An Unnatural Death.
1t was an unnatural death that cut
George L. Lilley off in the very prime
of a vigorous manhood and just as he
was entering into the enjoyment of
his greatest achievement. Governor
Lilley vas honest and in all his Off
cial career he stood for the best in
terests of the people. 1t was his ma
ture to correct wrongs if within his
power. and if he made a mistake, it
was in r-estimating his power to
cope with the more powerful influences
which he believed We're filching un-
earned millions from the treasury of
the people at Washington. He failed
of vindication because it was only in
the hands of his enemies that the
power rested TO grant it, but the plain
people of this state and the nation be-
lieyed in him, and that there was am
pie grounds to warrant the effort he
made.-Willimantic Journal
