JASON A. YOUNG
Again the heavenly messenger has
come and taken from his earthly la
bors one who was loved and respected
/ by all. Jason Alexander Young was
born in Greensboro March 2, 1854. He
was the oldest of a family of eight
children, four of his brothers dying
in infancy and sister several years
! ago.
On March Is, 1881, he was united in
marriage to Miss Minnie M. Calder
wood and to this union two daughters
were horn, Elsie Agnes, now Mrs.
Walter Hayden of Hollis, N. H., and
| Annabel Mary, now Mrs. Will John
son of Hardwick. Mrs. Young died
about seven years ago and soon after
| Mr.. Young sold the farm in Green's
boro, where they had spent so many
| happy years together and made his
home with his daughter, Mrs. Hayden.
In early life he confessed his faith in
Christ as his Savior and was a MEM
| Der of the Reformed Presbyterian
church of East Craftsbury until they
changed to United Presbyterian. He
was loyal follower of the Lord, an
elder in the church, an efficient Sun
day school teacher and always kind
and thoughtful of others. While he
had not been with us for a few years,
yet his good influence remained. Mr..
Young had been in failing health for
some time, but felt able to come and
visit once more the relatives and
friends in this vicinity. While visit
ing at the home of his daughter, Mrs.
Johnson, he was taken worse and
gradually failed until the end came on
November 80.
The funeral services were held in
the U. P. church on Saturday, Deem
Der 3, the pastor, Rev. N. B. McClung,
being in charge. Two appropriate Sc
lections were rendered by the choir
The floral offerings were beautiful.
Interment was in East Craftsbury
cemetery. Besides the daughters and
