HENRY S. BYINGTON.
HAnnr SUM’I‘BR anvoroa was born in
Norwalk on the fourth day of July, 1861.
He died at 20 minutes to 12 Saturday
night, January 8th 1887. From October
1882, to July, 1886, he had been editor and
proprietor of the Norwalk Guam. In
June last he was stricken with chills and
GOV. LOUNBBUBY’S INAUG‘URALL.
Governor Lounsbury states at the be-
ginning of his inaugural that the finances
of the state are in a highly satisfactory
condition. At the beginning of the present
fiscal year, July 1, the funded debt of the
state was $4,271,000. Of this debt 5 per
cent. bonds amounting to $1,080,000 are
due May 1, 1897, but are redeemable at
the pleasure of the state after the lat of
next May The governor recommends
that these bonds be paid as soon as they
become redeemable, and that funds for
this purpose be provided by the issue of
new 3 per cent. bonds, payable 30 years
fever, culminating With malarial blood from date. The ordinaryrevenue receipts
poisoning. The fatal seeds of his disease,
however, were undoubtedly sown at the
fire at Gregory’s stable on the coldest
night of last year. Being a member of
one our Ioca. Firemens organizations,
(Pioneer Hook and Ladder company, ) he
braved a most terrible exposure. After
the fire was over he was found to be so
frozen that his feet had to be immersed in
cold Water before his boots could be re-
mowd. This was followed by a severely
vigorous rubbing for nearly two hours
before his benumbed circulation was re-.
stored. From this time in March on to
July, though not supposing he had sus-
tained any very serious injury, he had a
tired feeling, and his accustomed energy,
nerve and grip were gone. His malarial
attack seems to have involved his lungs
from the first. He ran down so rapidly
his physician ordered him taken to Ocean
Grove, hoping the sea air would tone up
his system so that he might be removed to
Colorado or southern California. He re-
mained at the sea shere nearly a month,
but his debility was so extreme that the
idea of the long journey Westward had to
be abandoned. He returned home and
prepared for a trip to the mountain regions
of North Carolina. It was a terrible test
of his wasted physical forces, but his will
power was equal to the ordeal, and he
spent some two months at Greensboro
and Asheville. The stimulating climate
gave new energy to his weakened system
and no doubt arrested tr 0 rapid progress
of his malady. Here a critical examina-
tion by a medical expert revealed the dis-
heartening fact that recovery was impos-
sible. All his mental and physical powers
were then rallied for the realization of the
one supreme wish to again reach his boy-
hood’s home to die among his loved ones.
He bore the weary journey home, with
wonderful fortitude. He was conveyed to
his coach, which he fully realized he was
never to leave alive, andjwithout one word
of impatience or repining. awaited the in-
evitable hour of his departure.
The greater portion of his school-boy life
was passed under the care and tuition of
the late Dr. J. C. Fitch, and he ever after-
wards felt and expressed the sincerest
gratitude to Dr. and Mrs. Fitch. At
“Hillside” he was fitted for Yale and
when about to enter, learning that his
father was involved in serious financial
difficulties, be unknown, to .his family,
procured for himself a.position as law-
student in the office of the Hon. Stewart
L. Woodford. Here he remained about
two years, and was ably tutored by the
Hon. Wm. P. Fiero, then Assistant U. S.
DistrictAttorney for the Southern District
of New York. From New York he went
to Washington with the purpose of enter-
ing and graduating from the Law
Department of Columbia College. Here
he was tendered a clerkship by Secretary
Lincoln, in the Surgeon-General’s ofiice,
that he might sustain himself while com-
pleting his law course. It was at this
time that circumstances brought about the
realization of his one most ardent wish.
This was that he might succeed his father
to the proprietorship of the GAZETTE.
His administration as editor of this paper
need not be enlarged upon. Our readers
know with what painstaking care, pru-
dence and zeal, he performed his duties.
It is only just to state that many of the
tender tributes paid to one and another of
Our deceased citizens in these columns and

