Other Deceased Members.

IN the attempt to sketch the lives of those who as members of the church were in
some prominent way identified with its progress and development, it has been
difficult to determine where to stop. It has been all the more so, since the
limits of this little book have been already pushed far beyond the original
purpose; yet there are many whose names and faces will readily recur to the
older members who perhaps are as well worthy of mention here as those of whom
sketches have been given, and whom the compiler would have been glad to give
place had it been possible to do so.

    Among these there will readily occur the names of Deacons Tibbits,
Hutchinson, Cross, Brewster, Samuel and Jesse Ballard, and Messrs. Jared, George
and William Lanphear, Drs. Whittlesey and Shaw, U. G. Spofford, L. D. Dallas,
and E. P. Humphrey, a goodly list but shorter than a similar one of the Godly
women who have been equally prominent in moulding the character of the church:
among whom were Mrs. Tibbits, Mrs. Hutchinson, Mrs. J. W. Carhart, Mrs. Sarah J.
Jones, Mrs. Sarah Fitch, Mrs. G. F. Peabody, Mrs. Pfennig, Mrs. Robertson, Mrs.
Laura F. Dunn, Mrs. S. Baird, Mrs. Mary L. Lester and others; also Misses Nancy
Knox, Katharine Tibbits, Elizabeth and Annie Hutchinson, Ella Caverts, Olivia
Lanphear, Laura and Mary Whittlesey, Angeline J. Smith, and many others who have
contributed to the upbuilding of the church and whose names are revered by it.

     It will be noticed however that sketches are given only of those who died
while in the membership of this church,—the only exception being that of Mrs.
Doe, the wife of our third pastor. It will be further noticed that some of those
referred to above are also mentioned more or less at length in connection with
their work in the Sunday School or elsewhere.
