The death of Edward Crosby is felt as
burden of sorrow. with a sense of loss, in
this section as well As elsewhere. The
public spirit he manifested, the interest he
felt and the efforts he made for the Brat
tleboro and Wilmington railroad secured to
him many fast friends in this part of the
county He freely spent time and money
for the benefit of the southern part of the
county, which would have brought out,
especially in Wilmington and Nottingham,
resources which can never be fully devel-
oped without railroad facilities Those eff
forts, though apparently unsuccessful, were
appreciated, and were the initiatory steps
TO an enterprise that in the end will be
successful. The frequent references 20 the
railroad in months past clearly indicate that
its Importance and need are steadily and
deeply impressing the minds Of the people
generally. Mr. Crosby was deeply devoted
to this object, and though leader is gone
its Importance remains, and though meth
DDS may not now be foreseen, the day may
not he far distant when the object will be
accomplished. While advancing the public
good, perhaps no more fitting memorial
could be found to honor and keep in CRATE
full remembrance a man Of so large a heart
and liberal hand as the completed object in
which he had been so deeply interested
