Obituary. 



E. L. Remier. 



E. L. Remier, one of the pioneer 

 residents of California and believed 

 to be the oldest florist in the state, 

 died in San Francisco, Cal., on Feb. 

 13, following an operation several days 

 previous. He is survived by his sec- 

 ond wife and two daughters. 



J. A. Bolgiano. 



Joseph Ault Bolgiano, for many 

 years head of the seed firm of J. Bol- 

 giano & Son, of Baltimore, Md., died 

 on March 1, at the home of his son-in- 

 law. Dr. J. Burch Joyce, in the 77th 

 year of his age. Mr. Bolgiano had 

 been in failing health for a long time, 

 due to a complication of diseases. 



A native of Baltimore and interested 

 in a number of financial, religious and 

 philanthropic institutions, Mr. Bolgiano 

 was widely known. He was the sec- 

 ond president of the Young Men's 

 Christian Association, organizer of the 

 Greenmount Avenue Methodist Episco- 

 pal Church, a director in the Free 

 Summer Excursion Society, active in 

 Sunday School work, and a director 

 in several financial institutions. About 

 fifteen years ago he retired from the 

 seed business, which has been in the 

 Bolgiano family for 95 years. It was 

 established by Mr. Bolgiano's grand- 

 father. His father became the head 

 of the firm, and he succeeded his 

 father. The business is now conducted 

 by two of his sons. Mr. Bolgiano spent 

 50 years in the business. He was vice- 

 president of the American Seed Trade 

 Association at its second and third 

 conventions. 



The funeral took place on Tuesday, 

 March 4, and burial was at Green- 

 mount Cemetery.