maul" uII v-ilxnfurl
Were the expressions of his own warm
sympathies and graceful pen. From his
earliest boyhood, the printing office had
been his delight. He wrote with ease and
vigor and at times with fine poetic force
and fancy. He loved his work and was
especially careful not to wound the feelings
or sensibilities of any one. No line of
personal vindictiveness or malevolent as-
sault ever marred his newspaper record.
He wrote with dignity, candidly and with
conscientious avoidance of all irreverence
or flippant treatment of serious or sacred
things. > He seemed manfullyconscious of
the duties and responsibilities of his edi-
torial pbsition.
Ail tlirough the long, weary months of
pain and extremest exhaustion, his forti-
tude never gave way. His genial nature,
resolute courage and unclouded intellect,
continued to the end. Calmly and with
unfulteriug faith, he awaited the final
summons calling him to his eternal home.
He had during all his sufferings, the con-
stant ministrations of a devoted wife, now
left to the unutterablc desolation of child-
less widowhood. The mind is dazed in
its efforts to interpret the Providence that
permits a light so bright with the possibil-
ities of usefulness, to thus suddenly go
out. Those who knew and loved him sit
dumb in contemplation of his departure.
At the incoming of the first Sabbath
hour, while yet the restful peace and glo-
ries of eternal morning were on his wasted
brow, “God touched him with His finger
and he slept.”
His funeral takes place today, Wednes-
day, at 2 p. m., at the residence of his
parents on Belden Avenue. The inter-
ment will be private at the convenience of
the family.

For Warden.
A special Borough meeting for the elec-
tion of a Warden to succeed Mr. James
W. Hyatt, resigned, is called, to take
place on Wednesday of next week, 19th
jnst.
There is every prospect that Col. F. St.
John Lockwood will be the republican
nominee for the « fiicc. We understand
that, yielding to the unanimous wish of a
number of the leading republicans and
prominent business men of the Borough,
he has consented to the use of his name
as a candidate for the nomination, and
there is no reason to doubt that he will
be elected by :1 handsome majority and
he. will be a worthy successor to Mr.
Hyatt. who has filled the office with honor
to himself and to the satisfaction of the
Borough tax payers.
Col. Lockwood possesses qualifications
lhatrmirrently fit him for the responsibilL
tics of the office, his executive ability and
sound business judgment being abund-
antly attested in his administration of the
afiairs of the Fairficld County National
Bank, and the Daubury & Norwalk Rail-
road C mpany, as president of both cor-
poratious.
lie is a man of progressive ideas, and is,
above all, inspired with a spirit of pat-
riotism and local pride that would mani-
fest itself in the advancement and beauti-
fication of our Borough and its progress
financially and physically.
Extensive financial transactions will be
invoIVed in the coming fiscal year of the
Borough, and it is desirable that the ex-
ecutive management be intrusted to a
man capable and experienced in the art of
finance, and in Col. Lockwood are com-
bined the qualifications equal to any con.
tingency that may arise. ‘
Our citizens can do no better than to
elect him.

the number of Sunday excursions has di-
minished. Any legislation which does not
interfere with acts of necessity or mercy,
which guarantees undisturbed worship of
God to those who choose to worship, and
Sunday rest to as many as possible of the
railroad employes in the state is right in
itself and will meet with public approval.”
The opinion is expressed that “when some
wise scheme shall be devised whereby the

