He had been engaged in the manufacture of pails for many years and was one of the largest and best-known manufacturers in New England. He was senior member of the firm of Woodbury & Howard furniture dealers and was director in two banks. Willard N. Ripley, 52, was found dead in his bed in his room in a hotel at Lowell, Mass., last week Tuesday. A small bottle from which the label had been removed, was found near him and it is supposed that he committed suicide, as he had been despondent because of ill health. His brother, Henry, of Worcester, who was summoned, identified the body and it was taken to Winchester, N. H., his native town, for burial, on Friday. Mr. Ripley is survived by a wife and son who live in Vernon, and by a daughter in Claremont, N. H. He also leaves five brothers and four sisters.
