New Holland Clarion, 24 Feb 1912
Isaac H. Mason died on Saturday at the home of his son in Philadelphia after
being in a more or less feeble condition for a number of years, death resulting
from general debility. Mr. Mason was born and raised in the vicinity of White
Horse, Salisbury township, and for many years conducted a harnessmaking shop at
White Horse. Owing to failing health he quit his trade and business about
fifteen years ago and lived semi-retired on a small farm in the village until
last fall when he and his wife went to Philadelphia to live with their son,
Park. Mr. Mason was almost a life-long member of St. John’s Episcopal Church and
for many years was a vestryman of the congregation always taking an active part
in the church. Very interesting, indeed, were the biographical events of the
church, which he loved to relate. He was in the seventieth years of his age. In
politics he was a Democrat of the old type and during the Cleveland
administration he served as postmaster a Pequea post office. For many years he
was a member of the Knights of Pythias. His widow, who was Anna Weaver, of
Salisbury township, a sister of Jonathan H. Weaver, of this boro, and one son
with whom he residd, survive to mourn his departure; also one brother, R. B.
Mason, of Lancaster. The remains were shipped to Gap on Tuesday morning and were
conveyed to St. John’s Episcopal Church at Compass where services were held and
the interment was made in the Mason burial plot.
