E. S. MILLER, WADING RIVER, N. Y. 



3rd, without the slightest premonition, 

 he having been attending to his busi- 

 ness all during the day. He was one 

 of two brothers, both of whom have 

 been connected with the Thomas F. 

 Galvin Corporation, Boston florists, 

 ever since their childhood days. The 

 other brother, James H. McManus, 

 has been foreman and manager for 

 the Thomas F. Galvin Corporation for 

 many years. 



Mr. McManus was a man of great 

 accomplishments in his calling and 

 was well known to many of the Back 

 Bay residents, his skillful taste in 

 landscape gardening being generally 

 recognized. He will be deeply mourned 

 by his family, consisting of a wife and 

 four children, and by the concern 

 with which he was connected. He 

 was a man of the highest character, 

 beloved by everybody, and leaves a 

 record which is an honor and credit 

 to his name. 



His funeral took place on Saturday, 

 July 6th, and was attended by all of 

 the members of the staff of the Gal- 

 vin Corporation, Thomas F. Galvin. 

 the principal, and his son coming up 

 from Nantucket to be present.
