DEATH OF SAMUEL U. OAKS.
MAD.

DEATH Of SAMCISL u oAho.
The town of Hancock is again called to
mourn the loss of one of its oldest citi
zens, in the death of Samuel U. Oaks,
who passed to his rest on Wednesday
morning, Nov. s. For some time past he
had been ailing, but his death, while not
unexpected, came rather suddenly after
all.
Mr.. Oaks was born in Hancock on August
II, 1929, and was in his seventy-seyenth
year. He had always made his home in
this town, and was deeply interested in
everything that pertained to its welfare.
In his younger days he followed the sea,
but with advancing years he settled down
for the life on shore.
Nearly fifty-two years ago he married
Miss Olive Skinner, of Brewer, and for
more than half century they have lived
happily together. In the days when Elder
Benjamin Penney was pastor of the Free
Baptist church, Mr.. Oaks became inter
ested in religion, and as a result united
with that church, of which he was always
a consistent member. He was also inter
ested in the work of the grange, and was
charter member CT that organization in
the town.
A man of quiet life and honest purpose,
he enjoyed the esteem of his fellow
townsmen, and many of them attended the
funeral as last tribute of their respect
for their longtime neighbor. Services
were held at the house on Friday after
noon conducted by Rev. P. A. A. Killam,
- d.. IL.
