DEATH OF NATHAN II. SANFORD.

An old and Highly Esteemed New Haven
 Resident-A Brother of Dr. Leonard J.
 Sanford and of the Late Judge F. I. San
 ford.
 Nathan H. Sanford, one of the best known citizens and retired business men of the city, was found dead in his bed in his apartment at the New Ha- ven house about o'clock yesterday af- ternoon His death was due to com plication of diseases. He had been In feeble health for some time, though not, 1t was thought, dangerously i'll, and had been able to be about the ho- tel and to take short walks and attend to his business interests in quiet way up to the last day of his life.
 MT. Sanford retired at his usual hour on Sunday evening as we'll as usual. Yesterday morning he did not appear at the breakfast table, but nothing was thought of the circumstance, as he had not infrequently remained in his room late. On his non-appearance at dinner it was thought that he might be ill and an attendant was sent to Mr. Sanford s room. No answer was heard in re- sponse to the knock. The door was then opened and MT Sanford's body was found in the bed. From the ex- animation it was seen that he had been dead several hours
 MT. Sanford was brother to the late Judge E. l. Sanford and Dr. l.. J. San- ford, both of this city. He was con- nected with the Beckley lumber firm of Water street in 1870 and for several years following. He then sold out his from active business.
 He kept an office in the Benedict building and was clerk and treasurer of the New Haven City Burial associ- ation for the past eight years, resign ing at the associations last annual meeting held week or two ago. He had also for years occupied the posi- tion of treasurer of the Center Church society. MT Sanford resided at the New Haven house for the past thirty years
 pr. L. c. Sanford was called from the bedside of his dying father, Dr. l.. J. Sanford, to the New Haven ho1sse, where he was made acquainted with the death of his uncle, and was deeply moved and almost overcome by the sad occurrence.
 Nathan H. Sanford was one of our old and most estimable New Haven family, and enjoyed to high degree the confidence and esteem of his fellow citizens. He was a gentleman of re- finement, interested in the church with which he had so long been identified, and by nature, and especially so in his later years, mingled but little in the activities of social or business life. He was withal gentleman, most affable and kindly and ever considerate of the comfort and welfare of others; and leaves a memory dear to those whc best knew his true worth of character The death of his brother, the late B. l. Sanford, judge of the superior and su- preme courts of this state for many years, removed a citizen of great use- fulness and integrity of character, a citizen and lawgiver of blameless life, a gentleman whose death the public mourned. The death of Judge Sanford was & blow which long deeply affected Nathan and it is thought that his death was hastened by the critical illness of his brother Dr. Sanford, and the knowledge that the illness of the lat ter would in all probability terminate fatally.

collapse Of the Argentine Republic scheme,
which happened in 1890 and that il was
