NEW YORK June 30 1904EDITOR NEWS When I picked up

last copy of the NEWS and read at the topof the first page the following THEBOURBON NEWS is essentially a paper forthe people Pure in tone it is a fit companion in the family circle I moreforcibly impressed with the noble characterof the one who wrote it the late GeorgeD Mitchell In every sense of the wordhe was a fit companion in the familycircle It was my good fortune to be

associated him for the pastthirty years To me he was more of acompanion I more than anyone elsewas better enabled to know his trueacter When I say that a more noblehonest and uprightever lived than George Mitchell I know Ispeak the truth He was a man whom itwas good to friend His wholeconduct was such as to inspire those whoassociated with him to be better in theirdaily walks of life How true in yourobituary of him was the phrase he neverknqwingly did a wrong to anyone Almost childlike in his nature he could seeno wrong in others He always believedin looking on the bright side of life andalthough during the last few years of hislife he a constant sufferer hecomplained He was my guest NewYork only a few short weeks ago soilalthough he was then suffering great painat all times he was cheerful and everready to joke

Former Parisian James R McCannwho is my neighbor says in all hislife he never knew a more friendthan George They were alsochildhood play mates

When the day of judgment andwe are all brought before the judgmentthrone the Recording ngel will have fewblack marks in the J Book of Lifemy departed friend

While I will miss him greatly in theshort space of time allotted to me herestill when the great reunion comes itbe a happy one R S P
