In the death OF Truman LeBarron, which
occurred at his home near this village last
Wednesday night, this vicinity loses one Of
| Its most highly esteemed and respected citi-
zens. The funeral was from his late home
last Saturday afternoon, Rev. A. II. Webb
| Of Montpelier officiating. The interment
was at the cemetery at Kents Corner. Mr..
LeBarron leaves wife and two children to
| mourn his loss. Their neighbors and
| friends extend to them their heartfelt
| sympathy in this their sad bereavement.
| AS rarely ever happens his death occurred
upon his birthday, he being sixty-six years
Of age the day he died. Mr.. LeBarron was
| OF that peculiar organization that all who
became acquainted with him became his
| friends. Honest and honorable in his deal
| ings he won the confidence and esteem OF
his friends which he retained until the day
| OF his death. Your correspondent during
| almost life-ti acquaintance with him
desires to add his tribute of highest respect
and esteem to the memory of his departed
friend.
