 personality and charming manner, 

 brimful of merry humor and always 

 ready with a fund of good stories, 

 which made him an ever-welcome com- 

 panion. At the first S. A. P. Conven- 

 tion in Cincinnati he was one of the 

 leading spirits and contributed not a 

 little to the success of that memorable 



event.
