least where to find him every time. He
 possessed what is not the commonest
 thing in the world, good common sense
 and sound practical judgement, which
 made him valuable counselor and ad-
 wiser in either public or private affairs.
 While he undoubtedly would look after his own interests land who in this sell fish, grasping world will not it cannot be successfully charged that he eyer be- trayed the trusts committed to him or that he went further than most men in the pursuit of his rights or interests. These things depend very much upon the glasses through which we view them.
 We look through the rose-tinted glass of favor or interest and exclaim, How beau tiful! We then look at the same object through the smoked glass of prejudice and we raise our hands and eyes and exclaim, O, how frightful!
 Whatever may be said of him in other respects it cannot be denied that the deceased possessed business talents and executive abilities above the average. He was not man to thrust himself forward and seek distinction and notoriety. He may have seemed sometimes slow to en- gage in new enterprises, but once em- parked in them he pursued them with an energy and perseverance which gen. erally earns success. When the Con- necticut Western railroad was first pro- jected he was not perhaps enthusiastic callY favorable to it, but when 1t was determined that the road should be built he engaged in the enterprise and rendered valuable services in its con- struction, as he did in the directory, and it was perhaps in a great measure due to his efforts and influence that a union depot building was put up here, which is such an addition and ornament to the place, and the thought may here occur to some whether if practicable business talent, judgment and experi- ence such as his had been continued In the management or had been more largely infused into it the bonds of the company would to-day be quoted at merely nominal price. That he had faith in the enterprise at first is shown by the facts that he became personally responsible for large amount to sus- tain the credit of the road, and practi- cally sunk the greater part of his for tune in it. If the deceased had done nothing more for the community in which he lived than supplying them with an abundant supply of good, pure, wholesome water flor he conceived the project and in great measure carried it to successful termination) he would be entitled to their respect and grati- tude and the Canaan water will remain an enduring monument to his enter prise and public spirit.
