MARSHFIELD.

III IeOI1E lTJlD,
Mrs. Emily Coburn, wife of Stephen
Hollister. passed away April 26, 1904,
after a brief illness of pneumonia.
She was q daughter of David Coburn
and Phebe Edgerton and was born in
Cabot. Dec. 20, 1920, and was married
to Stephen Hollister July IA, 1847.
They lived together nearly fifty.seven
years. She rarely went from home,
owing to the blindness of her husband
during the last part of his life and
was always by his side to care for him
as long as she was able. They had
two sons, Josiah who died in 1870, and
George who lived on the home farm
with his parents. Stephen Rich Hol-
lister was not separated long from his
companion passing away April 28, on
the day of her funeral. He was born
in Marshfield Jan. 8, 1914, and was a
son of Josiah Hollister and Phebe
Rich. His father came tt Marshfield
from Glastonbury, Conn, and was
married in 1909, buying the farm
which has been in the name of the
Hollister family nearly a century.
Mr.. Holllster served his town as Rep
resentative for two years, was select
man during the civil war, and did a
good deal IN raising recruits. He was
associate judge four years and held
many minor offices in the town. He
never missed voting for the President,
and went to vote for the Governor
when he was eighty.eight years old.
1t was the last time he went out. He
caught a severe cold and was confined
to the bed nearly all the time for a
year and a half, gradually wearing
out of old age. He was blind twelve
years but was patient under his afflic-
iton. retaining his wonderful memory
and faculties nearly to the last and
keeping up his interest in the political
events of the day.
