Memphremsgog district was formed. Col
lector MaIsur continued him in office,
where he remained until his death-13
years and four months continuous service.
He died on the morning of August l,
having, within four days, rounded out Sc
years. His death was the first break in
united, happy family; he leaves a widow
and four children-van A, who resides In
Concord, n. H.; William, in Loomis, CAL.
Jessie at West Burke and Georgia, the
youngest, at home. All were at home
during the last weeks of his life. During
the past winter he had a severe attack of
grip, very near pneumonia. He recovered
In some measure and returned to his work,
but with his heart in bad condition.
Later, various complications ensued; he
was compelled to give up active work, and
while hope of recovery still remained, the
end came somewhat suddenly, but peace
fully. Funeral services were held On
Saturday afternoon at the Congregational
church. Rev. E. c. Flagg officiated,
assisted by Rev. A. A. Murch. large
number from Baxter Post, G. A. r., were
| associates were present in body, four OF
them acting as bearers. There were
present also large number of neighbors
| and friends to manifest their sympathy
for the family and their genuine respect
for the departed. The body was taken on
! the four O'Clock train to Corinth, where
burial took place on Sunday. No better
or more fitting words could be used In
portraying such life than those used by
| DIR. Flagg as the basis of his closing re.
marks-"He was good man." This
sketch has not been written in undue
praise or fulsome eulogy, but as slight
tribute of appreciation by one who knew
him well. The writer first became &C.
| quainted with our friend during tn
session of the legislature in 1872. TIL,
acquaintance thus pleasantly begun ha
been continued and, during the past ten
years in almost daily association, ha
ripened into strong friendship. Hi
removal becomes, indeed, great persona
loss.
