Horace Ell. Smalley, we'll known to
most Of this community, died at his
home in New York City, on Sunday
the 9th, inst, of pneumonia, after an
illness of only eight days. His sister,
Emma, and brother, George H., were
with him and did all that medical skill
and nursing could do to save him. His
funeral was held in New York, and
the burial at Lowell, Mass, where he
| lived for about eleven years, and
where he buried three children. The
floral offerings, rich and numerous, and
eloquent words spoken at both places,
showed that he was held in high es-
TEEN, in business, and in church re-
latiOns. He leaves q son nine, and
daughter five years old, and wife,
whose loss is beyond the power Of
words to express. Sunny and gener-
Gus in disposition, an earnest Christ
ian, who 'let his light shine" by deed
as we'll as word, he made friends
wherever he went, and many will
feel life richer for having known him.
