CHARLES CURTIS GARLAND.
Death came to Charles Garland at
his home here on Thursday. His
health has never been very good and
he has had several severe sicknesses,
and was once this year in a hospital
at Montreal for treatment.
His last sickness was brought on
by overwork and he was sick only ten
days. The Friday before his death
he had a shock which left his right
side useless. During his life of "a
years his cheerful disposition made
him many friends, and his never fail
ing smile and courteous greetings will
be missed by all who knew him.
He was a faithful member of the
Congregational church here and his
funeral was held at the church Sat-
urday afternoon, Rev. w. R. Price
officiating. The choir sang appro-
| pirate selections. Prior to the SER
vice at the church there was a short
service at the home and Rev. Price
sang a solo.
Charles was born in Derby and was
the son of Orman and Elizabeth CARR
Garland. Besides the parents there re-
main two sisters, Mrs. Wilbur Foster
and Mrs. Will Hildreth, and brother.
