In the course of business it was my
pleasure to become acquainted with
David A. Wells, who, as an inventor,
editor and political economist, had an
international reputation. He seemed
to be no mans darling, but he could
bridge chasms and be compenionable
with any man he took a fancy to. He
was not SO distant or reserved as he
seemed to be to common people. He
could be as familiar as a boy and as
confidential as a woman whenever the
spirit moved him so to be. DO I al
ways speak to you when I meet you
in the street?' he asked me one day.
and ] replied: 81 do not know / do

And there was John r. Adams, a
gentleman of the old school, who was
neat dresser and a good converse
tionalist. His careful enunciation was
not the least of his particularities. I
do not know how l became personally
acquainted with him. He spent con-
siderable of his leisure time in the
Otis library and he always spoke to
me and on several occasions engaged
me in conversation. He was a church
man of broad views; he was whole
man upon all occasions. He had read
SWedenborg's works and liked his rev.
elations-his dreams-of future spirit-
ual existence. He told me that he
did not believe death ended all. and
contded to me that he had an illunnin-
ed hope which would not fade away.
He was rather reserved-he could not
be common. 1t was a pleasure to meet
him, and | think Of him as the spick-
span man of his generation.

The late John =. Slater did not re-
ceive every one with favor and was
rather distinguished for his reserve
as well as for the distinction of his
family in the manufacture Of cotton. He
was a strong believer in temperance,
and gave constant support to temper
ance reform. / made his acquaintance
in a singular way, about the time that
he gave a million for the education
of the colored people OF the south. We
were both on a Thames river steam
boat, taking a little outing, and after
we reached Stonington on the way to
Watch Hill he approached me and in

ceived his support, hei expressed his
pleasure at having moi me, and intro

them both to be most agreeable and
companionable. He was gentleman

Those who knew the Hon. John T.

In politics he was a strategist of a high

support; and that paper of a few
months of life made him the candidate
and the Hon. Henry G. Ruggles consul
to Barcelona, two capable men who
honored the positions and made last

all things political to him, and served
his district the longest of any man.
He had greater knowledge of men and
things in Norwich, and could tell more
entertaining anecdotes than any man
Of his day.
