Obituary

NEW HAVEN

Andrew G, Squier, whose death has been noted in the Free Press, deserves more than a passing notice. Mr. Squier was 82 years of age and had passed nearly his whole life in town. He was a farmer and for many years a successful breeder of fine horses. He was a son of Alvin Squier, who lived to be 90 years of age and of a family of ten children, but three remain, E. H. Squier and Mrs. Socrates Palmer of New Haven and Dr. Lucius Squier of Wisconsin. Mr. Squier was twice married. His first wife was Martha Wheeler, by whom he had three children, Mrs. Sarah Phillips of Nyack, N. Y., Mrs. Elizabeth Prindle of Brandon and Dr. William Squier of Los Angeles, Cal. His second wife was Mary Sturtevant. They had one daughter, Tessie Squier Jordan, who died a few years since. Mr. Squier was a veteran of the Civil War and it was a fitting tribute that the stars and stripes should be placed about his coffin. Mr. Squier had been for many years a member of the Congregational Church, and was a man of many admirable qualities; a man who strove to be a worthy man and an upright citizen.
