Added Selling Point Boosts Bristol Industry Bid
At a recent town meeting the motion to build two road stretches to the proposed factory site on Franklin street failed. Supporters argue tax exemptions for new industry show backing, while backers hope the decision will not deter future manufacturers and will simplify selling Bristol as an industrial location.

Uncle Henrys Wedding Delights Crowd With 19th Century Stage Farce
The curtain jerks through an energetic revival of Uncle Henrys Wedding with a large cast. Henry Lawson as Bessie Bustle Gurl draws laughs alongside Louise DeWolf as Sister Lucy Jones and a chorus of Colored Brethren and Sistren delivering songs and jubilation. The wedding climax features Charles Liscomb and Samantha Green among a parade of disguises and historical figures, ending with a seance to locate Uncle Henry. The revue blends dance, joke, and period pageantry with prominent roles filled by DeWolf, Oswald LeClair, John Magee, and a host of performers from the Mystic Shrine and local theatre community.
