The remains were interred in Salem cemetery on Monday afternoon at 3 o'clock. Grandfather: - 'Thou shalt come to thy grave in a full age, like as a stock of corn cometh in his season.' Few are permitted to remain on earth so long, and, we dare say, few have made such a long and consistent Christian career. A cherished father, a loved grandfather, one whose advice and help has done much in making us what we are, thy loss on earth has been a gain in Heaven."
