regular apprenticeship, upon the completion of which he be- 

 came a ship-joiner. With this experience he joined the con- 

 struction force of the Museum as a cabinet-maker, and in this 

 position served efficiently for eight years. A man of exem- 

 plary character and habits, he was of sterling integrity, 

 steadfast in friendship and always welcome among groups 

 of his associates. Patient during a long-continued illness, he 

 was released from his suffering on September 23, 1919.
