NEUROLOGY.
nENRY norrEcKER AppLEroN.


This community was startled by the an
nouncement of the death of Mr.. Henry II.
| Appleton at his residence on Cass street on
Friday evening at about $50 o'clock. But
few knew be was seriously i'll. Mr.. Apple
ton has been in poor health for several years
and some months ago suffered from astroke
Of paralysis which affected one side but left
his mind as bright and active as it ever was.
| He took cold and it developed into pneu-
monia which he was not strong enough to
combat.
Mr. Appleton was born near Odessa on
January IA, 1929, and he has resided in this
community all his life, having the respect
and esteem of all who have known him.
During his early life, when he had good
health, he was extensively engaged in farm
| ing. being large grower of peaches. and
he has been considered an authority on
peach culture. He was educated at PEN
nigton Seminary. being blessed with clear
mind and a remarkable memory. He was
a close reasoner and his friends often sought
his advice. He was always kind and gentle,
thoughtful of the comfort of others. and
fond of the quietude of the home fireside
where his good qualities shone to the best
advantage.
In politics he was originally a Whig and
then Republican of firm convictions. He
was very liberal man. however, beliey ing
that could conscientiously differ from hirns
In the early 6os he served in the General
Assembly, the father of Senator Higgins
being member at the same time. He never
sought Office, having no taste for the work
of the politician that leads to office. He
was the close friend and the campanion of
Hon. N. B. Smithers in his political ton rs
through the State. Mr.. Smithers valued
his advice, political and otherwise, and they
often discussed the plans that Mr.. Smithers
later has leader in his party put into ef-
feet. In religion Mr.. Appleton was Meth
odist. He was member of the Church of
that denomination in towr, and appreciated
and enjoyed its services.
He married Hannah Crist. daughter of
Matthew Crist, prominent citizen of Beth
lehem, Pa. Their home was blessed with
five children, three Of whom survive-Mrs
Alonzo Whittock, of Odessa; Mrs. Robert
G. Whittock, of New Castle; and Miss Belle
Appleton who is at home with her mother.
Their freiEds sympathize with them in
there loss, husband and a father taken
from them. They have received many let
ters of sympathy and among them the fol-
lowing from Chief Justice Lore, the child
hood and lifelong friend of Mr.. Appleton:
WILMINGTON, DEL, Mar. 8, 1896.
MY DEAR Mrs. APPLEToN;-Pe me to
express my deep sympathy i'll the loss you
have sustained in the death of your hus-
band. He was so bright and happy here in
Jury work that we were planning to have
him with us again. The suddeness Of the
blow was startling and l could hardly be-
lieve it true. His company was to me al
ways exceedingly pleasing. Possessed of a
fund of information quite unusual, happy
at the use of language, and clear in the ex
preston ofhis ideas, it was treat to converse
with him on any and all topics of merit
His death takes another Of the links of my
childhood friends, makes me feel very keen
ly my loss.
