Death of Ex-Member of the House Frou

Death of Ex-Member of the House From
 the Town of Glastonbury.
 Hartford, July 15.-Mr. Martin T. Hol- lister of this city, who was a member of the general assembly In 1889. serv- ing from the town of Glastonbury, was buried this afternoon In the old church cemetery in that town, the funeral ser vices taking place here at No. 34 Wood bridge street at o'clock. The de- ceased passed away at 5:S0 Monday afternoon, death being caused from cancer of the stomach.
 MT. Hollister was born in Glastonbury November 26 1S47. and was educated at the Vermont Conference seminary. He enlisted in the Eleventh Connecticut February p, 1864, and was among the first to enter Richmond in 1865. He was a member of John M. Morris post of Wetherstield, and was held in high es- teem by the war veterans. He was a past master of Columbia lodge of Gias- tonbury, F. and A. M, and was es- teemed in Masonic circles not less than he was in the Grand Army. The de- ceased was for years connected with the Glastonbury ferry, and was known far and near on account of that service. His father, Martin S. Hollister, was for many years the owner of several barges plying on the Connecticut river, which he sold to the Hartford and New York Transportation company.
