DEATH OF Mr.. A. A. ALLEN.
One of Manchester's Old Citizens Dies at
the Age of Eighty-Throe.

Mr.. A. A. Allen, who was perhaps the
oldest resident of Manchester, died in that
city Yesterday afternoon at 4:40 O'Clock AZ the
home of his sister, Mrs. S. II. Garnett, on Deca-
tur street, between Sixth and Seventh. Deceased
had been in feeble health for several years.
Mr. Allen had lived In Manchester since his
youth or early manhood, and was one OF her
most esteemed and respected citizens. lie was
eighty-three years OF age, and was born In Buck
ingham county, and, in his youthful days, often
heard John Randolph when that eccentric Nir-
ginian was stumping that district for Congress
and was In the zenith OF his fame. Mr.. Allen, to
his friends, frequently alluded 20 the versatility
and eloquence of John Randolph, whose voice,
he once jocularly said, "could almost penetrate
plank" GGnl Gsor. Mr. Allen managed the estate of
Mrs Mayo, part of which was Mayos bridge.
He frequently had large trusts committed 70 his
care, and always managed affairs placed to his
keeping admirably.
Deceased was one OF the oldest members Of
Manchester Lodge of Masons, and was Initiated
February, 1850. He neld the office OF Commis-
sioner Of the Revenue during the war, and was
repeatedly reelected 10 the same ONCE untll a
few years ago, when falling health forced him 10
retire.
A few months ago he had severe spell OF SICK
ness and II was thought then that he conld not
get well. He rallied, however, and was able 70
walk about until few days ago, when ne was
again taken ILL., He was man OF hno pnyslque
and had enjoyed splendid health nearly oil his
life. .,. o.
nett and Mrs w. A. Chambers, OF Lynchburg.
Twoof his brothers died many years ago. His
mother died at a ripe old age In April, 1850, ana
on the day that Sherman's army arrived IN Man
chester. She was only fifteen years older than
her son.
