Thomas Francis Carpenter
Died at his residence In Westminster street, In
Providence, on the morning of the l4th inst, at
four O'Clock, at the age Of ftyeght years. He died
OF eryspeias after an illness Of only four days. For
many years q prominent member Of the democratic
party and holding very high position at the Rhode
Island bar, he was universally Known in this COM
munity, and his sudden death will create deep
sensation. He was born in Cranston on the 2lst
day of February, 1896. He graduated at Brown
University in the class Of 1918, with the second
honors of his class, and with o high reputation as
scholar. He studied and has always practised his
profession in this city. He held at one time the
Office OF Major General OF the militia of this State,
and on two different occasions, in closely contested
elections, permitted the use of his name as candi-
date for Governor, it being supposed that he could
command larger vote than any other member of
his party. General Carpenter did not seek public
Office. He declined the office of District Attorney
for the district under the administration of General
jackson. Nitor IN aarersum has been his motto.
He has accumulated handsome fortune, and ut
auy time within the last ten years. II any member
Of the bar bad been asked, Who all things con-

formidable opponent In any case in litigation be-
fore the courts of this State, he would have named
General Carpenter. For several years he has been
the most successful advocate in the State, and few
jury causes of much Importance have been tried in
which he has not appeared as leading counsel.
General Carpenter was man OF genuine kindness
and benevoence. His private charities were IS ex-
tensive Us they were unostentatious. Students in
his office, and those who familiar with his daily
walk had abundant opportunities to observe this
trait in his character and the numerous recipients
of his bounty will bear witness to its truth H. was
always ready to obige friend, and in 80 graceful
manner as not unfrequenily to leave the impress
sion that he was rather receiving than giving IA
vor. Many young men will long remember with
gratitude the professional and pecuniary assistance
which they have received at the hands Of General
Carpenter. No man was more beloved in the do
nestle relations than General Carpenter, and no
man could number larger circle of those who
cherished towards him kindly feelings, and were de-
sirous TO perform towerds him all the oces OF good

He complained somewhat on Sunday, and on Mon.
day his disease had developed itself; and 80 rapid
its progress. that the news Of his death reaced
most Of his friends, and many Of his profe ssional
brethren, before they had heard OF his illness. A
