The “Breeze” Echoes 
the News from the Shore 
When the Summer days are ended, 
And you leave our pleasant shore, 
Where the autumn tints are blended, 
Where we hear the breakers roar. 
We delight to hear the ocean, 
When its fury is aroused 
With its ever restless motion, 
When we all are safely housed. 
You may have the noise and clatter 
Of your trolley cars and teams; 
You may think apartments better, 
But the seashore fills your dreams. 
Won't you let us keep you posted? 
For our inkstands never freeze ; 
When our rock-bound coast is frosted, 
Why not read the North Shore BREEZE? 
From now till Jan. 1, 1907, for $1. 
To Our Magnolia Subscribers 
We are pleased to announce to our 
Magnolia subscribers that we have 
been able, through the assistance of 
Postmaster Wheaton of Manchester, 
to secure a special Saturday afternoon 
mail sack between Manchester and 
Magnolia, so that in the future our 
readers will not have to wait till Mon- 
day morning to get the BREEZE. 
Unfortunately, Magnolia is not ben- 
efited with extra good mail service in 
the winter season. In fact, the only 
mail arrives on the early morning 
train from Boston, with the exception 
of a sack of papers from Boston on an 
afternoon train. For the past few 
weeks the BREEZE has had to remain 
in the Manchester postoffice till Mon- 
day morning. 
By this special privilege which the 
NORTH SHORE BREEZE 
BREEZE has secured our readers in 
Magnolia — which now number about 
100 — will be able to get the paper 
before 5 o’clock Saturdays. They 
leave Manchester on the 4.12 train. 
Piggery Consumed in Flames 
Brush fires at Lucas’ piggery, near 
the railroad on the way from Manches- 
ter to Magnolia, have been of quite 
common occurrence during the. past 
six months, set in most cases by 
sparks from passing engines. A fire 
at that spot Thursday, however, took 
on a more serious turn and burned a 
string of buildings used by Mr. Lucas 
as a piggery and as sheds for his 
farming utensils, as well as a small 
barn in which was stored over two 
tons of hay, and incidentally some 
real live pigs came near being roasted. 
Mr. Lucas had a brush fire in the 
morning, but he put it out before 
going to dinner. The strong wind 
must have started this again, for the 
first he knew the whole place was 
afire. 
The chemical was taken down from 
Manchester, but was of little avail, as 
the fire had a big headway before the 
alarm was given. There was no in- 
surance. The loss is estimated at 
$1500. 
OBITUARY 
Charlotte E. Brown 
The sudden death of Miss Char- 
lotte E. Brown at her late home on 
School street, in Manchester, last Sat- 
urday just before noon, was a great 
shock to her many friends here and 
elsewhere. In apparent good health 
one day, and in fact, an hour before 
her death she was down town shop- 
ping, chatting with friends as usual, 
the end came without the least 
warning. 
For some time she had_ been 
troubled with a heart affection, but 
no serious symptoms were evident, 
though she was being treated by a 
physician of the Beverly Farms sum- 
mer colony. She was about town as 
usual Saturday morning and though 
she complained of being tired and of 
being pressed for breath, no one sur- 
mised the seriousness of her trouble. 
She died so suddenly that a physician 
could not reach her side before the 
end came. 
Miss Brown was born in Manches- 
ter July 23, 1838. She was a daughter 
of Deacon Andrew Brown and Mary 
Ann Tuck, and was born at the fam- 
ily homestead on the Old Neck, in a 
house that stood on the site of the 
Henry Pickering summer home. 
She commenced business 28 years 
ago in the house owned by her father 
-and has from year to year added to it 
until she had at the time of her death 
one of the finest summer hotels, of 
the kind which she conducted, along 
the coast. The place is known as 
« Brownland’’ and she conducted it 
with much success, amassing consid- 
erable wealth. The past year she 
gave up the managcment of the busi- 
ness to her nephew, Maynard B. Gil- 
man, and has lived in her beautiful 
new house on School street, in which 
she died. 
A brother, Dr. John A. Brown of 
Boston, and three sisters, Mrs. Albion 
Gilman, Mrs. C. P. Goldsmith and 
Miss Sarah T. Brown (half-sister), 
survive her. The latter has been 
connected with her in the hotel busi- 
ness. 
Miss Brown was loved by every- 
body. She was a kind-hearted woman, 
always giving to charity, and ever 
anxious that everyone should be cared 
for. She was a member of the Con- 
gregational church and of the sewing 
circle. 
Funeral services were held at her 
late residence Tuesday afternoon at 
2 o’clock, a large number of friends 
and relatives attending. Rev. Mr. 
Lincoln officiated, assisted by Rev. 
Mr. Brewster. The Albion quartet 
of Boston rendered three selections. 
Interment was at Rosedale. A num- 
ber of the summer colony who have 
returned to town, some of whom 
spent their first days in Manchester, 
as Miss Brown’s guests, were in at- 
tendance. There wasa grand floral 
tribute. The pallbearers were: Wm. 
Hoare, N. P. Meldrum, F. J. Merrill 
and Benjamin Marble. 
Eulogy to the Late Miss Brown 
Rev. C. Arthur Lincoln paid tribute 
to the late Miss Brown in his sermon 
at the Congregational church last 
Sunday morning. He preached from 
John 14:9, and in closing his sermon 
spoke as follows : 
«Because I live, ye shall live also.” 
Blessed assurance! but listen! “TI 
go to prepare a home for you.”” Won- 
derful comfort! but still again I hear 
His voice, “I will come for you.” No 
desire of the human heart is left un-- 
satisfied. Him whom my soul has. 
most longed to see face to face, him I 
shall see for myself and mine eyes 
shall behold and not another, for “I 
know that my redeemer liveth” and 
then, while I still walk with him, I 
shall find myself in the place he has 
prepared for me, the home filled with
