"T HERE is always," says a great philosopher, "a soul of truth in things erroneous," and this dictum we shall find to be true even if we turn to some of those things against which we, as a people, feel the strongest prejudice, those things which our very independent national existence is a protest against. Such, for instance, as the almost universal in- stinct for aristocracy. For, if the seeming paradox may be forgiven, there is nothing more popular than aristocracy, nothing more truly democratic in its essence. As a matter of fact, it is not against aris- tocracy that democracy is a revolt, but merely against certain types of it which have been proven valueless. Crude peoples have crude criteria and the aristocracies of past epochs have many of them rested on purely artificial bases, such as descent from father to son and others equally unreasonable. It is only in a democracy that the true aristocracy can flourish, the aristoc- racy of merit, to which every man has an equal opportunity of entrance according to the ability he displays. It is the presence of such an aristoc- racy here, the freedom with which all men can reach to the top of the ladder of success, that is the best assurance that we can have that democracy pre- vails in our midst. For it is inevitable that men should do honor to those whom they regard as especially worthy and if their choice falls freely upon any such as may appear, high or low, rich or poor, without distinction of color, creed or race, then we may be confident that we are still true followers of freedom. There are, of course, many striking examples of this thing in the course of American history, but it is better to confine one's attention to less striking cases, for great genius has a way of breaking through all con- ventions and asserting itself and it is only where the less extreme degrees of talent also rise to their deserts that the proposition is truly illustrated. A Benjamin Franklin, an Abraham Lincoln, would have made themselves felt under the strictest tyranny, but when we can each one of us number men in our own acquaintance who have climbed no little way on the ladder of success we may be sure that the social conditions are at base sound. We have but to glance about us to observe many such examples and none could be more to the point than the life and career of John Richard Meehan, the gentleman whose name heads this brief appreciation, and whose death at Providence, Rhode Island, on February 2, 1910, after a lifelong residence there. was felt as a loss to the community.
John Richard Meehan was born at Providence, July 21, 1862, a son of Daniel and Ann (McManamy) Meehan, old and highly respected residents of the city, where Mr. Meehan, Sr., was engaged in business as a contract- ing mason. The son, John Richard Meehan, grew up to manhood in his native city and there received the early portion of his education in the local public schools. He then attended the La Salle Academy and proved himself an apt student. Indeed, Mr. Meehan was one of those men who is naturally and by preference a student, with a taste for the scholar's life, and although

circumstances and another side of his versatile nature led him into a more active sphere, yet it would have done no violence to his nature had he fol- lowed a more studious path. As it was he never felt his education to be complete and studied much in later life, the books from which he learned being especially his fellowmen. He was gifted with that keen insight into the kernel of things that fits a man to be a successful pupil in the great school of experience and he seemed to absorb all that another had to com- municate in the way of information and store it up in his retentive brain for future use whether in the cause of pleasure or to more substantial end. Upon leaving school he turned his attention to the mastering of some useful trade and chose that of machinist, towards which he felt a strong natural bias. He secured employment in the large machine shop of Brown & Sharpe in Providence, where he became an expert in his line and was rapidly pro- moted. When he had advanced to a certain degree of skill and familiarity with the situation he became associated with this large concern on a basis then much in vogue, employing a number of hands and taking contracts from the company. The work that he turned out under this system was of a very high order and he is still remembered in this connection by other old employees of Brown & Sharpe. Mr. Mechan achieved success in this line and he kept up the work for a number of years until its confining character began to tell upon his health. Perceiving these ill effects in time, he aban- doned his craft and after an interval of rest engaged in business on his own account with an office on West Park street. He was very successful in this enterprise, which served him, however, more as an introduction into the real estate field than in any other way. He continued in the mercantile line until within about six inonths of his death, nevertheless, and then sold out and retired. He began his investments in real estate on a comparatively small scale and gradually increased them. He dealt principally in residential property, and confined his attentions largely to his own home region on West Park street, where his handsome residence stood. In this, as in all other matters, he displayed a great deal of business foresight and his invest- ments were uniformly most successful.
On November 17, 1890, Mr. Meehan was united in marriage with Flor- ence T. McCool, a daughter of Patrick and Margaret (White) McCool, and a member of an old Maine family. Mr. and Mrs. Meehan had no children, but the closeness of their comradeship was such that it was a common remark among their friends that they made up to one another what they lost in this respect. Certainly their married life was an ideal one and they were in- separable companions. Excepting when business laid its demands, not to be denied, upon him, Mr. Meehan was at his wife's side, and it was there in his own home that his chief happiness was found. He called her affectionately his "pal," and he made the utmost efforts for her happiness, there was noth- ing that he could do which was too good for her and his last thought before his death was for her comfort. Mr. Meehan was keenly interested in politics, especially in the local situation, and was closely allied to the Democratic organization in the city. He was recognized as one of the influential factors in the party's strength in the city, yet he was totally without ambition for political preferment of public office and consistently declined to accept any

such. Mr. Meehan was in faith a Catholic and a member, as is Mrs. Meehan, of St. Patrick's Roman Catholic Church in Providence. Religion played an important part in his life and it was his constant endeavor to translate the tenets of his church into terms of everyday conduct.
John Richard Meehan was without doubt an unusually strong personal- ity and was an influence wherever he went upon all that he came in contact with. His tastes were normal, wholesome ones and such as are gratified to one's advantage rather than the reverse. He was fond of outdoor life and all that was connected with it, and had an especial love of horses. He was what his friends called a good judge of horse flesh and generally owned at least one excellent driving horse for his pleasure. Another of his tastes was for travel and this he indulged largely, he and Mrs. Meehan making trips to various parts of this country, of which there were comparatively few in- teresting parts that they had not seen. The success that he achieved was entirely due to his own efforts, to his strict application to business in youth and his indefatigable patience and industry. He won an enviable and well- deserved reputation among his business associates for the most complete integrity in all his dealings and his name well merits the high place that it holds among the representative business men of his city. His memory is honored in the handsome stained glass window in St. Patrick's Church, but it requires no reminder to keep it green in the hearts of those who were for- tunate enough to call him friend.

