In MEMoRIAM Albert Dennis Barnard
died to this life, at his home in Waitsfeld,
early Friday morning, March g., His age
was thirty lone years For him this mortal
has put on immortality, aud death is swal-
| lowed up in victory. Very suddenly the
| call came and our hearts are left lonely. A
happy home is broken; the community has
! lost promising and successful young bust
ness mar, and the Congregational church,
OF which he was member, will ever miss
his growing and helpful, earnest life. We
cannot measure the loss that has come to
us. To the young wife so suddenly left
with added cares and responsibilities, and
the two little children left to gladden. her
life, and also to the aged father and mother
in their great loss, and to the sister, the
sympathy of many hearts goes out in ten
derness. Funeral services were held at his
late home on Sunday, March 8, at twelve
O'Clock noon, in charge of Rev. e. s. Fiske,
the pastor Dea. II N. Bushnell was con-
ductor, and George w. Wallis, Levi Wilder,
Edward Prentiss and Will Bragg were
bearers. Interment was in the village Gem
etery. Many flowers were brought as low
ing tributes by the Endeavor Society and
