The death of Representative For

bas Hospital. will .be shock 10 his
host of friends, and will be deeply re-
GREETED by the people of the State. AL
though his illness, which necessitated
hospital treatment. swas thus shown
to be of a serious nature, there was no
general anticipation that it would ter
inmate fatally. The late Congress
man from the Third Maine District
was comparatively a young man, be-
ing but 81 years of age. That he
should be thus cut off in his prime
and on the threshold of a wider career,
adds to the poignancy of his death.
Nevertheless Forrest Goodwin had
lived long. enough to prove his quality
and to make his mark in his native
State as a man, as a lawyer, and
leader in his party in Maine politics.
To the study and practice of the law
Mr.. Goodwin devoted his whole ener-
gies for many years and with eminent
success winning place among the
foremost members of the Maine bar.
So great. indeed. was his assiduity in
his profession, that the undermining or
his health is attributed mainly to that
cause. Yet the law did not wholly ap-
sorb Mr.. Goodwin's energies ana time.
Besides serving as postmaster at
Skowhegan early in his career, from
1892 to 1896, he became interested IN
state politics, and was elected mem-
her Of the Maine House. and subse-
uuently of the Senate, being, FOR one
term president of that body. Last year
he entered the national field OF poli-
ties as a candidate for Congress from
| the Third District, winning in the June
primaries over Hon. Hannibal H.
Hamlinz of Ellsworth, and being eject
ed at the general election In the NO
vember$ elections followings Inat

Republican, and the Republican party

i gresham was man of many me
