I am not related to these people, and if you are, please contact me. The Holy Bible Containing the Old and New Testaments. Printed by D. Fanshaw, New York, 1820. Many pages are missing, making me wonder if a major section of genealogy was removed. Inserted within is an obituary W. F. Stanton of Rochester, N.Y.

Fletcher, who died in Claremont Dec. 2d, 1870. [Written expressly for Diantha H. Howard, sister of the deceased.] Thy radiant star has ceased to shine, Still shall its fire on fancy's vision glow, And memory shed her moon-beams on thy sun, Although it beams no more below. Though early vanished hence, an angel band Marked thy swift progress through the realm of night, And hailed thy rising in a fairer land, Watched the last lustre of thy parting light. And while on mind's recording page I view Thy polished graces and thy virtues fair, Thy wisdom mild, or Heaven taught piety, A vestige of thy worth, would share.
