the house where he had lived for the 
last 40 years. 
For agreatmany years Mr. Burchstead 
was engaged in the grocery business in 
Beverly Farms and to those of a gene- 
ration ago he was a familiar figure driv- 
ing between Manchester and_ Beverly 
Farms. 
He was a member of Magnolia Lodge, 
149, I. O. O. F., of Manchester, join- 
ing the lodge in 1871. 
He was twice married, his first wife 
being Minerva Lee. In 1899 he 
married Mrs. Mary E. Severance, whose 
maiden name was Brown. She survives 
him. 
He is also survived by three sons, 
John A. and George H. of this place, 
and William L. Burchstead of Newton- 
ville, who is cashier of the Boston Post. 
There are also four grand children, Geo. 
L. and Edward of the Farms, and Eliza- 
beth Lee and Florence Louise Burch- 
stead of Newtonville.

formed by the Rev. Clarence Strong 
Pond, pastor of the Beverly Farms Bap- 
tist church. ' A reception -was held in 
the Chapel of the church from 8 to 9.30. 
The bride and groom, assisted by Miss 
-Ida Weir of Brookline, the maid of 
honor, and Frank Preston, brother of

Farms. school, where the bride also 
. taught. 
Just before the happy couple left for 
their honeymoon they were showered 
‘from the chapel’ balcony: |

attested by numerous beautiful and costly 
wedding gifts. “Mr. and Mrs. Doane

tion of Mrs. Preston’s house. The
