minister of the Church of the Dis- 
ciples of Boston, a summer resident 
of the North Shore of long standing 
at East Gloucester, died Monday 
evening at his residence, Chestnut 
street, Boston. He had a long and 
varied career of public activity as 
minister, lecturer, practical reform- 
er and _ charitable worker, also 
author. In the pulpit he was dis- 
tinguished for his remarkable rich- 
ness of thought and great clearness 
of expression. He was sought for 
advice in all lines of work and he 
never failed to help the applicant. 
Ilotel Fair View, which entertained 
Rudyard Kipling and other dis- 
tinguished people, was the Hast 
Gloucester hostelry, which  enter- 
tained the Ames family for many 
seasons. They were among the 
pioneer devotees of that section of 
the North Shore.

Twenty-two owners of the Mar- 
abouts have 
blehead one-design 17-foot knock- 
abouts have decided on names for 
their boats. Gordon Abbott of the 
West Manchester contingent is un- 
decided what he will christen his 
craft. The others put in winter 
evenings over the question and now 
have time for other things. Here are 
the names of local owned boats: H. 
M. Sears, Daffydil; J. D. Lawrence, 
Squaw ; AF T. Saltonstall, Daddy B.; 
A. P. Loring, Scarab. All the own- 
ers are tremendously enthusiastic, 
and designer, E. A. Boardman, who 
has worked tirelessly in connection 
with the class, is receiving praise on 
all sides for the splendid little racer 
he has turned out. Lawley, the con- 
structor, is also being complimented 
on the extra quality of material and 
workmanship. The class is the big- 
gest one-design class weighing over 
4,000 pounds ever turned out in this 
country and provides a serviceable 
knockabout with no intent toward a 
racing machine, as that term is or- 
dinarily accepted.
