LYNGH DIES AT AGE OF 65 (Continued from First Page) post office carrier | E. member of the force, and. a sister, Mrs, James Bautter. ’ He was a member of New Britain Lodg2 of Elks, but had no ether fra- ternal affiligtions. The funeral will be held morning 4t 9 o'clock at St. Mary's church and burial will be in the family plot in Fairview cemetery. ¥From Burns and Cox Of the many friends of the deceased theatrical and baseball man, ‘there lere perhaps none who were more grieved to learn of the death than were Patrick F. Burns, one of the city’s leading baseball fans who grew up with Mr. Lynch, and F'rank B. Cox, now engaged in real estate business, who was & player and later a manger in the New England league when Mr. Lynch umpired in that circuit. Mr. Burns remembers when the name of Lynch was synonymous with the very best in amateur baseball®in the state of Connecticut., “Tom,” ad he was known to his friends, was catcher for the Mylligan Guards. While he was umpiring In the big leagues, he spent his winters here. Upon his return te New Britain in 1888 he arranged to bring the Chica- go Natienals here to play a picked team. The game was staged at Rent- schler's park and was one of the big! Friday sporting cvents in the city’s history, | interest in the game béing greatly in- creased by the presence of the late “Temmy"” Buyrns, a product of the loval sandlots, as shortstop for the Natiemals, Billy Sunday who afterward tourgd the country as an evangelist was alse with the Chicago team in this game. Cox and Lgnch Meet Frank Cox first met Mr. Lynch when Arnold’s restaurant near the iuilroad arcade was the mecca of sport lovers, where the sporting news of the day was discussed and analyz- ed gnd where predictions for the com- ing seamons were freely made. At the time, Cox was playing in Westfleld, Mass., Tt was while he was jeceiving the congratulations of his friénds up- on hig election to the captaincy of the Grand Rapids, I, team that Mr. Lynch came over to him to extend his well wishes and for the first time they met, They afterwards became warm Triends, After a scason in Grand Rapids, Cox bocame manager of the Law- renee, Mags, teamn. Mr. Lynch had tuken a place as umpire in the Atlan- tic league and as the league was about to break up he wrete Cox telling him about the anticipated discontinuance. Cox told the New England league secretyry that Lyuch's services as an umpire would probably be avallable and e was engaged at once. He was avked to report for the Lawrence- Newburyport game a week later, Ie wagp in the third Inning that the new “ump” arrived at the fleld. The game was balted and he was installed in the box, He umpired with strict impar- tiality and won the approval of the two teams, and after the season was wought by the Natiengl league which was the first step in his movement to- ward the league presidency. Make Your Dollars Work For You It matters not how high your wages are, if you a re spending it all, Just a little accident or a short illn ess, the loes of your job, or any one of a hundred “Hard Times.” Mr, Lynch held the respect of all players, because he demanded it. He would answer no one who addressed | him on the field as “Ump,” “Umpire,” “Tom,” or anything other than "Mis-_ ter Umpire.” * | Mr. Lynch was one of the strong beactiond this poicgi r. cox reintes | NOW Britain Priest Goes From Hartford to Thompsonyille this afternoon numerous instances of Rev.
