Death of MIR. Judevine.


Harvey Tudevine died at his HON
Wednesday morning, after long illness
Mr.. Iudevine was one Of Concord's old
est citizens, having spent his whole lit
in town. He was born at Concord Cor
ner, March IS, 1920, the son Of Mr.. ant
Mrs. Cornelius Judevine. He was one o
three children, Alden, brother who dice
at Hardwick several years ago, and who
left to Concord the Judevine Memorla
School Building, and sister, Luthera
also deceased. Mr.. Judevine was mar
ried to Florella J, Morse, August %, 1916
and to them was born one daughter
Luthera. Mrs. Judevine died July "a
1855. and the daughter was the comfort
of her father till she too was called to a
higher life, June &c, 1864. The death OF
his daughter in her 10th year was great
sorrow to him and one which time healed
only to a small degree. February 81,
1861, he was married to Angeline Hol-
brook, who survives him, and who has
been a faithful and devoted helpmeet, un-
firing in her efforts to please and comfort
him, and during his late illness, although
in feeble health herself, she has sus.
tanned the burden with a strength that
was almost miraculous. Mr.. Judevine
had been a farmer and merchant OF his
own volition and the town OF Concord
had bestowed upon him many OF its
offices. He represented his town in the
legislature of '65. &c, was Essex County
senator in 1880, had been selectman,
overseer of the poor, postmaster, con.
stable and school director. During the
building OF the Judevine Memorial School
Building he was the one most interested,
and after the burning of the town hall
last spring he proposed that when the
new hall should be built it should bear
in the tower a town clock, the gilt OF
himself and wife. The clock arrived sew
eral weeks ago and the bell bears the in
scription, "The gift of Mr.. and Mrs. II.
Iudevine," and will be a lasting memo
rial to the memory Of one through whose
bene6cence we are able to possess it. 1t
is sincerely regretted that be could not
not have lived to hear it strike the hour.

idly the past year, and since July had
