Resignation of Trustee Carter.

Michael J. Carter has tendered his resignation as one of the village trustees. For some time Mr. Carter has held a position under the U. S. Government as superintendent of the telephone service connecting the life saving stations on the Long Island coast, and the government requires that he shall give his entire time to that service, hence his resignation as trustee.
