In Memoriam HERBERT A. STANLY 1870 - 1946 Born in Hills Grove, Rhode Island, November 10, 1870 Died in Carver, December 5, 1946
He attended the public schools in Carver and was a life long resident of this town.
As a young man he worked as a melter in the old Ellis Foundry and also early became identified with the cranberry business and as a side line he started a small greenhouse which he gradually extended until it became one of the most extensive in this vicinity.
Herbert was of a progressive nature having been one of the first in town to own an automobile and the first to light his premises with electricity, having a private electric plant of his own. He was one of the early users of running water in his house by the aid of a windmill for power. As automatic oil heating plants came into use he was one of the first to install one in his home. Later he was also the first and perhaps the only one up to this time to provide his home with an air conditioning system.
Travelling was a pleasure to him and he never lost an opportunity to roam around his own country.
He was a charter member of South Carver Grange and served as its secretary for many years as well as treasurer of Sippican Pomona Grange.
His wife, Arethusa, died several years ago and he survived his only daughter, Julia May, by a few months.
Herbert took much interest in civil affairs of this town and served on the Boards of Selectmen, Public Health and Welfare from 1912 to 1936 with credit to himself and his town. He was a man of definite opinions and was not afraid to defend them, but at the same time bearing no ill feeling toward those who differed with him.
Mr. Stanly was a good citizen and a fine neighbor and will be greatly missed by all who knew him.
