Abram Merrill of Salisbury, died June 30, 1890, aged

 ing machine from his barn loft. He was a very exemplary 

 young man. 



David Smith of Newburyport, died Sept. 12, 1890, 

 aged 73 years. Mr. Smith was a manufacturer of brick 

 and farmer combined. He always took a prominent part 

 at all the meetings of the society, especially the institutes,

Moses P. Atwood of Groveland, died March 26, 1890,

 67 years, 11 mos. He had been a member of this society

 great worth to his family, as well as the whole community. 

 It can be truly said of him, '"An honest man is the noblest 

 work of God." A more willing or ready man in sickness 

 and want never lived. As an agriculturist and townsman, 

 his place will be hard to fill. A man who never put his 

 hand to the plough and looked back, but with a kind heart, 

 a true soul, combined with hard toil and frugality he fur- 

 rowed on to the end.
