Death of Capt. John Varney.

Capt. John Varney, a Well-knoWn- and
respected citizens of Hallowell, died at
his home on Second street place, Thurs
day morning, after an illness of several
months. His malady was of rheumat-
ic nature, but within few weeks his
condition was thought to have been
somewhat improved. His death oc-
cured while sitting in his chair and
was undoubtedly caused by heart
complication.
Capt. Varney had been a resident of
Hallowell for many years, coming here
soon after the war of the Rebellion. His
native place was near VaSSalboro. He
was captain of a colored company dur
ing the war and his gallant service is
spoken of by his intimate associates.
He was gentleman of many good
qualities. He was of extremely jovial
and happy disposition and acquaint-
ances generally were drawn to happy
friendship His wife died about II years
ago. Two children survive, Mrs. John
Dinsmore, residing in the Holy Land
near jerusalem. where her husband is
engaged in teaching and Mrs. James
Richmond Of New Hampshire.
Mr.. Varney had been in the employ
of Alden Simpsons Sons, oilcloth man
ufacturers, many years, and upon the
death of Thomas Burnham, succeeded
him as superintendent of the company's
interests here. Prior to that time he
was the night Waterman at the fac
tory.
The funeral arrangements will be an
nounced later.
