Obituary |
say 9 Jul 1945 |
- According to his obituary, "Practically all his life, Mr. Whitney devoted his attention to lumbering in the immediate vicinity but for the most part in Richmond. He owned large tracts of land for many years in the vicinity of Sandy Lake, where he had a cottage and where each summer the family spent its vacations. Mr. Whitney typified the New England application to hard work, business integrity and good will. He was as honest as the day was long, devoted to his family and a man of excellent habits. He served the town as selectman for one term. His hobby was baseball and even to the last days of his life evinced great interest in the national game."
