OBITUARY. 



It is with muoii regret we report the 

 death of Albert Zimmerman, one of 

 Pasadena's foremost and most able 

 horticulturists. Mr. Zimmerman was 

 the first Park Superintendent in Pasa- 

 dena, taking charge of the parks as 

 soon as they were completed, which 

 position he held until forced to take 

 a change about eighteen months ago 

 for the benefit of his health. About 

 six months ago he went to Arizona 

 for a change of climate, but being un- 

 able to regain his health started back 

 to Pasadena, though sad to relate he 

 died on the way. His body however, 

 was brought back to Pasadena for 

 burial. 



Mr. Zimmerman was the first treas- 

 urer of the Pasadena Gardeners' Asso- 

 ciation and was an able worker for 

 the improvement and advancement of 

 the association. 



On Nov. 28, William C. Elliott 

 passed away after an illness of several 

 month's duration. Mr. Elliott was for 

 many years head gardener on the 

 Greene estate at the Mile Corner, 

 Newport, R. I. About six years ago he 

 retired, devoting his attention since 

 then to the growing of sweet corn of 

 improved varieties, many of them of 

 his own raising. Mr. Elliott was a 

 man of sterling character, modest and 

 unassuming, retiring in his disposition 

 but strong in his beliefs. 



Thomas Hefliug, who for many years 

 was identified with gardening and flor- 

 ist Interests in Milwaukee, Wis., died 

 at his home on December 5, at the age 

 of 80. A widow and seven children sur- 

 vive him. 



Mrs. E. V. Hallock died at her home 

 In Queens, N. Y., on December 8. The 

 funeral on Monday, Dec. 9, was at- 

 tended by many friends in the trade. 



The funeral of James Vick, late of 

 Rochester, took place at Philadelphia 

 on the 7th inst. W. Atlee Burpee was 

 one of the pall bearers.
