half. Therefore be it, .,. ~
Resolved: That in the death OF
Hon. Frank Redington the city OF
Waterville sustained a loss the depth
of which is very hard to estimate,
His entire. life was spent in this. ms
native city and to it he gave the pest
Of himself, always working for us m
terests. An outstanding figure IN us
business life, his integrity was pc
vcnd question and his sound ]udS-
ment and progressive policies 70
oether with his unfailing optimism
Contributed much toward the az
yancement of Waterville as num-
cipality. ~. ,oor
