Great Civic Worker Captain Stevens' career is not only outstanding in this section but is a shining example for all generations in _ an 0 Liviec-minded from young manhood, he was part and parcel of- practi- cally every activity designed for the well being of the Town of Hoo sick, Rensselaer County and boun. daries far beyond his own province, With Captain C. w. dy--and others he organized the first mili- tia company here 55 years ago, known then as the 82nd Separate Company, later as Company M, 'Second Regiment and today as First Battalion Headquarters Com- pany 105th Infantry. He was the company's initial first Heutenant and was its commanding officer in the Spanish American War when it was stationed at Tampa, Fla, His interest in military affairs was always keen and he was for years president of the Old Guard, an or. ganization composed of ex-mem. bers of Company M. . A prominent figure among those actively intergsted in keeping alive the Town of Hoosick's past and in the maintenance of its historic spots, he was chairman of the Ben- nington Battlefield Park Commis- cate mold from which the captain was shaped is not duplicated in every generation. A man of many roles, manufacturer, banker, legis- , éh plaged them all with grace and dignity. Probably . his greatest sucéess on Hife's stage,, however, was his capacity tor friendship. And the word \friend\, as applied to the Captain, was a synonym for all the virtues. Any analysis of the Captain's character must begin and end on the basic principle of his innate \goodness\. For the Captain was good; to the very marrow of his bones. With no hard and fast rules governing his daily conduct, he nevértheless walked intimately with charity, unselfishness and honesty. There was no petty meanness in him, and his faith in his fellowman was childlike. His very simplicity, disregarding for the moment his manifold service to his town, county, state and the nation, made of him a personage. A- personage ho may have Q9!!!) 'but he was as natural and as com- fortable in the part as a well brok-. en-in shoe.

Captain Stevens was president of the Noble and Wood Machine Company. - Just prior to the mer- and the Peoples National Bank he was president of the former bank- ing house, and was also at that time a -directer of the Federat Pica serve Bank of New York City. He had 'been a director of the Secur- ity Trust Company and of the Manufacturers' National Bank of Troy. He was a past president of the Tissue Paper Manufacturers' Association of America and a past vice president of the American Pulp and Paper Association. Served in Assembly Serving as State Assemblyman in the New York Legislature from this district in 1904 and 1905, Cap. tain Stevens was long a leading fAigure in Republican politics in Rensselaer County. He held of. fAlce as Chairman of the Town of Hoosick - Republican Committee, and on several octasions was dele- publican conventions. - His word always carried considerable weight in town and county councils of the party. He was a trustee of the Mary McClellan - Hospital, Cambridge. He was also a member of the Sons of the Révolution and a Thirty second Degree Mason. Last year (50-year medal by Van Rensselaer Lodge No. 400, F. & A. M. Cap- tain Stevens' familiarity with the annals of Hoosick from early set- tler days was second to none, and he was regarded as an authority on American Revolutionary battles particularly in relation to the cam- paigns of Burgoyne As president of the Hoosick Falls Historical So- clety, Captain Stevens was custo- dian of many veluable documents and objects pertaining to this sec- tion. His own personal collection is unique. He attended the First Presbyte- fianchurc‘bandwasatmsteeoi | that church. He is survived by his widow, the former Miss Fredreka Wallich of Detroit, Mich, whom he married on February %, 1829, ang with whom he celebrated their Golden Wedding anniversary two years ago.

It was not an uncommon cccurrence for him to sit through long nights of poli- ly for a matter of policy in which he believed, or beating relentless- ly against the claims of a would- ger of the First National Bank pe -candidute whose code he did not consider worthy of confidence. \Captain\ he was to the major- lity, \fawn“ to ethers, and \Cap to & few cholce and close cronies. He came into the title the hard way, and he wore It with fitness. Commanding the 32nd Separajre Company of the Second New York through the Spanish-Ameri- can Whar, he proved his right to the rank in the field. He was father-confessor, - counsellor and comrade to his company; sharing its hardships and heartbreaks; lov- ing it and his job, Any man. capa- ble of commanding a military out. ft in war time without showing a flaw under the terrific nervous ten- sion is a being above other men. But he who manages to retain not only the raspect but the love of his command through the after years, as did the Captain, possesses per- n charactar eyon price. A man of broad and varied inter- ests-he was equally at ease on a trout stream or presiding at a pub- lie function-the Captain was at his best in his own house. Cross- ing its threshold one was instantly at home-'\Friend sit a while and rest\. If one was thirsty, there he was presented with a Masonic | was drink; if . hungry, there was food; if weary, a guest-chamber. Some houses were fouder in their mirth, perbaps, but in none did a deeper happiness reign. To sit on the floor in front of the hearth in that home of a Winter's evening and listen to the Captain spin a yarn of the French | and Indian Wars or the American Revolution -the locale was invariably the Hoosac Valley and the characters were ancestors of families whose names are still known here-was a treat that boys and girls of 'a day that is past will long cherish, Ih his home the Captain -enjoyed youth; he was young with strip- lings, adult with those of his own generation. in frame, hendsoms of face, gentle of spirit, be met each of memmficfmnbecom- ingly.

The week beginning May 18, 1941, will mark the end of a Hoo- sick Falls mercantile enterprise that has been serving people of this area for four generations. This week Jones, Parsons & Com- pany, one of the most highly rep- utable concerns ever to do business in Hoosick Falls, will close its doors and the familiar landmark A tory, carrying with it memories, traditions and legends that Wil‘l long be recalled as epitomizing an era in merchandising that seem- ingly is a thing of the past.

There was no bank th town at the time and the 'often held a considerable volums of money.

At that time the business of Jones, Par- sons & Co, was restricted to the gnocery trade. In 1927, following the death of William C, Jones, his son, Locklyn eS, ecame senior member 0 the firm and has maintained that positjon.
