Obituary
EAST CORINTH
Death of William Page, Aged 82, Occurred Friday; Funeral YesterdayWilliam Page, aged about 82, passed to the 'Great Beyond' last Friday night at the home of R. D. Rowland, where he had been boarding. Mr. Page fought in the Civil war and was an oldtime resident of this place. 'Uncle Bill,' as he was called by nearly everyone, will be greatly missed in the community, especially by the children as he was always very generous with the pennies which jingled in his pockets. Whenever asked to give for a good cause he always responded as cheerfully as anyone. His nearest relatives are an aunt, Mrs. Sibley of Concord, N. H., a nephew, Charles page, of this place, and a niece, Mrs. Almon Mason of Topsham. The funeral service was held at his late home Monday at 1:30 o'clock and interment took place in the village cemetery.
