I The unwelcome intelligence of -Mr.
I Bolander's death,- though it has been
j expected for some time, brings sincere
grief to those whose confidence and
I friendship he held through life.
The deceased was but forty-two years
of age, death coming untimely to rob
his family of a kind .-.husband and
father, and cut short a-earcer of use¬
fulness and promise. M wife and son
and daughter mourn their -loss, a broad
circle of fraternal friendshipsas broken
and the church with which' he * was
identified loses a faithful and \devoted
worker. r'r'■--.-.{^ ._
