interested in the progress of the department, and invented several of the appliances in use in the depart- ment at the present time.


In the death of Mr. Hennessey the Town has lost a faith- ful servant, and the fire department a careful and active mem- ber.

That a combination chemical and hose wagon be pur- chased; it having been demonstrated several times the past year that a great saving could be made in the extinguishment of fires by the use of a chemical engine, as usually the water damage nearly equals that of the damage by fire.
