RECENT DEATHS.
Bates.


News was received here Saturday
morning of the death at his home in
Berkeley, Cal, of Judge Henry {. Bates
for nearly 80 years one of ST. Johnsbury s
most distinguished public citizens. No
particulars have been received OF his Ill
ness, though it will be recalled that
when he crossed the continent on his
eastward trip last summer he was great
" affected by the high altitude on the
transcontinental journey and suffered
greatly at the time.
Henry Clay Bates was born in Derby,
VT, Jan. 20, 1843, and educated at the
public schools of his native town. When
the civil war broke out he enlisted in the
Fourth Massachusetts Heavy Artillery,
serving his country for year and much
of the time guarding the nations capital
Returning to Vermont he began the
study oflaw at Newport in the office of
Edwards & Dickerman, and was later
admitted to practice in the Essex county
bar. For short time he practiced law
in the towns of Concord and Guildhall
and came to St. Johnsbury in 1873. He
formed a partnership soon afterwards
with Elisha May which continued p

Thanks from FIR. Marceau.

The Rev. L. Marceau hereby wishes to
offer his sincere thanks to the Reverend
members of the clergy of the diocese, to
the Rt.-Rev. Paul Larocque, Bishop of
Sherbrooke and in particular to each
member of the clergy from other dioceses.
He would also offer his deep gratitude to
the different societies of both churches,
to their organizers, to the members of
the choir and to those in charge of the
funeral, to the citizens of St. Johnsbury,
both Catholic and Protestant, for the
profound respect shown to the memory
of the regretted Rev. ]. A. Boissonnault,
pastor of Notre Dame des VICTORIES. The
fraternal rivality existing on this solemn
occasion gave to the funeral of the re-
gretted pastor grandeur which respect
and affection alone could produce.

No. + in the Lead.

In the bowling tournament now on
between Hose Companies No. and No.
4, the Summerville fire laddies have a
comfortable lead of 444 pins. This fact
is rather encouraging from No. 6stand-
point, but it must be remembered that
the game is young yet and it is alto
gether too early to venture an opinion
as to who will eat and who will pay for
it. The losers are to banquet the win
ners and the tournament will be decided
by two rounds of three matches each.
The companies are divided into three
teams OF four men. The first match was
played Thursday night and No. led
their opponents 1916 to 1859. In the
second match played Saturday they in.
creased their lead by 2S7, the team scores
being 1929 and 1242. For harmonv's
sake the individual scores are not pub
lished,

years and the firm of Bates & May be-
came one of the leading law firms in
northeastern Vermont, their practice in
Guiding not only Caledonia but all the
adjoining counties. MIR. Bates excelled
as trial lawyer and his eloquent pleas
before the juries in important cases are
wildly recalled by many.
Judge Bates political career was al
most continuous from the time he was
first elected states attorney of this
county in 1880 until the retirement from
the Philippine judiciary about two years
ago. He was twice elected states attor-
ney, first in 1880 and again in 1892, He
was one of the two senators from this
county in the Legislature of 1886 and
was reelected to the same Office in the
Legislature of 1888. He served on inn
portant committees at both of those
sessions and was honored by being
chosen president pro tenn of that body.
In 1896 he was elected representative
| from this town and was The recognized
leader of the House at that session. Two
years later he was elected lieutenant
governor of the state, serving with Gov.
E. c. Smith of St. Adams. He was an
effective campaign speaker and always
in demand as a Memorial day orator
He was frequently called upon to to pre-
side at political gatherings and was one
of the delegates to the national conven-
ton that nominated Mckinley and
Roosevelt. In the spring of 1901 Pres
ident Mckinley appointed him one OF the
Judges of the court of the first instance
in the Philippines and for about six
years he was stationed at Iloilo in the
island of Panay. At considerable dis
tance from Manila and on an island
which was not in the beaten track of
American residents or tourists Judge
Bates soon became the first citizen of
that great island and very popular with
the Filipinos They liked his kindly and
upright dispensation of justice and his
work rerited the praise of the Washing
ton government. In September, 1907,
Judge Bates resigned this position and
returned to this country, making his
home in California though he has twice
since visited his many Vermont friends.
Judge Bates was an active member of
Chamberlin Post, No. 1, 6. A. R., and
one of its past commanders. He was
also one of the founders and former
president of the Mystic Club.
On March 10, 1866, he married Laura
E. Jenness of Morgan, who survives him.
He Also leaves one son, ]. Dickerman, OF
t Topeka, Kan, and an adopted daughter,
Adelaide Bates, Both Mrs. Bates and
the daughter accompanied him to the
Philippines, returning with him to
California in 1907,
Judge Bates was a most genial and
kindly man who made lot of friends in
his long public career and who easily
, kept them. Fond of society he was al
ways welcome guest at any function
or in the family circle, and there are
/ many in St. Johnsbury and elsewhere
who will greatly miss him and cherish
his memory

Father BOiSsOnnault'S Successor.

