National Bank as messenger, where 
he remained to finally fill the vice- 
president’s chair. In 1899 he resigned 
to become bank examiner for Minne- 
sota and Wisconsin; in 1902 he was 
made president of the Second Na- 
tional Bank of St. Paul, which has 
greatly prospered under his guiding 
control. He was chosen a trustee of 
the Oakland Cemetery Association in 
1906 and he served in that capacity 
nearly six years. His service has been 
characterized by ability, activity and 
faithfulness, and his delightful per- 
sonality endeared him to all the mem- 
bers of the board, as well as to the 
employes with whom he came in con- 
tact. He leaves a wife and four sons 
besides his father and brothers and 
sister. He was interred in Oakland 
Cemetery on Monday, July 8. 
PUBLISHERS’ NOTES. 
“Billerica” is the title of a small 
eight-page monthly, the first copy of 
which was issued June 1, 1912. In the 
letter transmitting it, Mr. Warren H. 
Manning, the well known landscape 
architect, of Boston, says: “Although 
it is apparently purely local in its ap- 
peal, nevertheless it is an example 
of the sort of thing that could be tried 
in small places everywhere.” Biller- 
ica, Mass., is an industrial town ot 
fewer than 3,000 inhabitants, was for- 
merly a typical ugly New England 
mill town, but forces have been at 
work resulting at last in the conclu- 
sion of the better citizens that all of 
the town must be carefully studied 
and planned with reference to its fu- 
ture needs for conveniences and 
beauty. The outcome is the little 
magazine, “Billerica.” To the preser- 
vation of this movement and to the 
maintenance of the spirit of co-opera- 
tion and encouragement, it is evident- 
ly intended that Billerica shall con- 
tribute in large measure, and such an 
excellent example of effort towards 
upbuilding so promising a progressive 
movement should be examined and
