Testimonials of Esteem.-Bond V

Thomas and his wife, who is remembered
in St. Johnsbury as Miss Edith Carpen-
ter, sailed last Saturday Tor year in
Europe. Before their departure Mr..
Thomas received a large silver loving
cup inscribed as follows: ITO B. V.
Thomas, superintendent of Whitall,
Tatum & Co.'S Glass Works, Millvlle,
N. !. From clerks and heads OF depart
ments, July Z, 1897 as token of our
esteem and Appreciation"
But something which Mr.. Thomas
valued still more was given him by the
five local branches of the Glass Workers
Union, which include all the men in the
mills. This was set of resolutions from
which we quote the more important pas
sages:
During the ten years that Mr.. Thomas
has been associated with the Millville
Works the members Of this union have
entertained for him feelings not only OF
the deepest regard, but OF entire conf
dence and truth. He has been
uniformly courteous and kind, without
forgetting the dignity of his position, nor
wearing an air of authority. Whether
in business or social relations he has
been uniformly the same ideal gentleman
His sympathy with us in our struggles
has created bond between us that, as
far as we are concerned, absence and dis
tance will not sunder.
As citizen Mr.. Thomas has reflected
honor on our community, and his inf1u
ence has been exerted on the moral sid'
OF all municipal questions. Al
vice president of the State Board of Edu
cation he occupies a most honorable
position in the state, and is most highl.
esteemed by his colleagues, from whom
he has won the highest eucomiums.
| We part with Or. Thomas with exceed
: ing regret. We would keep him if W
5 could. We wish him and his wife health
, pleasure and profit in the journe
} they are about to take, and long an
1 successful life after their return. W
shall hold them both in fond and pleas
ant memory. and shall watch the
e future with an interest and pride bego
! ten by the happy associations of tt
t past"
