Death of Joseph Snell. The news of the death of Mr. Joseph Snell, which was circulated on Satur- day night last, was received with keen regret by his many friends in town and surrounding country, notwith- standing the fact that his demise was not in the least unexpected. For over three months deceased has been con- fined to his home, and the greater part of that time to bis bed, from that much dreaded disease called pernicious ante- tuia, from which very few ever recover. THE LATE JOSEPH SNBLL The disease took its characteristic course, one day the patient showing. signs of improvement. while in the next he was not so well; bat the rav- ages of the disease were gradually per- fortuing'theirdeadly nlission,and, laps- ing into a state of unconsoiousness Saturday about nine o'clock in the evening, the curtain was rung down upon his kindly life, Mr. Snell was a native of Exeter, having been born hete in the year 1854, and, if he had Lived into the following day (Sunday) would have been W years of age. At the age of ten he, with his parents, settled near Dashwood, where they located on a bush farm. 'these surroundings he shared with his par- ents, at the same time taking advant- age of the school privileges theft af- forded. At the age of seventeen he had qualified himself fora teacher, and followed the profession for sixteen years, teaching the greater part of the time one and one-quarter miles north of Dashwood. At the age of twenty-five he married Miss Christina Sinton,, and the union was blessed with two children, Oscar W. and Miss Florence. Twenty years ago be embarked in the private banking business, opening up an office at Dashwood. By his up- right dealings and excellent business principles the utmost success attended his efforts and venture. Five years ago he disposed of his banking inter- ests in that place to the Sovereign Bank, which bank mule him manager of the Dashwood'and Zurich branches. Recognizing his abilities in this capac- ity the officials of the Bank appointed hint to the management of the Exeter and Crediton branches. It was at this time he moved with his family to Exe- ter, which was about three years ago. In January last this branch of the Sovereign Bank was taken over by the Bank of Commerce and at that time Mr. Snell was appointed its manager, which position he held up to the time of his demise. The deceased was also identified with the Board of Directors of the Exeter Canning Factory. of which he was their esteemed President. The subject of this sketch was one of the best known and also one of the most highly respected men of the com- munity. in everything to which lie put his hand he applied the qualities of thoroughness anti integrity, which were cardinal principles of his char- acter. Although cut off at a conipara- tively early age. he bas left behind him a clean record. As it banker he well sustained the reputation of his hank for probity and prudence, and as a Christian he was sincere and true to its teachings. In his death Exeter has lost a citizen whose memory all classes will preserve; the bank has lost an ofltcer, whose place it will not readily supply; and those who had the privilege of know- ing him have lost a friend, whose un- failing patience and courtesy endeared hint above ordinary .nen. In his do- mestic life be was particularly lovable and generous in all his impulses. Be- sides the eorrowing wife he is survived by one son. O. W., of Boston, and one daughter. Mies Florence, at horse; besides three brothers and three sisters — William and John, of Dashwood; Charles, Of Cavalier. North Dakota; Mre. Neel), Mre. D. Tiernan and .Diss Letitia Snell, of Dashwood. The family, and especially his mourn- ing widow, have the sytnpathy of a host of friends in this period of their trial. By them he will be peculiarly missed and lamented, and for them our kindest sympathy is extended. The floral tributes of affection and esteem for the deceased laid upon and surrounding the casket were many and of great beauty. The deceased was a valued member of the Masonic Order and also of the independent Order of Foresters, the former of which conducted the fun- eral. which took place on Tuesday afternoon to the Exeter cemetery. Upwards of seventy-five of the hreth- ten were in line and marched in the funeral procession. The ceremony of the Methodist Church, of which he WAS a member, was condtieted by Rev. A. 11.
