were the strongest business men in Boston, whose judgment he re- 

 spected and whom, though not in his Hne of life, he was glad to meet 

 in all places and under any circumstances. Mr. Green had long 

 been warned that he was a minute man, but his end was sudden 

 when it came. His last two years, made happy in many ways, were 

 quiet, thoughtful, elevating. His religion was simply " Do unto oth- 

 ers as you would that others should do to you." It is singular that 

 his favorite cousin, Mrs. William W. Tucker, should have died in 

 Paris on the same day [January 8]. Mr. Green's funeral took place yes- 

 terday [January lo] at lo o'clock, at his late residence, No. no 

 Newbury street, and was largely attended. After the simple service 

 of the Episcopal Church, the remains were taken to Groton, for inter- 

 ment in the family lot. 



Henry Atkinson Green, Esq., died at his residence in Newbury 

 Street, Boston, on Jan. 8, 1891. He was a son of Dr. Joshua and 

 Eliza (Lawrence) Green, and born at Groton, on April 29, 1828. 

 He was educated at the academy in his native town, and in 1846 

 came to Boston to live. At the time of his death, and for many years 

 previously, he was a member of the firm of Mackintosh, Green 

 & Co. His wife, Mrs. Emily (Wagner) Green, died on Jan. 4, 1885. 

 Mr. Green left two married children : Mrs. Caroline Sargent Green, 

 wife of William Amory Meredith, of London, England ; and William 

 Lawrence Green, of Albany, N. Y. The interment took place at 

 Groton.
