age This nob'e and promising young man was
born in Fayette Co., Ia. and with his parents
took an honorable part in the Burbank Mem

gether with his parents and a brother, are left
to sustain, as best they may, their unspeakable
loss. AS a young business man In the commun-

city treasurer of Philadelphia. July 2,
1891, Bardsley was sentenced to fifteen
years in the eastern penitentiary for
Incorporating over 100000 Of city
and State moneys while in his official
position. Agitation for Bardsley's par
don has oeen going on for considera.
BILE time, at the instigation of prominent
citizens, who believed that Bardsley was
more sinned against than SHINING. The
principal plea presented in favor of the
pardon was the prisoners failing health.
There was abundant medical testimony
brought before the board of pardons to
prove that he is practically in a state of
collapse from paralysis and that il con-
tinued in confinement he could live but
a brief time. The board recommended
the granting of the pardon about two
weeks ago.

Enclosed find my resignation as pres

on your receipt Of this. The origin of
this association and its purpose was to
advocate and by all proper methods pro-

be equally interested to effect the legis-

your office DO not meet my approval, and
