Mrs. Jane POWERS, one of the earliest settlers in the town of Easton, died
at the home of her son-in-law, Nelson VANWIE, in Iowa, the last day of
December, aged 92 years. Her husband, Gridley POWERS, was for many years a
prominent and highly respected citizen of Easton. He died many years ago
and was buried in the cemetery of that town. The remains of Mrs. POWERS
were brought to easton and laid beside those of her husband. A son of the
parties, Mr. B. H. POWERS, was for nearly four years county treasurer of
this county, and died a few weeks before the close of his second term,
having, however, been elected to a third term before his death occurred.
