OBITUARY. 



David Miller. 

 David Miller, aged S3 years, died at 

 his home at Washington Heights, Har- 

 risburg. Pa., on June 25. Mr. Miller 

 was from a family of horticulturists, 

 and was well acquainted with Down- 

 ing, Marshall P. Wilder and many of 

 the famous horticulturists of the last 

 century, and his reminiscences were 

 most delightful to listen to. He was 

 also one of those who attended the 

 first meeting of the American Pomo- 

 logical Society. Mr. Miller did a thriv- 

 ing nursery lausiness up to about the 

 time of the Civil Wav, near Carlisle, 

 but as his trees were too big for the 

 north most of them went to the south, 

 and with the commencement of hos- 

 tilities the market for his stock was 

 cut off. Since that time he has car- 

 ried on a nui'sery business in a small 

 way. His most prominent introduction 

 was the Cumberland raspberry. In the 

 death of Mr. Miller we lose another of 

 the famous old-time horticulturists. 

 Although not so widely known as 

 Downing, Wilder, and others of his 

 contempoiaries. he was very promi- 

 nent locally and looked up to by all 

 who knew him. 



Daniel W. Langton. 



In the death of Daniel W. Langton, 

 landscape artist, the Hudson County, 

 N. J., park commission, by which he 

 was employed, loses a valuable assist- 

 ant. Mr. Langton laid out the develop- 

 ment scheme for West Side Park and 

 this park will be a lasting monument 

 to his memory. In his profession Mr. 

 Langton occupied an enviable position. 

 During his connection with the County 

 Park Itoard he made many friends. He 

 was a public-spirited man and pos- 

 sessed a winning personality that made 

 friends for him wherever he went. 



His last work in connection with 

 the county park scheme was the lay- 

 ing out of a plan for the development 

 of the tract at Harrison, purchased 

 some time ago.
