Sarah Bullock. 
The last member of one of Salem’s 
well-known old families, Miss Sarah 
Bullock, passed away in Manchester 
last Saturday, at the home of her late 
brother, Benjamin Bullock, on Wash- 
ington street. The end came very 
easily, the steady decline of old age 
leading up to a quiet death, which was 
as a child going into a sleep. Her 
age was 91 years, 10 months, she hav- 
ing been born on the third day of 
February, 1818. 
LOST. 
In Manchester, a pair of gold-bowed eye- 
glasses on Friday forenoon, between Jersey 
lane and Pleasant street. Kindly return to 
BREEZE OFFICE and. receive suitable 
reward. 
Miss Bullock was born in Salem, at 
the old homestead of the Bullocks on 
Derby street, near the present loca- 
tion of the Old Men’s Home. For 85 
years she lived in that house, until six 
years ago, when she came to Man- 
chester to end her days with her 
brother’s family. She came from 
genuine old Puritan stock, her fore- 
fathers, both on her father’s and 
mother’s side, being among the early 
settlers of Salem. 
Her father was Isaac Bullock, a 
well-known Salem merchant, and her 
mother was a member of the well- 
known Clough family of Salem. She 
is the last of ten children. All the 
advantages of wealth and position 
were incumbent upon her in her 
younger days, when Salem was a 
seaport, and her father gained ad- 
vantages incumbent upon the mer- 
chants of the day. She was a perfect 
type of the old-fashioned lady. 
Miss Bullock was only slightly 
known in Manchester, but the few 
years spent here greatly endeared her 
to all with whom she came in touch. 
She was buried Tuesday from the 
Blake Memorial chapel at Harmony 
Grove, Salem, where all the members 
of her family, save two brothers, are 
buried. Rev. Mr. Berle, pastor of the 
Crombie Street church, officiated He 
referred very pleasantly to the life of 
the deceased, contrasting the days of 
her youth and the progress of the age 
with the present day.
