At a special meeting of the vestry
and wardens of st. johns church.
Thursday evening, the resignation of
DIR. T.. w. Colloque, the rector of ST
John Episcopal church, was accented
by a quorum OF the vestry. He ex-
poets to accept a call at Lake Moheg-
an, New York, where he and his wife
will go about the first of November.
DR.. e. w. Colloque came to Sewaren
from Oxford, New York, about the
first of December, 1908. For a while
Mr.. and Mrs. Colloque lived on West
enu Later they bought a little
home of their own on Cliff road,
which he had partly rebuilt, making
1t much more attractive and comfort
able. AS he was very fond of gar
dens and flowers he converted a large
part of his back yard into a big gar
den, which he filled with many kinds
of plants. During the summer
months each year, much of his time
was spent with his flowers. He had
his own boat house and dock in front
of his house, where for a while his
son Orrich kept his little sailing
Yacht. Now he has a light skiff when
he wants to go out on the water for
pleasure.
Less than two years ago their only
son was married here in Sewaren, in
st. Johns church. After a bridal
breakfast at the home of their par
ents the young bride and groom went
to New York, where they lived for
some time. Later they moved west.
The early part Of this summer Mr..
and Mrs. Orrich C~olloque came east
again and have been living with their
parents on Cliff road. When DR.. and
Mrs. e. w. Colloque go to Lake Mo-
hogan, Mr.. and Mrs. Orrich Colloque
expect to stay here in Sewaren. Mr..
and Mrs. e. w. Cclloque expect to
spend a short time each year here
in their home on Cliff road.
