Chelsea, Me-, May 12.-(Special)-
Rufus Clough, the oldest resident in
this town, died Tuesday night aged 90
years. He was one Of the best known
citizens of the place and was highly
esteemed by all.
Mr.. Clough was born in West Gardi-
ner and in early life followed the oc-
cupation Of a carpenter, working for
sometime in a sash and blind factory
in Gardiner. He had been a farmer
much of his life, however. In politics
he was Republican and though ac-
tive in this field in his earlier years
would never accept Office. He was a
member Of the Methodist Church of
Gardiner and member of the Good
Templars, in which organization he
took a prominent part when a young
er man. He upheld the principles of
temperance throughout his life. to
which circumstance combined with
systematic living, he attributed, in
part, his longevity. The funeral will
be at o'clock Friday afternoon.
Mr.. Clough'sswife died Is years ago
Two sons. Mefyin o. Clough of this
town and James.A. Clough Of Augusta
and two sisters, Mrs. Matilda F. King
and Mrs. Emma j. Hopkins of West
Gardiner, survive.

The departing soldiers were ad-
