At one time, about 1860, Tegetmeier was secretary of a bee-keeping society, but appears never to have been con- nected with the British Bee-Keepers' Association. Geo. W. Bullamore. Death of D. H. Coggshall.—The bee- keepers form a closely related brother- hood, and take much interest in one another's affairs. This is the more true of those in the public eye. Mr. David H. Coggshall, of Groton, N. Y., died suddenly in Sayre, while about to take a connecting train for Florida. Mr. Coggshall was born Dec. 1, 1847, in Groton, in which township he made his home all his life. On Feb. 24, 1869, he was married to Clarinda F. Smith, also of The Late D. H. Coggshall. .; Three children were born to them, two of whom reached adult years, Mrs. H. J. Blanchard, of Groton, and L. L. Coggshall, of Locke. It was as an apiarist Mr. Coggshall was best known. He became inter- ested in bee-culture in 1861, when he was given a swarm of bees by his grandfather, William Smith. He began a series of experiments with them, and was very successful. He branched out in the business, and at one time had about 800 colonies. He was the first producer and shipper of honey in this part of the State. Mr. Coggshall bought a place in Stuart, Fla., about eight years ago, and had been there every winter since. He took a great deal of pride in the place, and built a house in the center of the three lots
