J. E. Dwinell late of Glover.

The death of Joseph Elmer DwinelI
late of Glover. occurred on the MORN
ing of October %, after painful ILL
ness of several months from heart
trouble, as stated in our issue of last
week. He was one of the oldest, best
known citizens, whose long life had
mostly been spent in Glover, where
all his best and tenderest interests
centered. He always worked for what
he considered the best good of Glover.
Mr.. DwineH was born in Keene. N.
H., April 30. 1880. He was the Oldest
son of Joseph Hammond and Almira
(Holbrook) Dwinell and came with
his father to Glover when only two
years of age. His ancestry for six
generations past can be traced to
France upon his fathers side, and to
England on his mothers. Thus he
possessed to a marked degree the
ideality of Frenchman, combined
with the stern pride and energy of an
Englishman. His grandfathers on both
sides were soldiers of the Revolution
ary war. He received his education
in the common and high schools of the
town, never having the advantages for
study and culture that came later to
his children. In 1853 he, in company
with his brother, Charles H. Dwinell,
succeeded their father in business un-
der the firm name of j. E. & C. H.
Dwinell. manufacturers and dealers
in furniture of all kinds, as we'll as

Glover, Barton, Orleans and Green's

He has filled many Offices of trust in
Glover and the county with ability
and conscientious integrity, often sue
ceeding where others failed to accom-
plish. He was for several years con-
