quietly at his villa during the stim-

the past season he had taken a greater
interest in the social affairs of the
city. being especially interested In the
Newport Casino. oi which he was for
many years president. He was a reg-

show. and drove out daily with his
wife. lie had always a kindly nod Or
a word for his many friends and ae-
quaintaaces among the business peo-
pic. oi Newport by whom he was held
in the. highest esteem. lie was il reg'
Iiiar attendant at the services of Trin-

Its resources. lie was a generous con-
tributor to local charity and gave an

aid the sick and distressed in Newport.
and on his departure in the autumn
each year he left a considerable fund
for the. distribution among the poor
during the winter.
