Messrs. Reed & Barton have secured a lease of the large and magnificent building, No. 11 Union Square, and will fit it up in keeping with the artistic character of their productions. Messrs. B. & W. B. Smith, the well-known show case and cabinet makers, will have charge of the interior decorations of the store; we may, therefore, expect to see one of the handsomest warerooms to be found in this city.

Death of William W. Swan

TAUNTON, Mass., April 4—William W. Swan passed away at his residence on Jefferson St. Tuesday. He was one of the earliest of the silver and britannia workers to come to the Reed & Barton shops after their establishment, and served in both branches of the Municipal Council and earned in his long life the respect and regard of all who knew him. He would have been 83 years of age the 27th of this month.

Mr. Swan was born in New Canaan, Conn., April 27, 1830. He learned the silver and britannia trade when a youth, working for a time in the old Gleason Britannia Works in Dorchester, Mass., before coming to Taunton, with almost the first arrivals of the skilled help, for the Reed & Barton factory in 1856. He was employed at these shops for more than 40 years and retired to go into other business.

He was a member of the Knights of Pythias, the Taunton Veteran Firemen’s Association and the Firemen’s Relief Association.

He is survived by his widow and one son, Harry W. Swan, of this city.

The funeral services were held from his residence Friday afternoon at 3 P. M.
