Mrs. Ellen M. Pearsons. (From the Barre Telegram of Nov. 21.) Mrs.

Ellen M. Pearsons passed to rest yesterday morning at 10 o'clock at the home of Charles F. Stevens on Highland avenue, at the age of 59 years. Mrs. Pearsons was born in Ryegate, to John and Jane Downie and lived there the greater part of her life, though she had been with her daughter, Mrs.

C. F. Stevens, most of the time since 1900. In 1862 she married Chas. F.

Pearsons with whom she lived until he died in 1889. It is a significant fact that she gave a father, a brother and a husband to the Civil war, and that two others related to her by marriage, and really in the same family, answered the call to arms, and offered themselves for the service of their country. Mrs. Pearsons was a baptized member of the Reformed Presbyterian church, although she had not been able to attend much for several years on account of poor health. But she was a devoted Christian woman, and a daily student of the bible from which she drew great comfort and consolation.

She was also very patient in the midst of her long illness and always more thoughtful of others than of herself, anxious to be of as little trouble as possible. She had been confined to her bed for 14 weeks, but had been gradually failing for a long time before that. She leaves children as follows: Mrs. Chas. Stevens, Barre; Mrs.

C. F. Jones, Medfield, W. A. Pearsons, Plymouth, N.

Mrs. H. E. Tabor, and C. N.

Pearsons, Concord, N. H. One brother, John Dowie, lives in California. The funeral will be at 2.30 p. Tuesday and it is expected that the Rev.

Asa M. Bradly will officiate. The burial will be at East Topsham on Wednesday. George L. Buchanan.

We live in a world of changes. Con- ditions which existed yesterday cease to exist today. The past often seems like a dream. A familiar face once so often seen on the street and in places of business isseen no now more. George Lin colin Buchanan for nearly thirty years a resident of Topsham, had become a part of the identity of the place.

He was always present on all occasions of interest. His voice was often heard in the public gatherings, and he was nearly always in his place in church on the Sabbath and his voice in prayer and exhortation contributed to the exercises of the social meeting. About one year ago Mr. Buchanan moved with his family to Somerville, where he lived until the time of his death which occurred Oct. 7, 1904.

A few days previous he went to Scholly Square, Boston, to make some purchases. On his return and while descending the stairs at the Subway station his heel caught and he fell injuring his arm and shoulder, and shocking his whole system. On reaching home he went about his usual business for several days when he began to grow ill and was removed to the hospital, where he became unconscious and lived but a few hours, his illness being from acute Bright's disease. Mrs. Buchanan was visiting in Topsham where the sad news of his death reached her.

The burial was in Topsham the services being held in the M. E. church Oct. 9, the pastor officiating. Mr.

Buchanan was a member of the Pentecostal Mission church of Somer. ville. Deep sympathy is extended to Mrs. Buchanan by her friends in Topsham in the hour of her bercavement. George L.

Buchanan was born at Boltonville and was 56 years, 2 months and 11 days old. The son of James Buchanan, was twice married, first to Ellen, oldest daughter of Josiah Page, with whom he lived fifteen years. After her death in 1893, he married Helen Burbank Corruth, widow of the late William Corruth, who survives him. During the Civil war the deceased served in the Nayy. In an accident on shipboard he lost a limb.

Mr. Buchanan was a man of kind heart and generous impulses, fearless and outspoken in the interest of the cause he thought to be right, and probably his last days were his best. We may trust to meet him in the better life beyond. J. C.
