THE LATE MERRITT c. SHELTON.
 In the death of Merritt c. S1ilton, re- gently deceased, Watertown loses one of it's first citizens, a man of high integ- rity and with a reputation for honesty and all that is noble in man, which few attain. The following resolutions have been submitted to Christ church by Rev H. N. Cunningham, rector.
 Whereas, we have been deprived by death of the faithful services of Merritt C. Skilton, for l2 years junior warden and for some time superintendent of the Sabbath school in this parish.
 Be it resolved, That swe commend to the members of Christ church the ex- ample of his faithfuIness in office and his purity and integrity in every day life. His Christianity was not mere external garment to be put on when oc- casjon requires, but it regulated his whole life, with care and deliberation he put on the whole armor of God. His uprightness marked him as having his }ojas girt abuu5 with truth and having ol the broastpl8te of righteousness. His pg. fence and steadiness marked a man who knew how to use the shield of faith and the sword of the spirit and wear the helmet of the hope of salvation. To his bcrcayed children we who also are beroavcd tender our warmest condo lcuce and sympathy.
