John Lycett 
Captain John Lycett passed away 
at his home off Magnolia avenue, 
Magnolia, early Thursday morning at 
the age of 77 years, 6 months, after 
an illness of five weeks. 
Few people at Magnolia were bet- 
ter known among the summer resi- 
dents and hotel guests than Captain 
Lycett, he having been engaged for 
the past 25 years in the yachting and 
boat business, taking out parties and 
letting sail and row boats. He will 
be greatly missed by these people, 
many of whom have known him for 
the last 25 years. 
John Lycett was born on July 4, 
1828, on a ship in Boston harbor. The 
first 22 years of his life he lived in 
Yarmouth, N.S., but 55 years ago he 
moved to Magnolia and has lived 
there since. In fact, he was one of 
the oldest inhabitants of Magnolia 
and grew up with the place as it de- 
veloped into one of the most popular 
resorts in New England. During the 
first 20 years of his stay in Magnolia 
he was engaged in the fishing busi- 
ness. | 
He is survived by a widow, three 
sons, Samuel G., of Cambridge, John 
C.and Arthur M., of Magnolia, and 
one daugeter, Mrs. Frank Locke of 
Lynn. Funeral services will be held 
at Magnolia chapel tomorrow after- 
noon and burial will be in Magnolia 
cemetery.
