. spotless integrity, possessing In an em
inent.degree all the social and ssseDtial

and pleasant at all times. lie was the
life and wit of good humor, and had
the fascinating power of entertaining
witli his well-timsd anecdotss and jests
the attention ef those at all times in
whose company he was thrown. Ever
a welcome guest at home or abroad.
Greatly esteemed and universally ad
mired for his suavttv of manners, hi*
goodness of heart, and his gentlemanly
and honorable deportment throughout
a long and eventful life. None knew
him hut to honor, admire and respect
him. He is the last of thirteen mem
