undoubtedly one of the ragged

following an operation for ap-

of deepest sympathy to the
bereaved wife, children and
other relatives of the departed

In this dark hour of their life

them that light from the tomb
which has been disseminated
by the great Savior of mankind
whose death and resurrection
has become the hope and sup
port of all men who havo re-
garded the same with apprecia-

newspaper man of more than
ordinary ability, and withal he
was busy man. always active
and alert in every good move

passing from the state of ac-
ton of such a man should leave
a wide gap in the ranks of So
ciety. citizenship and the press
that will be slow in clio sing

not be gainsaid. He had fought
a good fight and the world il
