Death: 21 Jan 1908 (aged 72)
Burial: King and Williams Cemetery, Raynham, Bristol County, Massachusetts, USA
Memorial #: 83141039
Bio:
The sad news of the death of Mrs. Sophia Kinney Carr Carpenter at her home in Attleboro, Mass., on the 21st inst. was received here last week. Deceased has spent several winters in Crescent City, where her son, Mr. George F. Carpenter, owns a winter home - the old Tibbetts place. She was a popular lady here, and her old friends are saddened by her death.
The following obituary notice appeared in the Attleboro Sun of the 22nd inst.:
"Mrs. Sophia K. Carpenter died last night at her residence, 56 Peck St. She had been a resident of Attleboro for 25 years. She was a native of North Easton, Mass., where her early life was passed. Afterwards her parents removed to South Raynham where she married William H. Carpenter of Taunton. Her husband was well known for long service in the 22nd and 58th Mass. regiments during the civil war. Mr. Carpenter died in 1877 at Taunton and after continuing her residence there for several years, his widow came with her sons to reside in Attleboro, residing for many years on Peck St.
"The deceased is survived by a sister in Raynham and by another sister, Mrs. Mary L. Hale of Peck St., and by three sons: George F. Carpenter of Attleboro, for many years in business in Pawtucket; Thomas S. Carpenter of the Horton, Angell Company, and Harry E. Carpenter, a well-known insurance man and formerly an assessor.
"Mrs. Carpenter was of a quiet and domestic disposition and was beloved by her friends and acquaintances. Much of the time during her later years, she was a sufferer from ill health, but until recently she was able to be about and to attend to her domestic duties, in which she took the deepest interest. She devoted her leisure time to the pleasant pastime of painting landscapes in oil. She met with much success and painted a number of very creditable works of this nature."
The funeral will be held from her late residence on Thursday afternoon at 2 o'clock. (Palatka News Obituary dtd Friday, 31 Jan 1908.)Family Members

In many of these bodies he has held high office and last year was elected Eminent Commander of St. John's Commandery. In this position he received the various commanderies from different parts of the country wliich stopped in this city on their way to and returning from the triennial conclave of Knights Templar in Boston in August of last year. Some months ago, Judge Carpenter with his most intimate associates, Judge Eugene F. Warner and attorney Walter B.Vincent, planned to take a vacation trip through Europe during the summer. They left here July 9, and all indications pointed to a most pleasant experience. Information of the sad ending of the journey was received with general sorrow throughout the city Friday, for Judge Carpenter was widely known and highly regarded for his genial person- ality and kindly ways. Judge Carpenter was a prominent churchman, being a member of St. John's church. He was also one of the founders of the Churchman's club of this city.'" A copy of a letter, by Judge P. E. Tillinghast of Providence, R. I., addressed to the chairman of a meeting of a full bench of U. S. circuit court of appeals on the life and character of the late Judge Carpenter : " Providenxe, Oct. 22. 1896. Hon. Charles E. Gorman, Chairman, etc.: Dear Sir: — As I shall be unable to attend the bar meeting to be held in honor of the memory of the late Hon. George M. Carpenter, Judge of the United States district court, for the district of Rhode Island, I desire to express througli you my high appreciation of the character and ability of the deceased. While at the bar I looked upon him as a remarkably well read, progressive and thoroughly equipped lawyer, and after his elevation to the bench of the state supreme court, I considered him peculiarly well qualified for the discharge of the high trust committed to him. Judge Carpenter was eminently a self-poised man. He thought out the problems of law, as well as the problems of life, for himself, using other men's thoughts, not as a guide, but simply as. an aid in his own processes, so that when he reached a conclusion it was essentially his own, and having thus reached it, he was exceedingly confident as to its correctness. In fact, I think he seldom had any misgivings with regard to the correctness of his conclusions. He had a very logical mind, clear and sharp-cut, a mind thoroughly trained and disciplined to accurate and even mathematically exact methods of thinking, and he felt sure it could be safely trusted and relied on to do good work. He was a very methodical man. Indeed, I have never known one more thoroughly so than he. While at the bar, he adopted and carried out a system of work in his office which enabled him at a moment's notice to put his hand upon any paper pertaining to any case he ever had under his control. He was thus enabled to work with the least possible friction, and to instantly com- mand the aid of everything in his office relating to the matter immediately before him. His system was so complete in all its details, that to a stranger to the method, it seemed intricate and cumbersome : but to him it was as simple as the alphabet, and instead of being an annoy- ance, was a pleasure. He was a man of much and varied learning. For he was not only a profound lawyer, but a man of large literary attainments as well. Possessed of an analytical mind, he readily took in and comprehended the pith of whatever he read, and made it his own. He read much, and he read well. He was always abreast of the best thought of the times, and in fact was himself a leader in that thought. He had a ready pen and a pure taste, which coupled with great facility of expression and a vigor- ous, manly style, made him a writer of no mean proportions. He would doubtless have taken high rank as an editor or author, had he chosen the profession of letters instead of that of the law. He had almost a passion for good books, and was always at home in discussing tiieir merits. No. 7574 ; Family 1425. 46 722 CARPENTER MEMORIAL. Judge Carpenter was a most genial and companionable man with his associates, when on the bench of the supreme court of this state. Never an unkind word or look from him marred the harmony or disturbed the judicial dignity of that body. Moreover, his knowledge of the law and of the great underlying principles on which it was based, coupled with a rare capacity for applying those principles to the particular case in hand, made him a most useful and efficient judge. The only criticism 1 would make of him, and I fear it would be almost presumptuous on my part even to suggest any criticism whatsoever, is that he was sometimes too hasty in his rulings at nisi prius, and perhaps not always sufficiently considerate of the feelings and rights of counsel. But his mind worked quickly, and his first impressions, though sometimes at fault, were usually correct. He was a ready and interesting speaker, knowing how " to think on his feet," and having a good command of wholesome and vigorous English. His style was deliberate and unimpassioned, his language was accurate and carefully chosen, and he always caused his hearers to feel that he had something to say, and knew how to say it. I look upon this sudden and seemingly untimely taking ofi as a great loss, not only to the members of the profession of the law, which profession he greatly adorned and dignified, but also to the bench, and to the state at large as well. Indeed, for some time past I had looked upon him as a rising judge, and had hoped that the time might come when he would occupy a higher position even, on the bench, than that to which he had been called, fully believing that he wascompetent for, and would do honor to, any judicial position in the gift of the government. But, though his sun went down at noon, and though he was cut off in the strength of his vigorous manhood, and in the midst of his usefulness, who shall say that he did not fully accomplish what should be the great aim and purpose of every life, namely, that of adding something to the sum total of human happiness, and of making the world better by having lived therein? Very truly yours, P. E. TiLLlXGHAST." 7575. L Edmund J. was b. Oct. 16, 1845; m. Lydia Etta Snow, Nov. 12, 1873, (1583) second daughter of Alpheus J. Snow of Providence and w^as b. Nov. 21, 1851.
