Mr. Hayes’ family were among the earliest settlers in the Adirondacks. He was one of the most popular of the old time guides when this vicinity was almost an unbroken wilderness and in the many years of his life had seen many changes as the country developed in a rapid manner. Mr. Hayes was of a pleasant genial disposition and had a wide circle who will miss his passing. He was a member and faithfully attendant of the Episcopal church as long as his health permitted. The burial was in Brookside cemetery.
