DEATH OF ASA A. Spear
Native of Amherst and Well-known New York Lawyer Dies at His home in
Brooklyn, N.Y.
Asa A. Spear, 74, a well-known
lawyer and a native of Amherst, died Thursday morning at his residence 269 New
York Avenue, Brooklyn, N.Y., of heart trouble.
Mr. Spear was one of the best-known citizens of Brooklyn, having lived
there since 1870. He was for 44 years a
member of the Puritan Congregational Church, at Mercy and Lafayette Avenues,
and was president of the board of trustees for most of that time. When the Puritan church merged with the
Tompkins avenue Church, Mr. Spear went to Central Church, where he lie was
received into membership a week ago Sunday, Mr. Spear had been in the practice
of the law in New York City for more than 40 years.
Mr. Spear was bornin Amherst,
Mass., in 1841, and had just passed his 74th birthday. He was
married in Massachusetts and went at once to Brooklyn. He is survived by his widow, Mrs. Caroline
Spear; one son Clarence A. Spear, and one grandchild. The funeral arrangements have not been
completed. Mr. Spear took a deep
interest in the Congregational home for the aged in Brooklyn and was
instrumental in the purchase of the plot of ground 225 by 257, on Linden
avenue, Flat-Bush upon which the new building is to be erected. He formulated the plan for the raising of the
fund with which to erect the building and was the treasurer of the home since
inception. He was active in all
denominational affairs, always attended the meetings of the organizations
connect with the welfare of the denomination, and his counsel and advice were
eagerly sought. He was interested in the work of church extension and
missionary caterprises.
As a sophomore at the Amherst
college he laid down his books took up the sword and commanded after mortal
wound of its captain, his company of Western Massachusetts comrades in the
Withering unit successful siege of Port Hudson which Grant’s a littler earlier
capture of Vicksburg, opened the Mississippi and divided the Confederacy. The profession of law in which, after Amherst
and Columbia degrees, he passed his entire life was congenial to and his
practices he added a sense of equity, Charity and helpfulness, so that to the
Client he was as much friend as counselor.
