Danbury News gives the following
pathetic incident regarding one of the old
men of that section: Last Thursday s. N.
Judd of Waterbury visited Danbury. Mr..
Judds extraordinary vitality at the age of
eighty-one years is a source of much COM
ment among his numerous friends in Water
bury. in Danbury and Bethel. Mr.Judd was
born in Danbury, but is a native of Bethel.
Bethel was district in the town of Dsnbury
when Mr.. Judd was born. Mr.. Judd was
eighty-one years old on Thursday.
He went to Bethel on that day after
he had inspected the ruins of the
with himself, is the only survivor Of their heir
branch Of the Judd family. After dinner he
visited Wolfpits district, three miles dis
tant, and walked there being too indepen-
dent to accept the aid of q team. Mr.. Judd
was born in Wolfpits, and he went there to
see the old home. In passing old places
familiar to him when boy, he would stop a
moment or so to give memory chance to
play. It must have been q most interesting
experience to this venerable but extremely
active man, the retrospect in which came
trooping the many forms of those old lang
syne, most of whom have long since passed
came to the place where the old
house stood in which he first saw
daylight he was surprised to see the great
change made since he lived there, but there
were many things in sight with which he
was familiar with long ago. On his walk he
saw three persons of little over his age
the only ones living in the district which he
knew eighty years ago. With them he had
good social time. He then went to the
cemetery where his father and mother are
buried. While looking at the places where
they lay his thoughts must have gone bach
to the boyhood days. The inscription on the
maidstone of his father marked eighty-ont
years. The same on his mothers wal
sighty-one year. He, their son wal
then eighty-one years. This was re-
rare indeed that such an ex'
perience Is recorded. A man on his eighty
frst birthday standing by the graves of hi
father and mother who both died wher
eighty-one years of age. Mr.. Judd has got I
record of health and activity that any mar
can we'll feel proud OF.
