Nv acquaintance with him dates back
to boyhood days and that acquaintance
npened into mature friendship al
wears increased. / knew George A
Dickey we'll, / have relied on his in
tegrity and ability many times ano
never was deceived. | watched hin
with great interest as Bradford's legis
latiye member and as a friend an
proud of his career. His last public
work as a representative citizen is
fitting monument to his memory. He
had many warm friends in Newbury,
the town which gave him birth, his
acquaintance was not local, he had a
large circle of friends throughout the
state, all sincerely mourn his loss. 1t
seems strange enough that of the leg
islature of 1898 the tive first called to
cross over to the Greater General As
sembly should be Senator Hit OF
Brattleboro and Representative Dick
ey of Bradford, both young men in
full health, both lawyers and leading
members, both with large following
of friends and admirers. Many words
of sympathy are expressed on every
hand for the household of Geo. A.
Dickey.
