Thomas ES. Hayes.

Mr.. Thomas R Hayes died in this city at
10.45 o'clock Saturday evening. after an illness
of several weeks duration from hardening of
the tissues of the stomach, although he has not
been perfectly we'll man for some years
past.
Mr. Hayes was about sixty years of age.
His father was George Hayes, who was en-.
ployed in the rope-walk that formerly ran from
the corner of Park and Congress to Gray
street. Thomas was educated at the common
schools. After serving his apprenticeship at
the apothecary business he formed a partner
ship with Joshua Dargin and opened store on
Middle street, opposite where 81. 81. Hays now
stands Afterwards he formed a partnership
with Joseph Mitchell, under the name of T.
r, Hayes & Co. When that firm dissolved
Mr.. Hayes accepted position as ticket agent
in this city for the P. S. & P. railroad While
acting in this capacity there WAS a rush of bus
mess and the company desired Mr.. Hayes to
work on Sunday. This Mr.. Hayes declined to
do, owing to religious scruples, although he
knew it would Cost him his situation, and he
could ill-sfford to lose it. Re then accepted
clerbship with the late Luther Dana, and af-
crockery business. Then the two formed
co-partnership under the name CT Steele &
Hayes. which continued many years, and, after
the death of Mt Steele, was aud still is per-
p-tuated under the name Of Hayes & Douglass.
Mr.. Hayes had been President of the Young
Mems Christian Association, first President Of
the Mercantile Library Association and Secre-
tary of the Portland Benevolent Society.
Mr.. Hayes was man of most genial nature,
and a man largely interested in all Christian
work. He became membsr of State street
church when it was organized in 1852, and was
one of its deacops at his decease. he was
highly respected and esteemed by all who
knew him. As layman none had more
influence in his denomination in the state than
Mr.. Hayes, none were considered bstter versed
in church polity, or better correspondent on
church matters.
