SARAH CLEVELAND.

The death of Miss Sarah Cleveland is
announced at West Orange, n. j., in
her one hundreth year. She was an old
resident of Middlebury, and with her
fathers family was prominent in the
Episcopal church. She was here when
1t was organized in 1910 and the last one
to connect its early history with the
present generation. She has written of
the time when its services were held
in the Osborne house with a little gallery
across one end, when Charles Linsley,
Mrs. Nathan Wood and Mrs. Shurtletf
were singers, and John 7. Shurtleti
played the bass viol which is now deposit
ed IN the museum. Her father was one of
the principal business men of the town.
He began as merchant in 1907, was APP
pointed postmaster in 1909 and held the
Office twenty years, part of the time
kept in the second story of the Murray
block. He was also U. S. district collect
or in the war of 1912. He was one of
those who organized St. Stephens
church, and served most of the time
while here as warden or vestryman. He
was BUSINESS manager of the Episcopal
Register, published here by Bishop
Smith in 1860. About 1850 he re-
moved to New Jersey, where his de
scendants now reside. At one time he
occupied the store on the site of Dyer's
block. Matthew w. Birchard was a
merchant in the same place in 1912 and
died recently over 100 years old. Thus
the only two centenarians of the village
were connected with the same business
site. Miss Cleveland was a cousin of
ex-President Cleveland.

with Christian patience, trusting to the
same Father who for so many years had
strewn his path with blessings. His old

people wherever he went, which he APP
preciated to the last. He married Jane
C. Clark, eldest daughter of Seth r. and
Mary (Tuthill) Clark, Sept. 10, 1882, and
they were allowed to remain together
for over sixty years, Mrs. Robbins death

by one son, Henry Robbins. and three
grandchildren. The funeral was largely
attended from his late residence on the
afternoon of May 30. Rev. S. II. Bar
