ROSA HUGONIS. 



We note with interest yours regard- 

 ing Rosa Hugonis, page 511, May 25th 

 issue. We have had this plant under 

 observation here since 1911 and re- 

 garding no new variety have we felt 

 more ecstatic than from Hugonis when 

 in bloom this season. One can with 

 ease cut beautiful, long, arched sprays 

 in quantities from some of our older 

 bushes and they produce a display of 

 beauty such as no real rose lover can 

 resist. With temperature the past 

 winter 20 degrees below zero, not a tip 

 suffered from the cold. The acacia- 

 like foliage is a thing of beauty at all 

 seasons and especially when the new 

 growth shows its rich mahogany 

 stems. We shall be very much inter- 

 ested to see what may be done with 

 this rose as a forcing variety because 

 from many different standpoints, 

 beauty of foliage, abundance of bloom 

 in season, it is certainly unmatched. 

 I wish more people knew it.

William Hay. 



William Hay, 51, for many years pro 

 prielor of a florist establishment on 

 Dyer avenue, and for the past 10 years 

 a wholesale grower of roses, in Oak- 

 lawn, R. 1., died at his home in the lat- 

 ter place June 5. Death was due to a 

 stroke of paralysis which he suffered 

 Monday morning. Mr. Hay was born 

 in Scotland, and would have been 52 

 years old Saturday, the day of his 

 burial. He came to Rhode Island 

 when a young man and had since been 

 engaged in the florist's business, being 

 employed by others for several years, 

 and later commenced business for 

 himself. During the most of the time 

 he conducted a general business, but 

 since going to Oaklawn he had given 

 his attention almost entirely to the 

 growing of roses, and was ranked as 

 an expert in this line. 



Besides a widow, Mr. Hay Is sur- 

 vived by six children. Mrs. James Booth 

 of East Brookfield, Mass.; Misses Jen- 

 nie, Dorothy and Ethel, and William 

 J. and Lawrence C. Hay, of Oaklawn. 

 He also leaves three brothers, Daniel 

 Hay, gardener for the Vanderbilt 

 estate in Newport; James Hay, a flor 

 ist in East Greenwich, and Law- 

 rence Hay, engaged in a similar busi- 

 ness in East Providence. 



Dennis Murphy. 

 During a quarrel with his son, Den- 

 nis Murphy, a gardener, living at 82 

 Highland road. Brookline, fell on the 

 sidewalk opposite his home and died 

 shortly afterward of a fractured skull 

 The circumstances seem to Indicate 

 that the death of the father was due 

 to an accident. 



Hightstown, N. J. — Charles .1. Ros- 

 zel, a florist of Hightstown, identified 

 a body found floating in the bay off 

 the Statue of Liberty as that of his 

 son, Charles L. Roszel, twenty-one 

 years old. Despondency over his call 

 in the draft army is believed to have 

 led to the young man's suicide. Ros- 

 zel was a salesman for a Maiden lane 



jewelry concern. He left his home in 

 Hightstown on May 23.
