ForMER MANCHESTER PREACHER 
Drab. 
Rev. Darius F. Lamson died Tues- 
day at the home of his brother, John 
A. Lamson, 97 Newtonville avenue, 
Newtonville. Dr. Lamson, who was 
&r years old, had been retired from 
the ministry for about seven years, 
his last charge having been in_the 
Baptist church in Manchester. 
He was a native of Weston, and 
was the son of the late John A. Lam- 
son. He was graduated from Brown 
University and the Newton Theologi- 
cal Institution, and was ordained as a 
pastor in 1858. Since then he has oc- 
cupied pulpits at Littleton, 1858-61; 
Ashland, 1861-65; Northboro, 1865- - 
73; Worcester, 1873-81; Hartford, 
1882-83 ; Manchester, 1884-96. From 
1896 to 1900 he held the position of - 
principal of Boydton Institute, Va. 
After fifty years of service he retired 
in 1908, and since then has lived with 
his brother in Newton, who is his last 
surviving relative. 
Mr. Lamson lived in Manchester 
nearly a score of years, preaching thir- 
teen years of that time. He was al- 
ways interested in public affairs and 
was greatly beloved by all who knew 
him. He took a deep interest in the 
Historical society. A monument to 
his life in Manchester remains in the 
History of the Town of Manchester, 
published in 1895, at the time of the 
250th anniversary of the town, in 
which event he was, one of the leading 
spirits. His work on the town his- 
tory was remarkably good, the re- 
search into the early life and history 
of the settlement which later grew 
into the beautiful town of Manches- 
ter-by-the-Sea, being of superior 
quality, as is evinced by the populari- 
ty which the book met on its publica- 
tion. Mr. Lamson was also an active: 
member of the Elder Brethren, the 
annual gatherings of which he attend- 
ed until. very recent years. 
Burial was in the family lot at Wes- 
ton, where his wife and daughters 
were buried,
