very fully that these associations whioh.
have been the growth of a life time, and
whioh yon cherish, we are sure. as fond-
ly as we do. cannot be broken without a
strong effort on your part, and we know
that the vacancy which you leave here
will be permanent among our homes

the loss, because no town ,can afford to

congenial families such as yours, whioh
are the nursery of our truest and noblest
citizenship,
We desire not only to convey to yon
the deep sense of our loss at your remov-

We feel aesaredtbat ,these noble quali-
ties of mind and high conceptions of
living will soon win au honorable place
for you in the lite of the Amerioan
people among whom yon make your
future home.
We feel that yon, Mr. Ferguson, are
leaving a vacancy whioh is hard to fill.
Yon have rendered a long and faithful,
eervioe to our town and its interests and
we firmly believe that its prosperity and
favorable financial standing are due in
no smell measure to your painstaking
efforts and to the capable and efficient
manner in which yon have conducted
the business of the town in your official
capacity as clerk and treasurer.
We can assure you.. that your genial
and obliging manner will long be re
membered with gratefulness and satis-
faction by those who have had business
dealings at the Clerk's office. And we
hope that in your new home you may
find congenial surroundings and a oli..
mate favorable to the preservation of
your health that you may still have be-