state can sell‘at its full value some fit
product of the labor of its convicts instead
of the labor itself, and when the demands
of justice shall be so heeded that the short
sentences of the present courts give place
to the longer ones which our criminals
richly deserve, two desirable results will
follow. That real grievance which is
caused by the degrading competition of
underpaid convict labor—degrading not
because it is convict, but because it is
underpaid—will be abolished, and the in-
come of your prison will exceed all its
ordinary and extraordinary expenses by a
surplus so large that it will go along way
toward meeting the costs of your criminal
courts.” Strong approval is given to the
recommendat on of the prison directors
for more severe criminal laws, and the
legislature is urged to place upon the
statute-books a law not less stringent than
that of Ohio. “Some. future legislature
will wisely take along step beyond this,
and will fix the life sentence as the penalty
for every crime, the commission of which
shall show that the man is already a con-
firmed crimina .”
The labor commissioner is upheld in his
plea for a statute exempting from attach-
ment the wages of mechanics and laborers
—tlie “factorizing” or “trustee” process.
Vt hen it comes to the school question the
governor is especially forcible. The num-
ber of children between the ages of 4 and
16 was 152,166. The number of scholars
registered in the schools was 125,539, but
of these many attended school only a few
days, and many more only the 60 days
required by law. The number of children
that did not attend school at all was
20,388. “These are the figures and the
facts, but no report of your able school
board, no statistics of a census, could
show the frightful amount of illiteracy
that is existing all over the state. \\ ithin
the last ten years thousands of boys and
girls have passed beyond the limit of their
school life, have gone out into the world,
and to-day they are virtually unable to
read and write.” The governor urges
that greater attention should be given to
the back districts, that the number of days
of compulsory attendance should be in-
creased from 60 to 120, that the length of
school required should be raised above
the 24 weeks now fixed. If poverty and
shiftlessuess form an insuperable barrier
between the home and schooLhouse, let
the children be taken away.

and we trust it will, for its senior editor,

blacklist and thus aimed -to revent, and
did for a lon time prevent, his earning a
livelihood. his is too common a. prac-

it _is a boycott against the workingman of

While some of the Democratic papers
are scolding the President for not turning
Republicans out of office, the New York
World comes down to hard facts. thus :
In Maryland, as in Indiana and other
ritates, there has been practically a clean
sweep of the ofices and the spoilsmen
have been given full sway.
Willie Maples 'of Westport is one of the
messengers in the state senate.
Past Commander J. W. Ambler, of
Buckingham Post, G. A. R., accompanied
by a good sized delegation of Norwalk
comrades, went to Stamford Thursday
evening and installed the newly elected
officers of Hobbie Post. They were given
a royal reception by their Stamford com-
rades and partook of a bountiful collation,
in which the inevitable soldiers’ delicacy,
pork and beans, figured conspicuously.
New York city consumes 6,000,000 bar-
rels of lager beer a year. From this it

Hon P. C. Lounsbury is expected in
town to-_morrow to remain over Sunday.
He wants one quiet day in old Ridgefie d
before assuming the responsibilities of the
gubr rnatorial chain—Ridgcfield Press.
The above reminds us to say that the
studied effort made by certain newspapers
during the state campaign to convey the
impression that Mr. Lounsbury was in
realitya resident of New York, was en-
tirely unjust and untrue. His home is
in Ridgefield and is never closed there.
He has business interests ill New York,
name is far more permanently established
and personally dWelt in at Ridgefield
than Hon. Wm. H. Barnum’s is at Lime
Rock,or hundreds of other bona fidc resi-
dents of Connecticut who have business
headquarters in New York. There should
now be an end of this falsity and non-
sense.
In his annual report Commissioner
Hadley argucs in favor of weekly pay-
ments. The only limitation on this sys-
tem that seems to us advisable is that the
payments should be made in the middle
of the week rather than Saturday after-
noon or evening. In the case of intem-
perate workmen whose Saturday night is
followed by a holiday, the temptation to u
wasteful spree is too great to be overlook-
ed iii any close consideration of the wages
question.—New Haven New.

The readers of the GAzEr'rE will be
pleased to learn that there is at least one
dreaded disease that science can cure in
all its stages and that is Catarrh. Hall’s
Catarrh Cure is the only positive cure now
known in the medical fraternity: Catarrh
being a constitutional disease requires a
constitutional treatment. Hall’s Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting directly
upon the blood and mucus surfaces of the
system, thereby destroying the foundation
of the disease and giving the patient
strength, bybuilding up the constitution
and assisting nature in doing its work.
The proprietors have so mrich faith in its
curative powers that they offer one hun-
dred dollars, for any case it fails to cure.
