DEATH OF AN EMINENT BRISTOL MERCHANT.—
A telegram was received in Bristol on Saturday, announc-
ing the somewhat sudden death, at Baden-Baden, of Mr.
Conrad W. Finzil, the head of the well-known and exten-
sive sugar refinery firm at Bristol. The event was wholly
unexpected, as the family had received letters from Mr.
Finzil only a few days previously announcing his inten-
tion of shortly returning to England. Mr. Final! was
the architect of his own fortune, having risenfrom the
ranks of journeyman to the eminent position he had
occupied long previous to his death. He was
of German extraction, and, by several impor-
tant improvements in sugar refining, protected by
patmts, had amassed a princely fortune. Perhaps no man
dispensed a larger amount anonymously in charity. The
asylums at Bristol, at which about 1,000 orphans are fed,
clothed, housed, and educated without any public appeal in
their behalf, and which, perhaps, are the moat remarkable
institutions of the kind in existence, partook to a great ex-
tent of Mr. Finzil's large-hearted but unobtrusive benevo-
lence. The hospitals of the city, the restoration of the noble
church of St. Mary Redcliff, and in all cases really deserv-
ing, were liberally assisted by Mr. Finzil. Where oilier
men equal, perhaps, in position and fortune, gave their tens,
the deceased gavo his hundreds, and many a subscription
list is extant in which the well known name of C. W. Finzil
appears for £l,OOO. Mr. Finzil was a Conservative, but he
was no partisan, and he preferred doing good by stealth to
hasliamst.
