The intelligence was received here yes- terday with genuine sadness that Hon. William HI. Cook, the editor of the Mil- ford Daily Journal, had passed away in Milford on Sunday of cancer of the cheek. His last work upon lus paper was done July 12. He had been sick but a com- paratively short time and the fatal na- ture of his malady was known to but few. lu him Milford has lost one of her most upright, conscientious citizens, Massa- chusetts has lust one of her far-sighted, clear-beaded, high-principled statesmen, the Republican party is bereft of a noted leader, a wise counsellor and a ready and forceful speaker, and the press of New England monrus one of its foremost rep- resentatives. He had made a name for the Milford Journal second to none of the provincial papers of the state, and his editorial column was always teeming with truths which should seek out and correct error, enthrone justice and aid the cause of right. He knew bo other comse. Journalism has uo such men to spare, and his luss will long he felt in Dewajper circles. He was born in Ben- nington. Vt., and was in Ins fifty- eighth year. A widow survives him. The funeral was held today at 2 o'clock from his late residence.
