CALEB BARTON DEAD.

The subject of this sketch was born
in Bloomsburg, August 80, 1872, a
son of Isaiah Barton, and died at his
home on Second Street on Wednes-
day morning, November 27, about
half past nine o'clock, aged SO years
and three months. Because of great
age and his prominence in local af-
fairs and in church work, he was one
of the best known residents in Blooms
burg. He was especially distinguished
for his upright and fair dealing, and
his christian character, and as a con-
sequence won and retained the esteem
of all who had the pleasure of his ac-
quaintance. He was a farmer by oc-
cupation and resided on his farm
below town until he retired about
twenty years ago and moved to
Bloomsbury. For some years he has
been the sole owner of the "white u
or Barton Mill at the mouth of Hem
lock Creek.
In 1896 he married Sarah, a
daughter of Peter Rupert. She died
in 1854 and in 1862 he married
Delilah Creveling, who was his faith
ful companion in life until she passed
from earth on the 26th of September.
Mr.. Barton for many years was one
of the most active and influential
members Of the Bloomsbury Metho.
dist Episcopal Church. He was class
leader until he asked to be relieved
on account Of advancing years but he
retained his place as a trustee and
was the president of the board at the
time of his death. Five children
survive,-Evaline, wife of DR.. McRey-
nolds, Thomas J., Catharine B., wife
of Alfred Ale, Emma B., widow Of
John Moore, and Anna B. wife Of
