ance Proctor became one of the
model industrial towns of the coun-
try. In Proctor and the Vermont
Marble Company Fletcher d. Proct-
or leaves his greatest monument.
Mr.. Proctor was united in mar
rage with Minnie E. Robinson Of
Westford and to them two children,
Emily and Mortimer Robinson were
born. Mrs. Proctor and the children
survive Mr.. Proctor.
Mr.. Proctor has always been well
honored in a political way. For
many years he was superintendent
of his town. He was actively as
Guard rising to the grade of first
lieutenant when he was appointed
to a position on the staff of Col.
Greenleaf. He was secretary of civ
il and military affairs under Gov.
Ormsbee and was elected town rep
resentative from Proctor in 1890. In
1892 he was elected senator from
Rutland county and was one of the
influential members of these bodies.
In 1900 Proctor again elected him
representative by a unanimous vote
and he was elected speaker of the
house of representatives, position
which he filled with such ability
that his friends urged him to be-
come candidate for governor in the
campaign of 1892. He did not want
to do so at that time but finally con-
sented after many of his friends
had pledged their support to other
candidates and Mr.. Mccullough was
nominated.
In 1906 he consented to serve as
candidate and had one of the most
vigorous fights against Percy Glenn
ent who ran on the democratic-in-
dependent ticket but Mr.. Proctor
was elected by majority. AS gov
ernor Mr.. Proctor gave the state
one of the most practical and sue
cessful administrations it ever had
and he left the Office with the re-
spect and esteem. of all Vermonters
regardless of party. Since his re-
tirement to public life he has APP
piled himself closely to the i'm
mense business of the company and
his other business connections. He
was a director of the Rutland rail-
road, of the New England Telephone
company and of the Agricultural
school at Lyndon.

Governor Proctor's administra-
ton was one of the most notable of
business-like administrations in re-
cent years. With his gubernatorial
approval and to very large extent
through his personal initiative and
influence some most progressive leg
islation was written into the statu-
tes, and important measures such
as the improved highway law, rail-
road commission law, grade cross
ing law, railroad rate law, the skill
ed supervision of schools law, and
the weekly payment law were pass
ed.
The funeral was held at Proctor
Friday afternoon at $50 o'clock at
the Union church, theA Rev. J. w.

the former governor at Amherst col

the body of the late Senator Red

lies.
The exercises at the church were
of very simple nature. Flowers in
profusion were in evidence. The
trains brought representative men
from all over the state Union
church was far too small to accom-
modate all those who wished to at
tend. A delegation of lawyers from
the Rutland county court, which
had taken a recess out of respect to
Mr.. Proctor, were present The
works of the Vermont Marble Co.,
were closed and several hundred
employees of the company, accom-
panied the funeral party from the

of Redf1eld anu Emily Dutton Proct-

management of the company it pur-

He developed a wonderful faculty

allowed them to purchase a home

store in which the customers shared
the profits at the end of the year.

An effort is being made to dispose
of this milk on this line to independ-