Dennis Florence AuCarthy
D ENNIS FLORENCE MCCARTHY, born in Kilkenny, Ire- land, June 4, 1840, died in. Providence, Rhode Island, Febru- ary 18, 1914, son of Owen and Mary (Colby) McCarthy. Owen McCarthy, a coachman, came to Providence direct from Ireland in 1848, and there resided until his death. His children were: Dennis F., James, Margaret, Patrick, Bridget and John.
Dennis F. McCarthy was eight years of age when brought by his par- ents to Providence, and there he obtained a good education in the public schools although from the age of twelve his attendance was at night school. At the age of twelve he began working in a screw factory on Eddy street, continuing until he was sixteen, then entering railroad employ. He quali- fied for the position of engineer when twenty-two years of age, his railroad service covering a period of thirty years. He resided in Providence until his marriage, then in Willimantic for twenty-two years, afterward return- ing to Providence. In 1885, after President Cleveland's inauguration, he was appointed inspector of customs at the port of Boston, and later was transferred to Portland, Maine, in the same capacity. In the meantime his son, Eugene J. McCarthy, had established in Providence as an undertaker and funeral director under the firm name of Eugene J. McCarthy. After resigning from the customs service, the father formed a partnership with the son and as D. F. McCarthy & Son, they conducted a very successful busi- ness until the death of Eugene J. McCarthy in October, 1899. From that time until his death Dennis F. McCarthy continued the business, his wife and daughter yet retaining an interest, the business being conducted by another of his sons, Joseph Francis John McCarthy.
Mr. McCarthy was a Democrat in politics; served on the school board for twelve years; a member of the Board of Aldermen from the Third Ward for ten years; was chairman of the Board of Police Commissioners for five years and was one of the influential men of his party. He was a prominent member of the Brotherhood of Railroad Engineers, was chief of the Rhode Island division for seven years, was frequently a delegate to the conventions of the Brotherhood, representing his division on one occasion at a conven- tion held in San Francisco. He was an ardent worker for the cause of tem- perance and accomplished a great deal for the cause in the New England States. He was a member of the Knights of Columbus, joining first at Wil- limantic, later was one of the organizers of Tyler Council in Providence, and at the time of his death was the oldest member of that council. He was a self-educated man, and by study at night and a wide course of reading he made himself very well informed. He was a member of the Roman Catholic church, quiet in his tastes and very fond of his home.
Mr. McCarthy married, May '15, 1864, Elizabeth G. Cantwell, born at Charlotte Town, Prince Edward Island, Canada, who survives him, a resi- dent of Providence. She is a daughter of Michael and Elizabeth (East)

Reil John MacKean
T HE MacLEANS for centuries have held a conspicuous place in Scottish history, for independence of bearing and dis- interested loyalty. The clan rapidly grew in influence and power until it reached its zenith, at which time, during the reign of James VI., it was accounted the most powerful of any in the Hebrides. The founder of the clan Maclean was Gilleain Na Tuaighe, or "Gilleain of the Battle-ax," who lived in Argyleshire. The MacLeans can tra'ce their origin with precision to Old Dougall of Scone, who must have flourished about the year 1100, and has been described as an influential, just and venerable man. From the highlands of Scotland to Nova Scotia, Canada, came Donald and Lucy (Beaton) MacLean, settling at Sidney Mines, where their son, Neil John MacLean, was born June 28, 1845. Until he was twelve years old he attended public school at Sidney Mines, completing his education in Hali- fax, his parents moving to that city in 1857. His youth was spent in Hali- fax, but when a young man he came to the United States and located in New York City, where he learned the trade of typesetter and became proficient in the printer's art. Later he spent several years in Boston with the R. K. Potter Printing Company, becoming an expert typesetter and master printer with a wide reputation in the trade. In 1872 he accepted an offer from the E. L. Freeman Company, of Providence and Pawtucket, State printers, the same year made Pawtucket his home and there resided until his death. Shortly after coming to Pawtucket he was made foreman of the book department and for many years had sole charge of that important branch of the company's business. He remained with the E. L. Freeman Company until 1910, when failing health compelled him to sever the con- nection which had existed for thirty-eight years. He was very popular with the men under his charge and possessed the unbounded confidence and respect of those above him in rank. His loyalty to the company and his efficiency as manager of the book department is best expressed in the letter sent him by the president and treasurer of the company upon receipt of his resignation.
MR. NEIL J. MACLEAN :
CENTRAL FALLS, R. I., April 8, 1910.
My Dear Sir :-
In accepting your resignation as foreman of our book department, I do not think it necessary to assure you that such action is taken with deep regret. The many years faithful service you have given this company have undoubtedly helped much toward its reputation and success, and in all these years you have consistently exem- plified the old fashioned ideas of fidelity to your employer, pride in his success, and loyalty to his interests, that are not -- to say the least-especially noticeable in the present generation. I am very sorry to part with you and hope that your remaining years may bring you the rest and happiness that your past efforts and upright life entitle you to. I thank you not only in my own name, but also in that of my father and brother, who, as you know, always had the warmest esteem for you as an employe and as a man.
Sincerely yours,
JOSEPH W. FREEMAN,
Treasurer.
