II is difficult to imagine that the veteran
newspaper man is no more but he passed
away this morning at the residence OF his
sister, Mrs. Nancy Allen, widow OF ST.
neon Allen, at No. Harvey street.
Everybody knew him, but for year or
more past his form was not a familiar
one on the street for he had been In very

He will be greatly missed for he was an
old landmark In the profession and often
unfolded to younger brethren quaint

Pawtucket, and a we'll known ard char.
aUteristic resident. He was born in a
house which stood on Pleasant street on
the left just north bf the approach to he

spent In Pawtucket, and his profession nal
career commenced In the old Office of he

he learned the trade OF the printer under
Robert Sherman, who was the sole pro-

worked at the trade for Ray Potter and
others. A few wears afteIward he went
away from his native place, working at
his trade, and finally obtaining position
in a printing house in Philadelphia,
which he held for a considera BILE time.
After an absence OF about a dozen years
he returned TO this city, and soon after
ward went To work on the Providence
journal as a compositor. A little later he
entered the repnrtorial field OF newspaper
work on the Providence Morning Star
and Evening Press.
He was not, as the Times stated last
evening, the first local correspondent of
that paper under Capt. Willard. He re.
mained with the Star until It's disoont inu-

until that paper was several years old.
He was the son of Seabury Tompk!ns,
one OF the Older PawtucKet residents, who
has been dead for many years.
