Arthur Bedell. He also worked for
Cavauaugh Bros. of Manchester for some
twelve years. Mr.. Simon was distinctly
horseman. Few there were whose judg
ment on the points OF horse was as per-
feet as his. On February 15, 1860, Mr..
Simon married Miss Rose Boyce of Carroll.
No children were born of this union. Mr..
Simon was an honorable man. His integ-
rity was never questioned. He was jovial,
pleasant to meet, and a staunch friend
the sort of man it's doubly hard to lose.
Rev. FIR. Lessard spoke in part as follows:
How impressive in its eloquence of silence
is this scene, and how satutary in its
lessons. Behold before you today the re-
mains of an honest citizen. The loss is
great to loving wife, bereaved mother,
and fellow brothers. From this funeral
pulpit can say that, although dead, he
yet speaketh in the eloquence of good
example, he whose genial disposition made
death, so sudden, have caused true ex-
preston and bountiful testimonials OF
sympathy. And you who are not
aggregated to the Catholic fold, you who
are of those concerning whom Christ said,
"And other sheep have that are not of
this fold" you appreciate the value OF this
mans good character and are here today
to evince that appreciation. On such an
occasion what can I say? 1t is impossible
to tran slate into words the thoughts and
emotions OF the soul. Let us reason our
grief and, great as it may be, surely it can
not be compared with that of this mans
mother. How much woman and par
ticularly mother can suffer. May our
heartfelt sympathy be extended to her and
may his soul rest in peace.'".
