(P. 987.) William R.'^ Humphrey (40) has been always prominently associated with the
social and industrial progress of his native place. A gentleman of fine taste and reserved habits,
he has felt unwilling to place a sketch of his life and public services at the disposal of the editor
of this genealogy; and we must, therefore, content ourselves with a brief tribute to his worth and
social position. For many years he has been identified with the railroad interests of his city, and,
indeed, of the country; and in all the relations of life has proven himself an esteemed citizen and
most worthy member of society.
