the most important positions, and one for which he was eminently qualifed-that of chairman of the finance committee In 1873 he was one of the special commissioners for the examination of the savings banks of the State. But with all the honors won by the performance of his duties in the offices named he was as Treasurer of the State at various times most widely known and es- teemed for his abilities. He served in 1S69 1871 and 1872, and under his careful and ex- perlenced administration the financial affairs of Connecticut were ably conducted. He in stltuted the plan of requiring banks in which State funds were deposited to pay interest thereon, and this has yielded large rev. enue to the State. In the fall of 1880 he was again placed on the Republican ticket as Treasurer, and was elected, succeeding Hon. Tallmadge Baker, of South Norwalk.
 MT. Nichols was staunch Republican, and man whose influence ard counsels in the party were of very gneat importance. He was an active worker, and his high business integrity gave his work weight with the people of the State. By his death the con- l monwealth loses one of the best of citizens, l and one whose loss will be deplored not only ] in his own community or by those who knew him personally, but by thousands who knew him save by reputation as a valued official, who had given to the State the full benefits

Leonard Bacon, D. D., ILL. D.

The crowded city's solemn be''s Toll sadly forth the last of saI h, And every peal of sorrow tells
 How much we loved and prised thy worth. o firm of faith and true of heart!
 Thy memory shall not pass away, Though God hath called thy better part
 To mansions of eternal day. No more shall listening thousands hear
 In church oI hall thy stately voice, While foes of truth and justice fear, And friends of righteousness rejoice. But we'll thy work on earth was done
 Soldier of Christ lay down thy arms, Thy battle fought, thy victory won,
 Rest safe from every foes alarms. And truly may we call thee blest, The promise is fulfilled in thee; That from thy labors thou shalt rest,
 While all thy works shall follow thee. ..C4Imly" thy light ssforsakes our" sky
