DEATH OF ELI COGER.
ONE OF THE OLD AND HIGHLY ESTEEMED
 CITIZENS OF THE TOWN.

Eli Coger, who had passed the line o1 I four score years, died on Sunday morn ing after brief illness. Although NIT
 Coger had given up business responsibil- ty, he was as active as ever, and the Tuesday before his death was at work in the mill. On Wednesday he was taken ill with symptoms of pneumonia, which developed rapidly, and combined with imperfect action of the heart caused his death.
 Eli Coger was born in Derby, July 10, 1874. His father died when he was a boy and through misfortune he was plac- ed in tLe poor house. But this was no place for an active boy like Master Coger and he ran away and came to Southbury. During his boyhood he worked for such we'll known men as Elizur Mitchell, Cyrus Mitchell and William Guthrie, all of whom have long since passed away. He came to Sandy Hook in 1852, and ran the grisC mill, the firm name being Ryan < Coger. He remained at the Hook about five years, when he bought the farm and mill in Huntingtown.
 Mir Coger was a man noted for hi. hon. esty in all his dealings, and when Eli Coger made statement, it could always be relied on. He often said That poor mans word was his capital" an axiom that ought to be the principle of action of every man in town. Mir Coger had a host of friends; indeed, it has well been said, 'He never had an enemy"
 MT Coger married Julia Ann Bronson, who died in 1878. He is survived by one son, H. B, Coger. A daughter, Miss El- ten Coger, died in 1868 at the age of 24. Mr Coger is also survived by a half brother, John Roswell of Southbury.
 The funeral was largely attended on Wednesday from his late home in Hunt ingtoWn, Rev James Taylor officiating. The pail bearers were Edward Ives, Hen- y Botsford, Wheeler Ward and Philo Dimon.

"An entertainment of very high or der of merit" Appreciated and CT joyed hy every one present" "The singing was carried with life and enthusiasm" !"

From the indications all about we should say that all Newtown was going, with a part of Stepney, portion If Bedding and most of Monroe.
