EX-Gov. ENos 7. THROoP.
The venerable Gov. EnOs Il. ThrOop died
Yesterday ut his nephews residence, at Willow Brook,

Office, and, becoming q lawyer, settled In Auburn In
1911 he was Attorney Of Cayuga County and in
1876 was member OF Congress. In 1873 Mr.. Throop

and was elected by ss1 aory receiving 12si2 votes
against 40 tor Francis Granger md 233a for Ezekiel

owed his success to the support OF the Freemasons

gave evidence OF a sound mind and good judgment IN
the measures he recommended and the persons he APP
polnted to office. He was, however, deficient In llte-
rury ability and that account made singular hund-
ers, which his opponents turned to account.
He>aco uired from them the nickname OF the Small