1t will probably be several months
before another priest is appointed to
have charge of Notre Dame church. A
few DAYS after the death of Rev. J. A.
Boissonnault, six priests were notified
that if they desire they may become
candidate for the position. AS this
priest is an irremovable rector, candi-
dates must be examined by an ecclesiasti-
cal board before an appointment can
be made, and none of this business can
be transacted until a new bishop has
been appointed by the Pope. The
diocese is hoping that successor to
Bishop Michaud will be named at Easter
but no one knows. In the meantime
Mgr. ]. NJ. Cloarec OF Burlington, ad.
ministrator of the diocese, has appointed
Rev. l.. Marceau to have charge of Notre
Dame parish.

tendent OF the Carroll street Grammar

For thirtv-five years he has been with
us and of us-a sturdy citizen and faith
hl priest. The common people OF all
religious creeds called him Father" and
it was right that they should do so. He
was indeed a Father" in every respect;
for he always stood for the noble and the
true The men and women of his church
loved him, but not always with the love
that "casteth out fear" He was stern
man but always just. When a member
of his church did wrong, and Fr. Bots
sonnault learned the fact, this member
had to make amends. This was shown
in the case of the man who found the
money at the fire at St. Johnsbury Cen
ter many years ago. As true father
he stood for good order in this town.
When it came to his ears. as a citizen,
that a parishoner of his was violating
the laws of the state, he at once informed
the proper authorities and put an end to
such violation.
He stood for the cause of temperance
on every and all occasions. To the
great credit of his church and its priests,
it may be truthfully said that their in
nuenCe mas DeeH on the Sluc VI sODIlSly'
He stood for patriotism. On every oc-
casion of patriotic gatherings FIR. Bots
sonnault lent his aid, if not his presence.
When President Harrison visited this
town, FIR Boissonnault marched with
the rest of us and greatly aided in max
ing that visit a pleasant one.
He stood for righteousness. Whatever
was mean or sordid he despised. No
man ever knew FIR. Boissonnault to up
hold what he believed to be wrong. He
held that Righteousness
exalteth nation and that sin is re-
proach to any people
He stood firmly for the Catholic faith.
He entertained his own views about GER
tain matters, with which his Protestant
friends did not agree; but he was always
lair minded and never sought or encour-
aged dispute.
St. Johnsbury honored this good priest
and he honored the town. We buried
1ne of our best citizens last Thursday.

alike q zeal for their work. He went
from here to Holden, Mass, where he
was superintendent eight years and had
but recently taken up the work in the
Cane district. Mr.. Jones is survived by
a widow, who is most pleasantly re-
menbered in this town and who was
true helper to her husband in his chosen
profession. Funeral services were held
in the Congregational church in Sand
wich on Sunday, March Z the edihce
being filled with friends. His pastor,
Rev. William Robertson, conducted the
service and paid a worthy and impress
sive tribute to Mr.. Jones. The following
day the body was taken to Mt. Auburn
for cremation.

"A good name is rather to be chosen
than great riches" AS a newcomer to
St. Tohnsbury, it did not take me long
to discover that Father Bossonnault
had the great treasure of good name.
The unusually pleasant relations existing
in this village between the Catholics
and non-Catholics were ascribed in no
small measure to him; and his work in
promoting total abstinence among his
people, and in strengthening the no.
license vote of recent years, has been
widely recognized and honored. In my
occasional calls upon him always
found him the courteous christian gen
tleman, ready for any cooperation that
was feasible. The other churches of our
town have taken unfeigned satisfaction
in the prosperity of his parish, and in the
firm and benignant shepherding he gave
his flock. In these days of short pas
torates, a service of 35 years in one
community is notable, and its cumula-
tive power is revealed not only in the
group of buildings he has erected, but
also and more significantly in the love
and veneration accorded him by his
people. He has been accepted by us all
as a fine representative of the best ideals
of his church. and in this time of his
passing we have all been glad to put
aside differences of creed and to unite
heartily in the aifectionate praise given
to this life of true and simple goodness.
