CHARLES H. JOSLYN.
The many friends of Charles H
! Joslyn were grieved to hear of his
death which occurred at the home
place where he had always lived Mon
day morning, June IL. The funeral
was held at the home Wednesday al
1.30 p. M, Rev. r. A. Hamilton Off
ciating.
Charles HI. Joslynwas born July 18
1854, in Bloomington, the only son Oh
Amariah and Marietta Joslyn. He
obtained his education in the public
schools of his native town and at Der
by academy. In the year of 1906 he
was united in marriage to Emma A
Pierce, who with one daughter, Mary
survives him. A nephew and niece
Edmund Gross and Mrs. r. A. Dut.
ton, both of this place are the only
near relatives living.
AT the early age of SO Mr.. Joslyr
was chosen to represent his town. Al
a later date he was made selectman
which office he held for many years
He was a member of the Masonic
order and a charter member of the X
P's.
In the departure of the deceased
the family and friends have met will
an unspeakable loss. Mr.. Joslyn wa!
plain and unassuming, free from de
ceit, and just and considerate in al
his dealings with others. His strong
serious nature responded to ever!
call, and this modified by his abun
dant humor and wit, drew men to hin
and held them in loyal and devoted
friendship.
1t is of consolation to those VIII
survive him that he lived his life wei
to the end and that his career wa
crowned with usefulness and success
During the whole period of his lif
his benefactions were numerous an
constant. As an earnest and devou
Christian he gave freely to the sup
. port of the church where he was dea
con the latter part of his life.
He had no fear of death but wa
content to leave this world for tn
: better one beyond.
His work is done. The trust
: held SO many years is at an end. Hi
spirit, the immortal part of man, ha
I gone up on high, but the memory @
him will remain with us for all time.
i Card of Thanks-We wish to than
j the friends who showed us their syn
3 pathy during our recent bereavement
especially to those who visited an
sent flowers during the last illness c
our dear husband and father.
? Mrs. Emma Joslyn,
