dence, 60 Williams street, Norwich,
Thursday afternoon. He was father of
the Rev. George E. Martin, who while
in the Yale Divinity school conducted
the tent meetings at Morris Cove. His
illness covered a period Of several years
and was obviously fatal from the first.
About the time of the death of Mrs.
Martin, some nine weeks ago, he was
very i'll but later he recovered suffi-
GENTLY to be out; but the loss of his
wife was keenly felt by him, and no
doubt FASTENED his end. He was ill in
bed three weeks before his death, and
for the past few days has been con-
scious but a part of the time.
George H. Martin was born In Win
chendom, Mass, February II, 1923, and
was one of ten children. He learned the
trade of an engraver and al about the
age of twenty came to Norwich and en-
tered the gun mandatory of Allen &
Thurber. He remained in their employ
for about fifteen years and having been
for some time interested in music, de-
termined to take it up as a profession.
He has continued a music teacher for
over forty years or up to the time i'll

ORITUARY.
MRS. EUNICE A. CHAPMAN.


Mrs. Eunice Atresta Chapman died at
her home on Main street, Glastonbury,
Friday evening. She had enjoyed re-
markably good health during her long
life, but a sudden attack of pleurisy
last Monday developed so rapidly that
her case was soon rendered hopeless.
Mrs. Chapman would have been eighty
eight years old had she lived until July
81. She was native of Glastonbury, a
daughter of Daniel House, and it had
always been her home. At the age of
sixteen she married Azel Chapman,
with whom she lived for fifty years. He
died in 1880. For thirty-five years Mr..
and Mrs. Chapman conducted the tav-
ern known by that name, place espe-
cially famous during the days of the
Hartford and New London stage route.
After the tavern days were passed the
interior of the house was changed some
what and since her husbands death
Mrs. Chapman had made her home in
this house with her son Charles. Few
persons knew more about the local his
tory from 1920 down to the present than
Mrs. Chapman. Her husbands tavern
for number of years before the civil
war was the centerof local happenings,
and as her mental faculties were we'll
her memory furnished her
with many interesting incidents. She
was the mother of four children, two of
whom survive her. Hector and Charles
Chapman.
The funeral of Mrs. Chapman was
held from her late home yesterday af-
ternoon.
