Obituary

CHARLES G. FLINT

While out walking in the fields last Wednesday, death came very suddenly to one of the oldest residents in town, due to old age and over exertion in the heat. Charles Granville Flint was born 83 years ago on the 4th of July, on the farm commonly known as the old Flint farm. He was married to Minerva Metcalf who died six years ago, since which time he has boarded out through the winter but would go back to his farm and live alone in the summer, until two years ago he went to live with Mr. And Mrs. Dana LaClair. There he has since had a good home and been very patiently and tenderly cared for. He gave liberally in support of the church and in a great many ways he will be missed. He was a member of Company I, 15th Reg. Vt. Volunteers. The funeral was held at the house Friday afternoon, Rev. C. R. Upton officiating. Interment was at the village cemetery. The flowers consisted of white carnations, cross of roses, a wreath of evergreens and a profusion of wild flowers and ferns which were very beautiful. He leaves an adopted daughter who lives in the west and was not present at the funeral.
