Dea+b Off Grace Church Rroxxn


 MT. Isaac H. Brown, for thirty years past the famous sexton of Grace church, New York city, died Saturday night at the Totoket House, Branford. MT. Brown had spent a portion of his summer vacation for many years past in Branford. He was a man of portly, distinguished presence, genial, highly entertaining in conversation, and well in- formed gentleman of refined and cultivated taste. He had many pleasant associations in Branford, and last year furnished the funds for the erection of an Episcopal chapel near Branford Point. The chapel was dedicated yesterday. The cause of his death is attrib- uted to apoplexy. He had been sick for a number of days past, but his illness had not been considered alarming. He was famous figure in New York, and his list of acquaint- ances among prominent families there was very extensive. He was an important factor in New York society circles, and without a peer or rival in his official capacity at the wedding or the funeral. The brilliant we'd dings at Grace church for a score of years past are associated most agreeably with the name of this gentleman. He leaves a large circle of friends in New York; and all over the Union his death will be regretted His quail ities of head and heart won him many endur- ing friendships. He was frequently in this city in the summer and his commanding, notable figure made him man whom 8 stranger would at once select as man worth knowing and with history. He was for merly a resident of New Haven and married his wife here-a daughter of the late William Stowe of this city.

The Great Trottinx Meeting.

Nearly all of the horses entered in the races this week have arrived in Hartford and are now quartered at Charter Oak Park. The quarters are excellent, and early in the morn ing and in the cool hours just before evening the track is crowded with the flyers. In re- gard to the meeting the following is taken from the Springfield Republican:
 'sNow that the Hampden Park races are fair ly over, lovers of the noble horse will begin to turn their attention to the trotting on Charter Oak Park at Hartford next week. This is likely to be one of the best meetings of the circuit. It will be found that it is for the interest of both associations to have grand circuit trotting alike in Springfield and Hart ford, and there is naturallya generous rivalry between the two places in preparing and car rying out attractive programmes. The pre- miums offered at Hartford amount to $19,- OOO and an effort will be made to give the public first class meeting, conducted on business principles. The track has been put in the best possible condition, and the own CTS of both St. Julien and Maud s. are conf dant that they will beat their records at Hart ford, even if they didn't do it here."
