GIDDINGs H. BALL0U.

The last of noted family is gone. Gid
dings Hyde Ballou, the eldest son and last
surviving member of the family of Rev. Hosea
Balou I'd, D. D., died in Chatham, June 8,
in the Goth year of his age. He had been Sc
riously ill for some months, and the dread
messenger was welcomed &c relieving him
from pain that he had borne patiently but
felt that he could not endure longer. He had
never possessed vigorous health, but yet had
always lived a busy, active and useful life.
His mind was of the higher order and he
found his enjoyment in the higher duties and
finer relations of life. An artist of good
ability, for forty years he painted portraits
that now in double sense are cherished me-
mentoes in many homes, and although he
did not claim to be painter of anything but
the human face and form, he has produced
landscapes that are highly priced. He had
fine literary taste, and was familiar with the
best literature and was an able and interest
ing writer. Combining literature with art,
and blending with both his genial good hui
NOR, he furnished some of the most enjoya-
BILE illustrated articles that appeared in Har-
quently over some nom de plume, and the
readers of various periodicals, without know
ing it, were often indebted to his mind and
pen for the sources of their enjoyment. Dnr
ing the war he was secular editor of the Cos
pei Banner, and gained for that paper credit
for an exceedingly carefully prepared and
readable weekly summary of the stirring
Al t., l.
the sincere affection of his associates and the
respect and gratitude of thousands of read
ers. Later he was for eight or ten years in
the service of the Government, preparing
statistics for the Bureau of Agriculture, and
always, in whatever he was engaged, whether
in teaching the bright boys and girls of the
ship masters of Cape Cod, or painting por-
traits, or writing history of the war, or work
ing for the nation, he did his work faithfully
and we'll. Conscientiousness and fidelity
were the leading traits of his character, and
although so modest and retiring as to shrink
always from public notice, he was thorough
ly respected and esteemed by all who knew
him well.
In many places, but especially ON the Cape,
where the most or his active years were
passed, he had numerous friends, from
whom, during his painfulsic he received
the kindest attentions and sympathy. They
feel that in his death they have lost valued
friend and neighbor and an excellent citizen.
In both faith and practice he was genuine
Christian. A short time before his death he
expressed the wish that it might be publicly
stated at his funeral that he died as he had
lived, Uniyersalist. His funeral was at
tended by his pastor, Rev. Mr.. Couden, as
sisted by the Congregational minister of the
village, both of whom spoke ably and cor
daily of his high character and ability. He
leaves widow to mourn his loss, but no chill
dren. With him the family record ends.
There now remains no living descendant of
Rev. Hosea Ballou 2d.-Leader.
