 Reference Is made to the Westerly irNa lnnn nhi4ffmrU Af Lewis A. Platts, D. D., as follows: Tn
 May, 1876, at Westerly, R. l., occurred the sudden death of Rev. George F.. Tomlinson, beloved pastor of the Paw. eatuck Seventh Day Baptist church in 1 that village, and Elder Platts was called to preach the funeral sermon. During the summer following he was 1 called to the pastorate of the Pawea- I tuck church and entered upon it's dn- | ties the first of October following. While meeting successfully the larger responsibilities of the new and much 1 larger charge, he found time and op- 1 portunity for much work reaching far 1 beyond the limits of his own church. 1 He preached much in churches of other , denominations in surrounding villages
 and country places, and in the union
 chapels of mill villages whicl abound l in southern Rhode Island. He also l answered many calls in surrounding communities for funeral services and
 weddings.
 | pr. Platts aided in. the organization | of the Rhode Island State Sabbath School and Sunday School associa ton, which body he represented at the in 1 ternationa1 association in it's session at Toronto Canada. He was also 1 association. an auxiliary to the state 1 association. In this capacity he held institutes and gave addresses through out the county. During the period of 1 his residence in Westerly he was a member of the Seventh Day Baptist 1 He was also an examiner for the | Westerly assembly district of the state l normal school at Providence. These i various services were faithfully and acceptably rendered; but while making heavy drafts upon his time and energy
 seldom, if ever. did they take the pas tor from his stated church duties,
 which he always sacred1y held in the highest place.
 Judge Tanner of the superior court, on petition of Samuel Feinhere, a
 member of the board of trustees, which
 had charge of the operation of the
 Hope Valley mills. at Hope Valley, for
 the past year. appointed Henry Calef of Providence temporary receiver of
 the concern. The action grew out of
 a disagreement of the trustees relative
 to operating the plant. In appointing
 a receiver 1t is expected that the af-
 fairs of the company will be wound up
 without further litigation.
 pr. James NJ. Crowley, president of
 the Westerly Catholic club, presided at
 the informal exercises that followed a
 turkey supper in the club rooms. Dr. Crowley urged the members to advance
 the principles of the organization and
 also policy of more sociability that
 could be attained by frequent get-to-
 gether sessions during the winter. During the social session Dr. Michael
 H. Scanlon. Martin H. Spellman and
 Frank Venette made brief and inter
