The Late Il. w. Wilmot Formerly O
West Haven-A Tribute to His Mem

The Late e. W. Wilmot Formerly of
West Haven-A Tribute to His Mem.
DRY From the Redlands Paper.
Concerning the lamented E. W. Wilmot
of Redlands. Gal formerly of West Haven,
the Redlands Leader has very fitting words
In tribute to his memory. In addition to
the brief sketch of his life which has been
given in our columns, the following from
the Redlands paper will interest his many
friends here's
'It is q sad and painful duty to record
the death of one 80 universally respected
and whose removal creates so wide gap
in the community and the family as that
of Mr.. Wilmot. The maxim that death
loves a shining mark is fully exempli6ed
in this instance, as the worth and genuine
good qualities, the sterling integrity and
the kindly heart of its present victim
is attested by broad CIRCLE of acquaint-
ances and business associates. Daring
his five years residence he has become
q part of Redlands, and its interests
and welfare, together with that of many
| of Its commsndable enterprises, were very
| near his heart. Public spirited and zeal
GUS In advancing every improvement for
| the good of the place and the community,
he has left record that might we'll be en-.
ulated. Kind and sffectionste in his fam
lily and ever ready to extend aid to others
his children will miss his fatherly counsel
and care, his grief stricken wife fond and
devoted husband and his neighbors an eve1
willing hand in any need. His advice ir
business matters, which was repeatedly
sought, was always considered as sound
and his judgment, always conservative ir
its tendency, was followed with safety. Il
is safe to say that no person in Rsdlandi
WAS 30 widely known or enjoyed mor'
explicit confidence of his fellow men in al
business transactions. To quote the Ian
guage of a townsman, "his word was a
good as his bond"
Since his removal to Redlands he ha
been engaged largely in the sale of res
estate and the management Of the affair
of the Redlands and Al!esandro Improve
msnt company, and the Rsdlsnds Orang
Grove aud Water company, in which or
CARNATIONS he was a director and vice
| president. He was also a director In tn
J Redlands Heights Water company and Wa
similarly Identified with the Rsdlauds
Grafton and Lrgonia Domestic Water com
pany, besides bsing president and manage
of the Redlands street railway. Two sister
! of the deceased live in Redlands, Mrs
Samuel L Smith and Mrs R. w. Brown
mother of F. E Brown and c
Mira. B. O. Johnson, Besides his wifi
he leaves three children, Clifford, age
nineteen, Paul, AGED seventeen, an
Marion. aged four years. He WAS unit
Sunday evening in his usual good healt
and spirits, when he was taken with
euddsn aud acute attack Of sciatics t
|. which he had at times been subject. 81
suffering from this cause continued witt
out abatement until 2 O'Clock Monds
morning, when he bscame unconsciou
from an apoplectic stroke, ia which cond
| ton he remained until tbs end"
