.R. Study.
In the passing of our esteemed associate, Ezekiel R, Studley, we, the Town Officers, deeply feel the loss we have sustained and know that every citizen of the town joins with us in this, our last tribute, to one who has so faithfully served the town for so many consecutive years.
The watchword of his life was "Service" and he has given the unstinted service of his best years for the Town of his adoption.
We shall miss his kindly presence from among us, but a feeling of thankfulness that he has been permitted to remain so long with us, and the pleasant memories of his long and useful life, survive as an inspiration to us and to all who knew him.
