TEN NEW coRPoRAToRs.
Elected Friday at Adjourned Annual Meeting Of Savings Bank-Depos- itors Pleased and Encouraqed

A step toward the solution of the Putnam Savings banks troubles was taken at the adjourned annual meeting Of the corporators Friday afternoon. when ten men were elected corpor- ators of the institution in addition to the r who have comprised the list for some time past. This action is in accordance with one of the sugges- tions made recently by the bank com missioners in a letter addressed to the officials of the bank, which letter was discussed at a recent meeting of the trustees.
 Those elected Friday, when 15 of the + corporators were present at the meeting were Edward Mullan, Lebbeus E. Smith, Chester E. Child, Byron D. Bugbee, E. B. Kent, E. M. Wheaton, George E. Brosseau. Mel anchton Riddick, Woodstock: John Ash, Pomfret: John G. Johnson. No further action than the election of the new corporators was taken at the meeting, which was adjourned until Monday, August IT, this adjournment, 1t is understood, to enable the newly elected corporators to quality as such that they may take part eventually in the election of trustees for the en- suing year
 All of the new corporators, except as indicated. are prominent residents of Putnam and the list at once inspires ! the utmost confidence and respect. ! The hope was expressed after the meeting that every one of them will qualify, for. as one connected with the bank stated the case. they form a group of successful business men and their participation in the banks af- fairs as corporators would at once insure the institution the counsel and support that will be almost invalu- able in reestablishing the standing of l the bank, which has always been re- 4 garded as one of the strongest in this section of the state

Obituary W. J. Weir.

Wesley John Weir was born in the
town of North Lancaster, October the
9Th, 1850, and departed this life
Thursday, May Il, 1914, at the
age of sixty three years, seven
months and six days. His life was
spent amid the scenes, surroundings
and acquaintance of his boyhood, ex-
cept the years from 1905 to 1912,
during this period residing at Henry
eta, Oklahoma.
He was united in marriage to Miss
Lucy DiVall of this city April the
first 1880. Three children came to
this happy union, Mrs. Name
Philips, of Lancaster, one son Fred
of Tulsa, Oklahoma and Mrs. Grace
Embree of Henryetta, Oklahoma.
These and the beloved wife are now
left to mourn this Irreparable loss,
also one brother, Allison Weir of
Montfort, two sisters, Mrs. VIM.
DiVall, of Montfort, Wis, and Mrs.
P. B. Neff, of Bloomington, Nebraska.
We quote in part the words of
George R. Hall of the Free Lance at
Henryetta, Oklahoma, "W. j. Weir
lived in Henryetta for several years
and was one of the best men the
writer ever had the pleasure of know
ing; his friends were counted by the
score and the announcement of his
death will be sad message to them
all. Peace, to the ashes of this
good man.
Peace, mot dead but sleeping, ,"
This creed that of believing in the
Immortality of the soul, his life of
that christianity upon which nations
are founded, in the fullest sense of
the term, "a brother" to all humanity,
occupying an enviable place in the
hearts of men when living, a sacred
memory to all since his demise. A
life of patient labor and usefulness,
heart and mind filled always with a
sense of duty to his loved ones, for
bearance with worldly matters in
times of perplexity, charity for all i.
Of such character and spirit was
the life of our friend and brother
Coincidence and sympathy Of all who
knew this noble life goes to his loved
ones in this their hour of trial and
bereavement; this was beautifully ex
pressed by tie two fraternal orders,
the |. O. O. F. and M. w. A. of
which he was member, escorting
the cortege to Hillside Cemetery.
Ever and always will cling the
memory. Emulation of such lives as
this bring US closer to that condition
desired by him who gave his life that
we might be saved. Rest in peace.
"Not dead but sleeping. Again we
say "peace, memory of such lives
endureth always.
