the State as well as one of the best informed horticulturists, and 

 most successful fruit growers. He was always willing to contri- 

 bute his share to inform and instruct those less fortunate in knowl- 

 edge and experience. Until within a few years he was a regular at- 

 tendant at our meetings. 



We cannot but feel that we have lost a personal friend. His 

 death, which has removed from our midst one of our ablest and best 

 informed members occurred September 19, 1904, in the 73d year of 

 his age.
