of the New Hampshire legislature He
died in York, Me-, about 1864. His first
wife, whose maiden name was Wheeler,
died young, leaving daughter, now de-
ceased. His second wife, the mother of
John G., was daughter of Thomas and
Lydia (Grow) Savage Of York. The Saw
age family is an old and distinguished one,
dating from the Norman Conquest in Eng

the death of Hannah S. Hussey, widow Of
the late Lincoln Hussey. at the home of her
Oldest son, Omar G., in Waldo, March Goth.
The deceased was a daughter of William
Gould, who moved from sandwich, New
Hampshire, seventy years ago to Brooks,
with large family, and settled on what is
often called Gould hill. The large Friends
meeting in Brooks was one attraction to
the family at that time. The Friends be-
lief thus inculcated in youth, and the habit
of regular attendance at religious services,
followed her through life. She was well
read and a firm believer in those principles.
One brother survives her, Daniel T. Gould
of Boston, who visited her last spring.
She leaves one daughter, two sons and
eight grandchildren. The daughter, Mary
E. johnson, of Thorndike, was with her
much of the time during her brief illness.
The youngest son, Irving K. OF Dallas,
Texas, visited her last autumn after long
absence, giving her great JOY and continued
peace of mind in answer to earnest prayer
for years. AS the hours of evening drew
on and the happy end came without strug-
| gle, the family were gathered about the
bedside tearfully watching the loved one,
when one of the younger ones exclaimed,
"See grandma's face shine.' So ended
this faithful Christian life. Her friends
and neighbors met at her home in Waldo
prior to the departure for Brooks and lis
tened to reading of the Scripture and pray
er by her friend William Jones of South
Brooks. The funeral services were held
at Brooks, March oath, Rev. II. Small and
Rev d. Bracket, acquaintance and life
long friends of the deceased, rendering sat
| isfactory service, and Rev. Z. E. Colburn
pronounced the benedction. Her four
grandsons, Pliny, Willie, Emery and Leon
| Hussey, acted as bearers. Her grandnieces,
Grace and Alice Dow, sang some sweet Sc
| lections, assisted by G. NJ. Morrill, as tenor
| and W. S. Jones as bass The floral con-
| tributiOns were very beautiful. Friends
and neighbors gathered at the services to
show their appreciation of her homes t

Friends yard near by.
Miss Eta F. Mulln of Camden died at

in Boston, March 22d, after long illness

ago, daughter of Capt. Perez and the late
| Mary II. (Fernald) Mullin. She attended
the common schools of Castine and the
Camden High school and graduated from
| the Castine Normal school. She began
teaching while in the Normal school and
continued in that vocation until about one
year ago, when she was obliged to give ur
on account of failing health. She taught
many schools in Maine and was ateacher fol
a few years in the west. For several years
past she had been teacher in the public
schools of Camden. Miss Mullin possessed
the highest qualities of successful teacher
