Death of Elbridge Gurney
Elbridge Gurney, aged 50 years, died at his residence at Abingdon, Mass., on the 30th of last month. Deceased was one of the most extensive boot and shoe manufacturers of New England. His business relations extended throughout the entire Western country. He had large branch establishments in the principal cities of this territory. The system regulating this extended business has been admirable, showing a clear conception in the head, and adding another proof to the old proverb that policy is best when backed by honesty and fair dealing.
Though his home was far away in New England, we look upon this visitation of Providence as a loss to be deplored as if the deceased was one of us, making such a void as it does in our business circles.
Peace to his ashes.
