In memoriam. 



It is our sorrowful duty to refer once more to 

 the sudden bereavement our New-York branch has 

 suffered in the unexpected death of 



Mr. Carl Brucker, 



our senior resident partner in that city. We need 

 not enlarge on the important part the deceased has 

 played in the development of our American business, 

 with which he was connected for nearly 20 years. 

 His affability and genial disposition were highly 

 appreciated by the many friends who mourn with us 

 his untimely death.
