William S. Verplanck, 57 William Manhattan It was a treat to hear the manner In which you handled the LR.T, and Sinclair situations.

This week you spoke of the agitation at the present time over the Dry Law, which of course seems 11 i 4 It is strange, and a Utile sad, that a family so prominent as to have one of Brooklyn's oldest streets named for it, should die out in obscurity soon after the height of its fame. Furman extending at present from Fulton st. south along the East River, is named for the family of William Furman, who shortly after the Revolution, came from the village of "New Lotts" to live in Brooklyn. Furman his residence on the south side of the Fulton ferry at 5 Fulton st. He was the first county Judge, serving from 1808 to 1823; a village trustee in 1817; a member of the State Legislature in 1827; as well as being president of the Brooklyn Fire Insurance Company and one of the founders of a New st.

(then called Catherine st.) ferry. His son, Gabriel, was responsible for the passing of this branch of the family. Following in his father's footsteps, he became a Judge and in other capacities served the people. In spite of his manv public services, Gabriel said that he always "yearned to pass my life as a literary man never to mingle in political strife." It was this attitude, increasing in iervor, that gradually led him to become a haunter of bookshops and libraries and consequently, something of a recluse. He amassed an amazing amount of historic and sclent ilic material which he put into scrap-books with little semblance of order.

His only published volume, "Notes on Brooklyn," was put together to please a friend and is now a valuable reference to those concerned in the history of Brooklyn. His career and relatives sulfcred through his scholarly existence, the family became poorer and poorer, until when he had nothing with hich to support his sister and aged father, his valuable library and notes were sold at auction. During the cholera summer of 1852, he became an opium addict, and with this and other ills undermining his health, he died in 1854 with few to mourn his passing and that of his branch of the family. $2J5 Yd.
