DEATH OF FRANK L. BAKER

Prominent North Attleboro Manufacturer Passes Away After An Illness of Eight Weeks

NORTH ATTLEBORO, Mass., March 26.— Frank L. Baker, president of the Paye & Baker Mfg. Co., died Wednesday at his home on S. Washington St., after an illness of eight weeks’ duration. He was in his 43rd year.

Mr. Baker was born in the city of Providence and after graduating from Brown University purchased the interests of Mr. Simmons in the firm of Simmons & Paye. The following year the name of the firm was changed to Paye & Baker Mfg. Co.

He came to North Attleboro with the firm about 20 years ago and during that period took a great interest in the civic affairs of the town. He was greatly interested in children and served on the school committee for eight years. In addition to his business he was a director of the Manufacturers’ National Bank, an incorporator of the Attleborough Savings Bank, a member of the North Attleborough Chronicle Co., publishers of the Evening Chronicle, and a vestryman of Grace Episcopal Church.

He was greatly beloved by the towns-people because he was fair and just to his fellow men. A widow, three children, his mother and one sister survive.

The funeral services were held Saturday afternoon at his late home. Rev. Geo. E. Osgood was the officiating clergyman. Burial was at Swan Point Cemetery, Providence.
