IN M EMORIAM.

The Late Ex-Mayor John II. Robert-
try.
At special meeting of the vestry of
Trinity church, in New Haven, held Fri
day evening, July Is, the following minute
and vote were adopted:
The rector, warden and vestrymen of
the parish of Trinity church, New Haven,
have learned with sincere emotion that it
has pleased Almighty God in his wise
providence to take out of this world the
soul of our deceased associate and friend,
John Brownlee Robertson, late junior war
den.
DIR. Robertson had, for long while, en-
joyed in a remarkable degree the con-
fidence and even the affectionate regard of
his fellow citizens. His considerate treat
his manners and the kindness of his
disposition, gave him great and unusual
charm. He was good citizen, devoted
to the last days of his life, to the best in
terests of New Haven. Bitterness and
malice were foreign to his nature, so that
he sought to allay animosities and con-
tentions, and to follow peace with all men.
But our departed brother was more than
man simply of civic virtues. He was a
firm, unwavering believer in our Lord
Jesus Christ and in the gospel of his grace,
while his devotion to the church was singu-
larly strong. Trinity parish, in particular,
will have occasion to miss and remember
him long. He was one of our very oldest
communicates and was chosen member of
the vestry in 1886. He was elected junior
warden in the year 1876, which Office he held
continuously to the date of his decease. He
was constant attendant upon the meet
ings of the vestry and faithful in the
discharge of his official duties. In his re-
gard for the church he showed in his old
age all the enthusiasm of youth. He was
80 sensitive and jealous for all the varied
interests of the parish that he might have
said: "Who is weak, and I am not weake
Who is offended, and burn not9" To be
present at the public services of the
church was genuine delight, and if he
who noticed his absence felt assured that
he was kept away for cause; for all
knew that be loved the house of God and
tho place where his honor dwelleth.
We extend to his family our heartfelt
sympathy. The blow they feel has come
with q suddenness for which they were
entirely unprepared. Aged man that he
was they did not dream that death was
near; they thought of him as If he were in
the fullness Of life and not as one
who was descending with unceasing
steps towards the grave. We commend
them to the care Of our all-gracious God,
who orders the life and death Of man ac-
cording to the counsel of his eternal wis
dom. May the blessing of God rest on the
stricken household.
Voted, That this minute be entered upon
the records of the parish and that copy
thereof be sent to the family of the de-
ceased.

THE ATLANTIC CABLE.

Further Points About tho Big Celc-
bration Here Recalled.
Apublic spirited New Haven gentleman,
long prominent in municipal and other
public affairs here years ago, writes from
the Grand Union hotel, Saratoga Springs,
to the COURIER as follows:
received your valuable paper contain
ing the account of tThe Gable Exultation"
in your city. It is generally correct, but
lacks some facts of detail, which may be
of interest. viz:
The news of the cable came early in the
day. The late LeGrand Cannon Eyor said
to the writer: 'sThis is great event, wor-
thy of celebration-the great event of the
age!"
The writer, catching the spirit, immedi-
ately arranged with the gunner to fire a
salute of seventy-five or one hundred
guns forgetting which)
The gunner said: ct have seventy-five
or one hundred cartridges made for one
political party unused" Order was given
to fire away. 1t was done and done well.
The late Mr. Willis Bristol of Bristol &
Hall came to the writer, saying:
81 want to pay one-half the expense"
which was duly declined, the writer pre-
| ferring no half way. From this firing of
guns in New Haven on the day of the
reported receipt of the first message by
cable came the greatest enthusiasm ever
exhibited in this country Except 4th of
july north, south, east and west.
The common council, taking up the
| matter, gave the writer "carte blanche" to
purchase in New York all necessary appli-
| ances for the celebration to be general
vrhioh tho oornoi1 rofa1 uaaly
later and which went like wildfre over
the length and breadth of the whole ma
ton, as all old residents will remember.
do not care for notoriety in this state
| ment, but as a matter of history the facts
ought to be known. M.
