Bishop Lawrence, and a pioneer sum- 
mer resident of Hospital Point, Bev- 
erly, is seriously ill at his home, 61 
Commonwealth avenue, Boston, as 
the result of a severe shock Satur- 
day, the second in two weeks. As 
Mr. Lawrence is 64 years old his 
family is doubtful as to his re- 
covery. For nearly three weeks Mr. 
Lawrence has been absent from his 
office. It was said that he was tak- 
ing a rest, but it has become known 
within the last few days that his 
condition is serious. Mr. Lawrence, 
who is a member of the firm, Law- 
rence & Co., dry goods commission 
merchants, recently resigned as 
treasurer of the Boston Episcopal 
Charitable society, after a service of 
21 years. He gave as his reasons 
that he thought the work could be 
carried on better by younger men. 
Mr. Lawrence married Mrs. Laura 
Dugan of New York city, early last 
summer. They spent their honey- 
moon abroad. Amos Lawrence of 
Boston and Beaver Dam, Beverly, is 
a son by a former marriage.
