JESSE F. MILLSPAUGH.

Jesse Fonda Millspaugh was born at Montgomery, Orange County, N. Y. March 19, 1920, and died at Falls Vil- lage, Conn. Tuesday evening Nov. 1st, 1898, at o'clock.
 At the age of 19 MT Millspsugh An- ished his apprenticeship as tanner and currier in New York city, and then went to Newburn, North Carolina, where he had charge of tannery for two years. The next few years was spent in Win sted, Conn. and New Boston, Mass. in the same line of business. h 1851 he came to the town of Canaan, and the year following he built his residence at Falls Village, where he lived until the time of his demise, with the excep- tion of five years spent in Russell, Mass. |. in the E. B. Hull Co.'S tanning estab- lishment. and few years in Winsted, Conn as manager of the Hurlbut Iron Go.
 Previous to his illness twelve year 8 ago, when he was stricken with paraly- sis, his life had been busy, active one. He served his town in the capacity of selectman, was director in the Nation al Iron Bank for several years and also a director in the Falls Village Savings Bank for some nine years when he WIS elected vice e-president of that institution which office he held four years. He was also postmaster at that place for six teen or more years. He represented in the General Assembly in 1855 what are now the towns of North Canaan and Ca naan but then were the one town of Canaan. Although an invalid for so many years he read much and kept well posted on the topics of the day.
 MT Millspaugh was married in 1S44 to Miss Emily Shores of Winsted with whom he lived happily until she was called away from earth August 20, 1886, which was a very deep attiictlon to him and his children, also to this whole community. To further add to his aff1ictions, Dellie, wife of W. Irving Sparks, died June l, 1890.
 Mir Millspaugh is survived by one brother, James H Millspaugh of New Haven, Conn. and two daughters, Mrs Henry Hanchett of East Orange, N. J. who has been able to minister to the comforts of her father at various times, and Miss Stella Millspaugh who has been his constant companion bringing to him joy and sunshine, and attending to his every want cheerfully as only a faithful daughter can.
 The funeral was from his late resi- dence Friday afternoon at 8 o'clock and was largely attended by relatives and friends from New Haven, New Jersey, Pittsfield, Winsted and other places to pay their respects to the departed It was at the close of a beautiful Autumnal day, under clear sky, that we laid him to rest by the side of his beloved com panion in Grassy Hill cemetery. The Rev J. W. Bohlman of the NJ E. church officiated and drew from passages of scripture in the Psalms and Isaiah much comfort and consolation to the beresved. The floral offerings were numerous and beautiful.

It was a day long to be remembered in memor- ies of those whe attended 1t, and was held probably the largest and most enthus. iastic rally that our Union has ever had in the ten years that have passed since its formation. From early morning the endeavorers and their many friends came streaming in by focks, some com ing by train and the outside societies by teams until at noon there were about POO people gathered iu the chapel where the services were being conduct ed. The meeting opened by q song service led by our vice president, E. Franklin Gillette of Sharon after which prayer followed. The report ofthe last meeting was read and accepted and was followed by paper on "Our Jun iors, their opportunity" by Miss Lucy Wickwire of Falls Village. Various other topics were taken by different persons till the noon hour arrived when the endeavorers were conducted to an room and a sumptous repast placed before them. The afternoon session was an interesting one. Rev E. 0. Dyer of Sharon speaking on the "Tenth Le- zion" and Miss Mary Hopson of Kent on 1.-The Quiet Hour" After a short consecration service the meeting was adjourned. The meeting was an inter esting one throughout and the keenest interest was taken by everyone present. H. H. Spooner of Kent, our president, presented his resignation to the Union, owing to the fact that he hes been elected the state president, and Rev W. c. Ferris of this place was elected to fill the office. The banner was award ed to the South Canaan Juniors, thelr percentage of attendance being 80 per cent.
