Wide-Awakes Rally in Wigwam Ends With Torch Parade
About four to five hundred attended the Wide-Awakes meeting at the Wigwam on Friday evening. Frank Sawyer of Norwalk and Trudge Parnen of Finding delivered first rate speeches amid enthusiastic applause. A torch light procession followed, winding through streets on both sides of the river before returning to the Wigwam. The crowd contrasted with a Democratic turnout two nights earlier, and some new converts were noted among former Democrats as campaign talk heated up.
