TRIBUTE FROM THE PRESIDENT TO De.
PARTED FRIEND.-The following extract of q
letter, written by the President to friend in
New Hampshire, on receiving the intelligence
of the sudden death of Hon. Samuel 81. Aver,
whose decease we recorded a few days since,
we take from the Daily Mirror, New Hamp.
shire):
II have Just received a telegraphic dispatch,
announcing the sudden death of my tried,
thoroughly appreciated, and beloved friend,
Samuel II. Aver. The gifted and lamented
Carroll and Mr.. Aver were students in my
Office at the same time, and my interest in their
fortunes was hardly less than that of father.
How early and how suddenly have they been
called away from earth, and how many hearts
each has left to deplore their early loss, both
on public and personal grounds! They were
both men of rare attainments. and talents.
Each in different lines had earned high dis
tinction and among just and honorable men
universal confidence and esteem.
Mr.. Aver was in my Office nearly three years,
and went thence to Hillsborough, and after the
death of another friend, whose memory shall
always cherish, (the late Albert Bakery occu'
pied the office in which commenced practice.
The town honored him by its confidence, and
he reflected back that honor by the noble exer.
else of those strong powers which placed him
among the first men in the State, and elevated
him at an early age to the Speakers chair of
the House of Representatives. To you who
have been SO closely associated with him the
blow must be crushing. What it is to me no
man can better understand than yourself. Soon
after he left college, he became my pupil, after
wards my companion, and continued ever my
true and trusted friend. In all our long and
intimate intercourse nothing ever occurred to
disturb for moment our delightful relations.
His directness Of purpose, his courage, and his
manhood were always conspicuous whenever
those qualities were called for. There will be
for him hosts Of sincere mourners, but no one
can deplore the loss more deeply than myself"
