night at his home in Seymour. He
filled many prominent positions, III
addition to commanding large and
lucrative law practice, as the sketch
of his life indicates. He was an enter

failed to hold the closest attention of
his audience whether on the political
platform or pleading case before
a jury. His flow of language was re-

His death will be regretted by his

The withdrawal of Spain of her
request for the recall of Consul gen

by President Mckinley, plainly
shows that she is not anxious fol

had right, from legal point OF
view, to make such request if Gen
eral Lee was displeasing to her. The
request under ordinary circumstances
would not have been thought much
of, but coming as it did, at this time
