                                         Died, at this home in Damascus township, near Grelton, O., Judson Emery, aged 74 years, 4 months and 19 days.  He was born in the State of Maine, July 9th, 1820.  His death oc-curred November 28, 1894.  He was a pioneer citizen of Henry county, set-tling on the farm upon which he re-sided until his death, in the year 1847. He entered the land at the land office in Lima, Ohio.  In the year 1848, he was married to Miss Lucinda Mead, who preceded him to the other shore on the 9th of April, 1892.  He leaves two children, Mrs. O.

The good deeds of our departed friend In memory ever will be green: His life so full of noble acts, Has surely made his record clean.

DEATHS
One of Henry county’s oldest and most respected pioneers died Tuesday morning at 5 o’clock, namely, Harper Senter, at the home of his son, Asa Senter, of the South Side, with whom he made his home.  The deceased was a native of New Hampshire, came to this country over a half century ago, and has resided continuously in Har-rison township, except for a few months past.  At the time of his death his age was 87 years and 17 days.  For a few weeks past he has complained of a shortness of breath, which increased of late, ending in heart failure.  The funeral will be held today at 1 p. m., at the house and interment made in the Hoy cemetery, Harrison twp.  Mr. Senter was a man of sterling character and held the esteem of his neighbors to a marked degree.  His religious belief was Universalism, and he ordered his life upon the broad plane of honesty between man and man, the justice and love of God toward his children.  His life was one of right Christian living, and will reap reward on its merits. ____________________

                                                             Obituary Angelo Emery, son of Asa and Betsey Emery, was born in Montville, Waldo Co., Maine, June 8th, 1838. While he was still a small boy his father moved with his family to Ohio, leaving Maine Aug. 12, 1844.  They first settled in Seneca Co, but in a few years came to Henry county and settled in Harrison township on what is now known as the Jacob Hoy farm, and here Angelo grew to manhood.  Dur-ing that terrible conflict between north and south in those well remembered years, ’61 to ’65, he responded to the first call for volunteers, and in his country’s service bravely wore the blue for the entire four years.  He went to Kansas in ’79, and while living there he was a mem-ber of the G.A.R., and on his return to Ohio first joined the Oscar P. Ran-dall Post, of Harrison township, and later the Loraine Emery Post, of Ma-linta.  Just before his last illness he was elected Post Commander. He was married Nov. 1st, 1865, to Miss Elizabeth Whitright, to them were born three children, two sons and one daughter.  He died Jan. 22nd, 1902, aged 63 years, 7 months and 14 days.  He leaves to mourn their loss a wife, three children, Dorr, Zuleika and Bert, the latter living in Dakota, three grandchildren and two sisters besides other relatives and friends. The funeral services were held Sat-urday, Jan. 25, at the M. E. church in Grelton, conducted by Rev. W. J. Dempster, of Napoleon.  The deceas-ed was a very highly esteemed citizen, and the attendees to render him the last honors bestowed by living friends was exceptionally large.
 
                                         It smiteth low in every heart, We hear it each and all, A song of those who answer not, However we may call.
 
                                         ‘Tis hard to take the burden up When these have laid it down; They brighten all the joy of life, They soften every frown
 
                                         But oh! ‘tis good to think of them When we are troubled sore; What e’er betides Thy love abides-Our God forever more.
 
                                       We desire to express our heartfelt thanks to neighbors and friends for their kind assistance and sympathy during illness and death of our beloved husband and father, and as we look up-on the beautiful floral offering we feel that we are surrounded by friends in-deed, that have proved that they were a friend in need. MRS. ELIZABETH EMERY AND CHILDREN. ________________
