DUBUQUE, IA« 



Tlie funeral of U. S. Senator Wil- 

 liam B. Allison, who was buried August 

 9 in Linwood cemetery here, caused some 

 extra design work for the florists. A 

 casket cover in the colors of the national 

 flag was ordered by the family; a large 

 crescent with lyre on stand by the Iowa 

 delegation to congress; a large panel de- 

 sign of white with ' * Iowa ' ' in large red 

 letters by the state officers, and a large 

 laurel wreath from Washington; these 

 were some of the largest and best de- 

 signs. There were several large wreaths 

 of roses, and other designs. Many more 

 would have been sent had not the family 

 published a notice of "Omit flowers." 

 The stores and factories closed during 

 the funeral services. W. A. H. 



WiNCHESTERJ Mass. — Samuel W. 

 Twombly, who was for years a truck 

 gardener and later a florist, celebrated 

 his eighty-sixth birthday July 31. He 

 was born in Tamworth, N. H., July 31, 

 1822, and removed to Boston when he 

 was 18 years of age. After working for 

 a baker in Roxbury he settled down in 

 Winchester, bought a tract of ground 

 and worked it as a truck farm. After- 

 ward he started in the florists' business 

 on Tremont street. Mr. Twombly was 

 three times elected to the General Court 

 —in 1871, and again in 1899 and 1900, 

 after having served his home town in 

 various capacities.
