HARRY w, BEEDE.

The death OF Mr.. Harry W. Beede,
which occptred at Paris Hill on Satur-
day last. cduses his many friends the
deepest SORROW. He came here with his
mother fr,im Somerville, Mass, about
three week. ago, after physicians in Bos-
ton and elsewhere could give him no
encouragement, hoping that a change OF
air and surroundings might be beneficial !;
but thoughlhe struggled hard to shake
off the "fell destroyer" he had got too
firm holdt TO release his grasp.
He was aiyoung man Of rare ability
and promiJe, and was very popular
among his icquintances aud employers.
In lettet to his mother, dated April
l2th. 1895, Nessrs. Bartlett Il Anderson,
attorneys mi Boston, where he was en-
ployed as stenographer, wrote as fol-
lows: 1--WE wish to say to you that We
have thought everything. OF him, and
that we arG as greatly disappointed as
he is to think that he cannot return and
resume his Huties with US. He has been
a most con,Ienial companion in the office,
and we hav,I nothing but words OF praise
10 say of hih."
During his brief stay in this place last
summer hJ endeared himself by his
genial and happy disposition and manly
qualities to hli his acquaintance. Har-
nv was loting and dutiful son, ever
ready and Willing to deny himself for
the Happiness of others.
His brother came here from Nebraska
about two Weeks ago to assist in caring
for and comforting him In his last days
of sufieringt
The many friends here OF his mother,
Mrs. Fannitj +. Beede, unite In extend.
| ing to her shd to his brother Herbert
their heartfelt sympathy in their deep
afiIiction. May the great Ruler OF the
universe comfort them in their sorrow.
