resulted in the appearance of great numbers of stone

ticularly so when we take into account the massive
gateways which have usually been provided in such
connection. There is no doubt, however, that such
walls add much in the estimation of most per-
sons, to the beauty of our rural landscapes. In
deed, 1t is the walls and hedges more than any
thing else which cause eturned travellers to grow
enthusiastic over rural England.

The board of directors of the Public
Service Corporation this afternoon
adopted the following minute
Mr.. Dryden. whose active mind was
ever alert for the development of his
city and State, vas one Of the original
organizers of this corporation. He
clearly foresaw the development of the
State which would follow tho concen-
tration of the major portion Of It's pub
lie utilities In one organization having
proper financial backing. He believed
that no such results could be realized
from their continued operations as
separate entities, many of them with
out the necessary for their
proper development. From this position
he never swerved.
He had teen a director and large
s%tockholder of corporation from the
date of its organization to the day of
his death. He was regular in his at
tendance at the meetings of the board.
and gave freely of his time to confer
ences with the officers of the corpora
ton, apart from the board meetings.
HIS courtesy was unfaili"g, his judg-
ment was ripe and conservative. his
was the best that New Jersey
could afford. His death Is the tenth
among those who have at enc time or
another peer directors of the corpora
ton since its formation, eight and one
half years ago
MAY those who are left to carry on

learned with deepest and most pro-
found sorrow of the sudden death of
Hon. John Fairfield Dryden. who has
been an active and very highly
esteemed director since the organiza-
ton of the bank, to which his very
valuable services have always been
freely given.
Most fortunate for the city of New
ark was the day when he chose to
make 1t his home and the centre of his
Network. Influenced by the expansion
of his great plans, the city has become
a strong financial centre, and the
future results to be produced from the
foundations hat he has aid will be
difficult 20 compute.
From the first he showed his great
faith in the future of Newark, and
with unremitting zeal led in extending
he name. the fame Of this city,
throughout the land.
In the many idl St anu lilipOt TAM
Institutions with which he was con-
nected in this and other cities his
consumnla g ability, ripe business judg-
ment and financial genius made his
name a tower of strength.
"From a modest beginning with a
new and untried enterprise, after sur
mounting serious obstacles, he has
with signal ability, unfailing energy
and sublime courage, conducted his In
stitution to a magnificent success
which, while carrying blessings to
thousands of homes, has been placed
among the great and permanent or
CARNATIONS of the world for the good
of humanity.
His wonderfully constructive mind,
forceful ability and devoted patriotism
accomplished most important results
fer his country at the national capital,
influencing, among other questions. VI

His power of great leadership was
shown also in his warm friendship for
and sympathetic interest with the

who We're greatly attached to him, and
