Monday morning, after an ill- ness covering several months, Her- man Benson 'Chant linseed away at his home, Rattenbury'street, east, M2. Chant was the *type of citizen Which any community would , fain keep; forwhile he had already passed by a few months the allotted span of life, he was, twat) a few months ago when .he was stricken with the illness which terminated in liis'death, in the full power. of his faculties and attend, ing to the various duties of Ilia' office,,, r' superintendent of','public 'utilities, with his customary alertness and -skill. Mr: Chant was horn in' York County but came:to•Clinton••when :a young ;man, well, .on to, fifty years: ago, arid•,this has. been his,,hameever since. 1, He was for -,many :years with. the Ddherty .Organ • and. Piano Co:, during i the latter years of..hie. stay being in chargo of the electrical and steam engineering plant and superin- tendent 'of the' factory. About this time, too, he was' elected d member of the town Waterworks Commission, 'and. in 1913 Clinton bought out the Clinton Electric Light Co., and Mr.' Chant was given the management of both' the electrical and waterworles department. Later when Hydro was installed and • the 'water- works and electrical departments were placed under the management of a Public Utilities Commission Mr. Chant was appointed superintendent and treasurer; with full charge of the office and the outside work, Mr. Chant was possessed of an analytical mind and he was always studying, always le -Ming, 'se that he mastered his work .and was considered an ex- pert in his line. While interested in his work Mr. Chant xviis too well-balanced to be- eome narrow, he .did his work and did it well, but had time, energy and• ability to devote to many other things.' Ile 'was public-spirited and. was aI- ways interested in anything for the general good. He served as a mem- ber of the Public school board. for years, later on the Collegiate board-. of which he was a member to the. last. He was secretary of the local Masonic lodge and treasurer of ,the Oddfeilows lodge and for a great.. many years, had been an official •of. tho 'Ritesley,-,•later: the ,WesleyriWillia church. And to all these offices and positions he brought .keen judgment - ripe experience, and a wrsn m born of • a knowledge of human nature. But, when all is said, it might be truly elaimbd . that Mr. Chant's strangest characteristic was his• • love fat"; human -kind, He loved delving bac' intricate questions of electricity; lie took a keen delight in mastering some problem 'Width bade fair to baffle him, but more than all he lovedto meet and Millet with his 'fellows. Ile was "friendly," in the true sense of ,the word. And this was the quality which endeared him to those with whom he came in con- tact. Mr. Mantis s}t1'vived byhis wile, who was foriherly '.'Miss Charlotte, Hoolin•es, and one son and two dangle: tors: 'Fred .Chant of Pittsfield, Mass„' Mary, this.
