PEDLAR AND GENTLEMAN.
BEAUTIFYING A TOWN.
The Enniskillen Urban Council has decided to set up a memorial tablet to a Manchester pedlar. The mover of the resolution thought some people might despise the pedlar's calling, but declared that this particular pedlar was a gentleman of culture and education, and a man of noble character. Born at Manchester, Mr. A. H. Richards spent most of his life at Enniskillen till he retired to a cottage he had-bought by the sea at Donegal. At one time he acted as temporary town clerk, and when he died he was found to have left a quarter of his estate for, beautifying the town.
