ATHENS.
The Late James Brown.

The funeral Of James Brown, whose
sudden death May 80 was mentioned
last week, was held Friday afternoon
at l o'clock. A large number of rela-
tives and friends gathered at the home
to pay their last tribute of respect to
him. The casket rested amid beauti.
full flowers, the gifts of loving friends,
while Pastor Sweet spoke fitting
words of comfort and consolation.
The burial took place in the Valley
cemetery. Among those who attended
the service were Willard Fisher of
Stafford Springs, Conn, George M.
Dimond and Helen Cavanaugh of
Bedford, Mass, Mr.. and Mrs. j. A..
Parkhurst, Mr.. and Mrs. Alvan Park
hurst and Miss Fannie Parkhurst of
Weston and many relatives and friends
from surrounding towns.
Mr.. Brown was born in Athens
April l. 1853, a son of James and
Sarah (Oakes) Brown, one of four
children, none of whom are now living.
He was the fourth generation in de
scent from the sturdy old pioneer,
Capt. Seth Cakes, one of the first
permanent settlers of the town.
On June Is, 1882 he married Ella
Fannie Parkhurst of Athens. One
daughter was born to them, Cora j.,
who married Oren Smith of Cam
bridgeport. For several years Chester
was their home. In 1870 Mr.. Brown
came to Athens and bought the place
where he had since lived that he
might be near lis parents and look
after their welfare in their declining
years. These responsibilities he as
sumed cheerfully and willingly.
Although farmer by occupation
his principal interest was in quarry
ing and while living in Chester he was
engaged in that business, part of
the time as foreman at the Union
soapstone quarry. After moving to
his farm in Athens he was foreman
at the Goodrich quarry several years.
He was prominent in town affairs,
serving the town as its efficient road
commissioner for 13 years and had
held at different times the Offices of
selectmaa, school director and lister.
For many years he was a Justice of
the peace and in 1912 was chosen to
represent the town in the state legis-
lature.
He leaves his wife and daughter,
uHtu uIblutI tHu luIct
dren. Howard, Maynard and Pauline
Smith.
Mr. Brown posso ssed cheerful, OPP
timistic nature ard genial kindli-
ness that was nowhere better shown
than in his home fe. A lover of chill
dren, there seemed to be n spirit of
good comradeship between him and
the boys of his acquaintance, who al
ways enjoyed beinq with him. Especi-
ally did he enjoy having his little
grandsons in his home and was al
ways ready to devote his time and
attention to them. In the homes of
those who were near to him by ties of
kindred and in the town where be
grew to manhood and spent a greater
part of his life he viii be sadly miss
ed. He also will he missed by many
friends and acquaintances who came
into occasional contact with him as
well as by those with whom he was
more closely associated.

A stranger that visits Aberdeen for
the first time In his life is charmed
with the beauty of our little town.
Passing down it's main street, he per-
ceives that the citizens have put
forth Q special effort to beautify the
public buildings and make the streets
sttrsctive. He sees the magnificent
city hall with all of it's modern ap-
purtonsnces, the handsome postofiice.
which would do honor to cities much
larger than ours, and the beautiful
Elks' Home and recently remodeled
hotel. of which few cities the size OF
Aberdeen can boast. He sees also
the elegant church edifices and an
attractive public school building.
Then his attention is called to the
handsome residences of our citizens
and the lawns, which are especially
attractive to the pssserby. If, per-
chance. the visitor enters at night he
il met with the glare of electric lights
in "the great white way" which
make him feel that he is in some
great big city.
All this 10 something OF which the
citizens should be proud. and every
one should consider himself fortunate
to be . resident of our city. But
there is still something lacking to
complete its beauty and make us even
more proud. No city is complete
without . Young Mems Christian As

create IN atmosphere of intellectual
ity and morality. They are needed,
and our citizens should not rest salts
