He has 7 children and 24 grand children. All of his children except the youngest having married, and yet, in all this time, nearly half a century, there has not been a single death in his family. This certainly is a very remarkable family history, one that cannot be duplicated, perhaps, in the state. Mrs. And Mrs. Bostwick have the best wishes of The Argus for many more years of happiness under the smiles of a kind Providence.
