of 9 mos., 13 days. The littie child

Samuel A. Crombie 
After a lingering illness, extending 
over a period of one year, Samuel A. 
Crombie passed away Monday at his 
late home on Pleasant street, at the 
age of 66 years. Death resulted from 
a complication of diseases. 
Born in Manchester in 1840 he has 
always made his home here. He was 
a son of Samuel B. and Elizabeth 
[Cross] Crombie. He was a wood 
carver by trade, but on the decadence 
of that industry in this town he fol- 
lowed other lines of employment. For 
a number of years he followed the 
sea, but of recent years he has worked 
as a Carpenter. 
He was a charter member of 
Conomo tribe of Red Men, and was 
the first 4th warrior of the order here, 
which office he held continually till 
the time of his illness. 
He is survived by a widow, one 
son, Frank H. Crombie of this town, 
and two daughters, Mrs. Charles 
Holmes of Los Angeles, Cal., and 
Miss Bertha Crombie of this town, 
also two brothers, Enoch and 
Benjamin, both of Manchester. 
Funeral services were held Wednes- 
day afternoon at the memorial chapel, © 
at 2 o’clock, Rev. Edward H. Brews- 
ter officiating. The pallbearers were 
Leonard Andrews, Herbert Shaw, 
Perley Parsons and Charles O. Howe, 
all members of Conomo tribe, about 
35 of which order attended the funeral 
and took part in the commitment ser- 
vices at the grave. These services, 
indeed, were very impressive, and as 
the brothers bade the brother farewell 
wom MARK DOWN ariie 
the white dove of peace was let loose 
and flew away.
