Raftsman Journal  August 17th, 1859
Died:  At his residence in Penn township, on Tuesday morning August 9, 1859, 
Joseph Wriglesworth, aged about 30 years.
Suddenly and unexpectedly a devoted wife and four young and lovely children 
are bereaved of the head and pride of the family, and neighbors are called 
to the last tribute of respect to one they knew but to love.  Surrounded by 
all that his heart desired, this amiable man went to rest as the wearied 
child to his slumber.  He had taken no part in the busy and active affairs 
of life; his disposition and temperament led him to seek enjoyment at the 
fireside and in the social circle -- there his affable conduct and lovely 
qualities made him shine, and knit his friends to him by indissoluble bonds.  
In all the relations of life his conduct was marked with frankness, honesty, 
and good humor.  Aught never ruffled his brow; a harsh expression rarely 
escaped his lips.  He was for years a consistent church member.
   "The soul of origin divine,
       God's glorious image freed from clay,
    In heaven's eternal sphere shall shine
       A star of day."                                             C.
