DEATH ENDS WORK OF EDITOR DOYLE (Continued from First Page) the weekly newspaper in the plant the bullding at 285 Main street, which is now part of the site of the Grant building. In 1850, Mr. Doyle purchased Mr. Bacon's interest in the business and thenceforth until the day of his death conducted it. Under the direction of Mr. Doyle not only the newspaper but also the job printing plant grew and more room was required. The plant was moved to the old bullding on Wash- ington place, adjacent to the rail- road tracks and was a part of the ipresent site of the United bullding. |The year 1892 saw the establish- ment of the Record as a daily. This brought increased labor for the en- the characteristic energy he always | displayed in his work. He was on | the job night and day and knew the business to its smallest detail. Present Home Erccted In 1902 the question of additional spaco for the expanding business galn became parumount. Mr. Doyle purchased the property at the rear of the lot erected the pres- ent bullding. The construction was done under his own supervision by former Mayor Orson F. Curtis. He was an indefatigable worker, work- Ing harder than an in his employ. In 1917 the business was incorperat- cd as the New Britain Record Co. and Mr. Doyle became the president. He was also the managing editor of the newspaper and the director of the job work. Acquiring his knowledge by hard and consclen- tious work, he made his knowledge serve him throughout the years. In politics Mr. Doyle was a lifes long republican. He believed steade fastly in the principles as expounded by that party and faithfully advocat- ed them in his columns. was he versed in the politics of New Britain but also those of the state sought by party leaders and fol- lowed. As a writer Mr. Doyle was able. He was fully informed on all mat- ters of public concern and was care- tul and accurate always, He was an excellent businessman. As a man he was kindly and generous. He did much charitable work, but never spoke of it, not even to his inti- mates. Declined Public Oftice The deep interest of Mr. Doyle in civic affairs maintained through all ithe years. He was often asked to istand for public office and even be- secched but he felt that & news- paperman had no place in political life other than as an observer and recorder of facts and events. Mr. Doyle's only diversion was vocal music. He sang with the men's chorus of the Y. M. C. A. in the 90's for several years He was a member of old New Britain Choral Union in its presentations. Fraternally he was a i member of New Britain Lodge, No. 957 B. P. 0. E. and Court Charter Oak, Foresters of America. He was |tor many years an associate mem- ber of the New Britain Y. M. C. A. and was also affiliated with the New | Britatn Turner soctety for several years. Married 50 Years Ago On October 10, 1878, Mr. Doyle and Miss Mary A. Langdon of Hartford were married at 8t. Peter's church, Hartford, by Rev. Paul Mc- Elleny. On October 10, this year, they observed their golden wedding day and were the recipients of con- gratulations from many points of the country. Mr. Doyle leaves his wife and two sons, Edmond J. Doyle, vice presi- dent, and Walter J. Doyle, treasurer of the New Britain Record Co. The tuneral, which is in charge of the M. J. Kenney Co., will be held from the nome Tuesdny morning at 9:30 o'clock, followed by a solemn high mass of requiem at 10 o'clock at 8t. Mary's church. Burial will be in St. Mary's cemetery.

Mayor Paonessa expressed _mor- {row today at the death of Mr. Doyle {in the following statement: “The death of J. L. Doyle removes | from our midst a man the communi- | [ty can {ll afford to lose. It is not negessary for men to tell of his life; and his work. For many years he {occupied a position that placed his ‘ecery act before his townsmen. There has not been an important the past few decades on which *J. L.* failed to take a positive stand. No one ever had any doubt as to where Mr. Doyle stood on any question, his | editorlal pen at once proclaiming | his sentiments as soon as they were {formulated in his own mind and be- | fore anyone could take a poll to de- {termine which was the popular side {or which would be the path of least resistance, too often selzed upon by | men in public life. His sincerity and ' | honestness of purpose should be an ! Inspiration to young men in the fleld | of jourmalism. “Mr. Doyle and myself did not al- ways agree on matters of govern- ment. We have had our disputes | over numerous questions, but I have jalways had the satisfaction of know- {ing that he opposed me because of ‘an honest conviction that he es- peused the correct stand. I have found him to be a valuable co- werker on many civic movements, land in common with a great mass of men and women in New Britain, I will miss him now that he has SLIPPERY STREET MENACE T0 AUTOS Tey Pavements Cause Many Col- lisions and Accidents The slippery condition of pave- ments about the city Saturday night and yesterday caused numerous ac- cidents involving automobiles, but none were serious, according to re- ports to the police.
