The Late Francis 4. st. Ledger
lFor the Renorterl


Not within the memory of the pres
ent day resident and probably not in
the history of this community has
such Il tribute been paid in the death
of any local resident as that shown
by the people of this town upon the
passing of Francis h. st. Ledger, son
Of Mr.. and Mrs M. st. Ledger of 20
Bloomfield street. Parralieled only
ny the military honors shown to those
Of her sons who took part in the
World War, of which this town had
its full quota and especially the tri-
butte paid to those who gave their
lives in that great conflict. there has
been no happening of n similar ma
ture in this community that has
caused more widespread and sin
cere sorrow than that manifested
upon the passing of this well known
and among this towns most popular
Young men.
The tribute accorded to Francis r..
81. Ledger might we'll he deserved
by one who had rendered some great
public service for the advancement
and benefit of great public enter
prise. Such affection. regard and es-
TEEN shown by the people of
this town in general-friends, neigh
bors, relatives. business men. officials
and numerous from beyond the con
zines of the town only served to make
this public manifestation dOnbIy i'm
pressiyo as marking the worthiness of
the deceased and must he a source
of immense consolation to the bereav-
ed family.
The death of Francis h. st. Ledger
is the second within short period In
the st. Ledger family, Sergt. Harry
y. st. Ledger having been among the
local boys who gave their lives in the
thick of battle In France. he having
fallen in battle in July, 1918. This
recent death following so soon upon
the death of their soldier-boy son has
again broken the family circle and
has taken one who will leave n
void that cannot be filled. il time will
cfrace the loss. and has taken from
the community "A young man who was
beloved for his many ENROLLING traits
OF character, which made him highly
esteemed by all who knew him or
came In contact with him in his daily
life. That this was so was shown
