At a special meeting of the Board

announcement of tho death of Ed
win F. Torrey having been mado,

deliver a copy to Mrs. 'Edwin F. Tor
rey. Minute.
" Edwin F. Torrey was elected to
tho Board of Managers of the
Honesdale Cemetery Company Jan.
25, 1888, to fill the vacancy caused
by the death of his brother, Robert
N. Torroy, and served continuously
as a manager from that date to the
time of his death. From motives
of family sentiment, as well as from
personal desire, ho took a deep and
active interest In tho affairs of the
company, and was foremost to fur
ther any plan which would make
Glen IDyberry a beautiful and ap
propriate City of the Dead.
It is just and fitting that his hon
ored romalns should rest in her soil.
To those who sorrow most at his
death wo extend our sympathy, and
to all who knew him wo commend
tho example of his busy and spot
less life."
