He was also president of the Washington Couuty association, an auxiliary to the state association. In this capacity he held institutes and gave addresses through- out the coynty. During the period of his residence in Westerly he was a member of the Séventh Day Baptist Missionary scciety and its secretary. He was also an examiner for the Westerly assembly district of the state normal school at Providence. These various services were faithfully and acceptably rendered; but while making heavy drafts upon his time and energy seldom, If ever, did they take the pas- tor from his stated church dutles, which he always sacredly held in the highest place.

Besioged With Scores of Many by Telegraph. New York, Nov. 10.—Np word of the Ancona came over the cables ‘from Rome today to her general agents here. Officially, they had not even been ad- viseq that she had salled from Naples, The scores of inquiries, many by tele- graph from out of town, the agents had to réply that they were l«bnlutoly without advices. After the better par day of walting, Wi Hartfield, of the firm representing the Ancona's owners, besought the co-operation of the It: consul-general herc in ob- taining facts apparently withheld by Italian censors. The consul- G. Fara Forni, transmitted Mr. Hart- fleld's request, with an endorsement, by telegraph to the Italian ambassador at Washington. Late today a reply from Washington stated that an ef- fort wouXl be made at onCe to ascer- tain the details of the sinking. / Basing their assumption upon a careful study of the passenger list of the vessels which reached here during August, September aif October from Italian the And 's agents were reasonably certain that the vessel had a nllmh!!r of Americans on board, but that the bulk of her passénger list was eomposed of Italians and refugees from the near-eastern theatre of war. Every liner sailing from the Mediterranean during the last three months for this port had a number of Americans in her Exbins. !ln”om case, rex m:apu e ceptional, 30 per cent. of assen- 3‘ were citizens of the United States.
