Having been connected with the deceased in an
official capacity and otherwise, for several years,
l am most happy TO add my testimony to his eff
hcleney and capacity as public object In him
the city and the Commonwealth have lost one
who had but few supsriors in his profession. Il
is pleasant to his friends, it be grateful to
the hearts Of his family, TO know that he ap-
precated by his associates, and to hear the test-
mony coming to them from every quarter. that
his life'a work, so sadly and suddenly terminated,
was well done
l wish to bear testimony also TO Mr.. Warren's
manly and generous nature. He had large,
warm and synPathising heart The poor OF the
city, during the few days that in ervened between
the fatal blow and death, thronged about his door
70 obtain tdngs OF him who was ever their
friend. In the cold days Of the coming Winter,
they will llsten for his footstep in vain. His
hand will never more minister to their wants.
GU will permit me here to offer my tribute Of
personal friendship to the memory OF MIR. War
rem. Always separated from political associa-
tions, to me he was ever true and generous
friend Looking back over the few past years, |
remember many kind acta performed by him, at
tended sometimes with personal exertnns and in
convenience. Irsmembsr, also, many kind words
Of encouragement; and good cheer, which cost less
than deeds, but which fall upon the heart like
rain upon the thirsty earth
With tender respect for the memory Of Mr..
Wsrren, and cordial appreciation Of hiB worth,
second the suggestion Of Assistant Marshal
Denny.
