The Connecticut ancestors of Mr. Tourtelotte were all farmens, and to rural pursuits he himself was reared. He grew up a farmers son, and T ceived such educational advantages the neighborhood schools afforded, sup- plemented by @ course at Nichols academy, Dudley, Mass. . On the breaking out of the Civil war in 1861 Mr, Tourtelotte enlisted las a private in Company D, First | Massachusetts Volunteer infantry. He { served his country withi credit through three years and returmed to his town with an honorable war record. This one paragraph from the history of his regiment is sufficient evidence of his | strength of character: “Mr. Tourtelotte alons with captured a first Heutenant, a s and twenty-four privates belonging to the Fifty-sixth North Carolina Volun- teers.”” In 1876 Mr. Tourtelotte left the farm |and opened an insurance office and | grain store in North Grosvenordale. { Later he discontinued the latter busi- ness. In the insurance business ho was very successful. In 1868 he was made a trial justice of his town, but his public career be- gan at an earlier date. On his return from the war, in 1365, he was elected a member of the general assembly, serv- ing in the house in 1§65 and 1866, and in 1676 was elected a member of the state senate, Mr. Tourtelotte was a gelectman of Thompeon for 19 vears. His political afiliations are with the republican party. He is a member of the Methodist urch. For the past four or five years Mr. | Tourtelotte’s health has been such as to require that he relinquish all active participation, in business affairs. If is of epecial interest to note that during the 19 years that he was connected with the administration of the affajr: s rifle -geant er of its board of selectmen the debt of that township was gradually re- duced until finally it was entirely eliminated and a surplus of funds cre- | ated, glving Thompson the unique dis- | tincfion of being the only town in the state that had money in its treasury. Six_ohildren wers born to Mr. and Mrs. Tourtelotte, three of whom died in infancy. These living are J. Burton of Thompson, Percival ., who lives at Attawaugan, and Alfreton A, Tourtel- otte. Saturday was a day of golden glow for Mr. and Mrs. Tourtelotte, whose many friends wish them wears more of ideal companionahip. SURGICAL OPERATION Injured” Foot of Louis Kinsman.
