Mr. Green was born in London, England, and came here with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Nathan Green, at the age of eight years and had resided in St. John for the last sixty years. He was associated with his father in business during his youth, but for the last thirty-six years conducted a well-known business of his own in the city. Of a particularly pleasant disposition, Mr. Green gathered about him a large circle of friends, who spoke highly always of his uprightness and honesty. He was a member of the Masonic fraternity since the age of twenty-one and was also identified with the Independent Order of Oddfellows. Mr. Green was a good citizen. His brisk business manner won him friends in his commercial life and his kindly nature and devotion to all that was good in home life made him liked and respected by all. Mr. Green is survived by his wife, two sons and two daughters. The sons are S. Hart Green of Winnipeg, and Harry C.Green, of this city. Mrs. I. A Wyner of New York, and Miss Alice M. Green of St. John, are the daughters. The sympathy of the community will be extended to Mrs. Green and family in their sad bereavement. The funeral arrangements have not yet been completed.
