DEATH OF ROSWELL P. DooLIrTLE.

An Old and We'll Known Resident.
 Roswell F. Doolittle, an old and re- spected citizen of New Haven, died suddenly at his home, II Eld street, yesterday morning at about o'clock, aged seventy three years. He was ap- parently in as good health when he arose in the morning as he had been for some time back, and his death was unexpected.
 MT. Doolittle had not been in good health for several years, and the death of his wife last February greatly af- fected him, and doubtless contributed to his death.
 Funeral services will be held at his late residence, IA Eld street, this (Mon- day) evening at o'clock, and the body will be carried to Middletown for interment tomorrow morning.
 MT. Doolittle was born in Middletown in 1923, and, coming to this city when a young man, learned his trade of book binding with the late Sidney Babcock, father of United States Customs Col lector Henry H. Babcock of this city. In 1859 he was employed by the firm of Tuttle. Morehouse & Taylor, and con- tinued in the employment of the firm until ill-health compelled him to give up his trade in 1893. He was a thor oughly competent and steady workman and was highly esteemed and trusted by his employers.
 MT. Doolittle united with the Church of the Redeemer in 1856 and was reg ular attendant upon it's services until his death. He was a man of strong character, quiet, unassuming and al- ways ready to bear his share of the church work, His death will be mourn ed by a large circle of friends. Two sisters of the deceased are living in this city, and he has other relatives in Mid- dletown.
 The Rev. Dr. Phillips will officiate at the funeral this evening.
