Governor Green- &alge, of Massachusetts, was suddenly" etrlokenwHU paralysis at Boston ten days before his death. Ha was at once removed to his home at Lowell. I Hon. Frederick T. GreeuhalRa was born at Lancaster, England. July 19, 1842. ' Twelve years later his parents moved to Lowell, Mass., where the young man entered the public schools and won for himself even in his youth a good name as a public speaker. In 1859 he entered Harvard College, and re mained there until the death of his father, when he took upon himself the burdens of carina for the family without having been graduated. During an interval of teaoblntf school for a living be studied law. In 1663 he entered the army, and was connected with the Commissary Department at New Berne, N. C, In 1865 he was admitted to praotico at the bar of Middlesex County, nad three yeara later he began his career 'as a public man, serving in the succeeding two years in tho Common Council of Low ell. Xn 1871 he was eleoted a member of the School Board. Then, in 1880 and 1881, ho was elected Mayor of Lowell, and fol lowed this up by being elected to repre sent his district in Congress in 1888. He was defeated for a second term. Until 1893 he did work for the Republican party without Booking office for himself, and then he was nominated for Governor of Massachusetts, and eleeis- 5fv larjjs-aia-jority. This majority he increased during 7 SOVEBMOB FREDERICK T. GBEENHALGE. the two succeeding campaigns, and at his last election he carried Massachusetts by a larger majority than had been known since the war. Harvard gave him his degree of B. A. In 1870, just the same, and at the last reunion of the class of '63 at Parker's P. T. Green halge was in the chair. He and E. L. Ktiv vens, who died In the Civil War, were tl two most notable debaters in the class. The traditions of the institute of 1870 are filled with bouts which Greenhalgo had with other members of the society. The history ot Governor Greenhalge's ad miaistratW contains some elements of ex ceptional interest, and which served to give it a disttnet'y courageous and disinterested character, but perhaps the most portentous thing in it, in view of what has now hap pened, is the fact that the Governor's en gagements averaged 300 a ynar; they reaohed so high a figure as 330 the first year that he was in office. In addition to bis public extra-official appearances within the commonwealth Governor Greenhalge represented the State at Chattanooga in Sep tember and at Atlanta in November, 1895: he gave an address on John Winthrop before the New England Society at Brooklyn, N. Y., in 1894, having previously delivered a poli tical address before the Lincoln Club at Del monlco's in New York City. N . There is a patbetlo significance in tul kct that the last official act of Governor Green halge was his message to the Legislature on the 24th of February, aonouuclng the death ot ex-Goveuor Bubiuson. Mr. Greenhalge was married 1' 1871 to Isubel Nesmith, whose father, ; onn Ne smith, was Lieutenant-Governor of Massa chusetts in 18G2. He and three children, Frederick B., Harriet Nesmith and Richard Hpaulding. ! Forty-one Tears ia Prison.
