Obituary. 



Willam Brown. 



One of the old-time Philadelphia 

 gardeners passed away on the 13th 

 inst. at his residence, 47th street and 

 City Line, Philadelphia. William 

 lirown was gardener for many years 

 on the Simpson estate at Merion, and 

 for the past ten years has been for- 

 ester in Fairmount Park. While he 

 did not come forward prominently at 

 exhibitions or florists' gatherings he 

 was of a very genial and sociable dis- 

 position and belonged to many frater- 

 nal societies and was a Mason of high 

 degree. A. Lincoln Biown, his eldest 

 son (now located in Cleveland) was a 

 famous Philadelphia bowler in days 

 gone by and was well known in S. A. 

 F. circles. 



Lieut. Chaure. 



It is with very deep regret that we 

 record the death of this gallant young 

 officer who met his death in the "Re- 

 publique" dirigible disaster. He was 

 the son of our old and esteemed friend 

 M. Lucien Chaure, the editor of the 

 Moniteur d'Horticulture of Paris. 



Lieut. Chaure entered the French 

 Ai-my at the age of 18 years and was 

 an enthusiastic airship officer. His 

 grandfather, Jean Chaure, was the 

 founder and for many years editor of 

 the journal referred to.

 City, 0., president of the Miami Coun- 

 ty Horticultural Society, was instantly 

 killed by a Big Four train Friday 

 morning, Oct. &, at Brown's Crossing, 

 near Troy. 



Mr. Scarff was well known in Clark 

 and Miami counties and for many 

 years was more or less interested in 

 the nurserj' business which at one 

 time was quite . an industry in the 

 neighborhood of New Carlisle.
