IN MEMORIAM.

Edward w. Higgins, son of Levi and
Jerusha Higgins, who died at Lamoine,
March Y, was born at Otis April 10, 1881.
He was one of a family of thirteen chill
dren, of whom five are living. When he
WIS six years of age his parents moved to
Trenton, and there he made his home for
forty years. Twenty years ago lie be-
came resident of Lamoine.
He began to follow the sea at the age OF
eighteen, and when only twenty-five be-
came master mariner. He continued to
sail i'll that capacity until the spring OF
1886, when he retired from sea- faring
life.
Tue last ten years of his life were
qu1etty spent at his home III Lamoine,
With tne exception of a few months alb
sence. Owing to III health, he did not
again engage Ill active business. But
during his period he served four years as
postmaster, to the general satisfaction of
the patrons of the office. During 1896 he
was one of the seiectmen, and discharged
his duties faithfully and conscientiously.
Captain Higgins was married June 10,
1858, to Miss Caroline Potter, of White
field, who survives him. OF the chill
dren born to them, two are living-Miss
Phosie e. Higgins, Of Lamoine, and
James Higgins, of Minneapolis, Mimi.
He united with the Lamoine church
August, 1878. For seven years he held The
office Of church treasurer, and was re-
elected at the annual parish meeting in
January last. He was a trusty official
and will be greatly missed by the church
with which he was so long connected.
He was a member Of the Lamoine
grange. Though not one Of its charter
members, he joined soon after it was in
stituted, and retained his interest in its
work to the end. For many years Mr..
Higgins belonged to the Masonic frater-
nifty, and at the time OF his death was a
member OF Lygonia lodge Of Eilsw orth.
In his life he exemplitied the principles
Of that ancient order.
The funeral services were attended by
many relatives, friends and neighbors.
Rev. l.. M. Bosworth, who otficiated,
spoke deserved words of tribute to the
unblemished character Of the deceased.
