Marshall of Beverly Farms, 
South several years ago. 
Well-Known Manchester Citizen 
Passes Away. 
John W. Marshall, one of Man- 
_chester’s best known and highly re- 
spected citizens, passed away last 
Saturday afternoon at 3.30, after an 
illness of a few weeks. Mr. Mar- 
shall was born in Beverly Farms, 
July 7, 1846. He was a son of 
Tram and Mary Marshall. In_ his 
younger days he followed the trade 
of a brick-layer, but about 30 years 
ago, he engaged in the shoe business 
in Boston with his brother Joseph, 
and for 22 years business was con- 
ducted under the firm name of J. & 
J. W. Marshall on Sudbury street. 
In 1899, the firm was burned out 
and two years afterward Mr. Mar- 
shall gave up the business. Since 
that time he has lived in Manches- 
ter and has not been engaged in 
business. He was twice married. 
llis first wife was Elizabeth Eldridge 
of Pride’s Crossing. In 1883, he 
married Ada Lee Winchester who 
survives him. There are also two 
sons, Lee W. and J. Sidney Marshall. 
Mr. Marshall was a man of kind, 
loving and even disposition. It was 
a pleasure to know him intimately, 
for he was one of whom it can well 
be said, ‘‘he was always the same.”’ 
He bore his late illness with the 
same fortitude and patience which 
predominated his every-day life. He 
was a member of the Orthodox Con- 
gregational church and a charter 
member of William Jeffrey colony of 
Pilgrim Fathers. He was at one 
time a member of the Odd Fellows. 
Tle was a brother of the late A. O. 
who 
passed away very suddenly in the 
Another 
brother, Joseph, with whom he was 
in business so many years, lives in 
Reading. 
Funeral services were held Tues- 
day afternoon from his late resi- 
denee on Central street. Rev. Dr. 
Rider of Gloucester and Rev. Fran- 
eis A. Fate of Glastonbury, Conn., a 
former -pastor here, were present 
and both made very comforting re- 
marks. The Lotus quartet of Boston 
sang several selections, including 
Whittier’s ‘‘Eternal Goodness,’’ 
“Beautiful Isle of Somewhere,’’ 
“Abide With Me,’’ and at the close 
of Dr. Rider’s prayer they sang the 
“Lord’s Prayer.’’ Burial was in 
Rosedale cemetery. 
Frank C. Perry. 
Frank C. Perry, a resident of 
Manchester for the last 12 years, 
died very suddenly at his home on 
School street, last Saturday night of 
apoplexy. Mr. Perry was born in 
NORTH SHORE BREEZE 
the Azores in 1868, At the age of 
ten he took to the sea and made a 
number of voyages on a ship plying 
between the Azores and this coun- 
try.. It was on one of these trips, 
while yet a boy, he left the ship with 
the object of obtaining a better po- 
sition in life. He went to Gloucester 
and entered the fishing trade, re- 
maining there until~12 years ago, 
when he gave up the sea, and took 
up painting as a trade, at which he 
has been employed by E. A. Lane of 
Manchester, for a number of years. 
His death is a particularly sad 
one. He spent the evening with his 
little daughter making May baskets 
and retired as usual in the best of 
health, apparently. He expired be- 
fore midnight. He is survived by a 
widow and one daughter, Virginia, 
also a sister. Funeral services were 
held at his late home Tuesday morn- 
ing, being in charge of the Painters’ 
Union, William Dooque, chaplain. 
Very near the entire membership of 
the union attended. Burial was at 
Rosedale cemetery. 
Mrs. Sarah E. Bennett. 
Mrs. Sarah E. Bennett, a native of 
Manchester, died this week in Salem. 
She was a sister of F. K., Charles, 
George W. and Edward Hooper of 
this town. An item in the Salem 
News of Wednesday says of her: 
‘‘In the death of Mrs. Sarah E. 
Bennett, wife of Charles H. Bennett 
of this city, the family, the church, 
the neighborhood, and many in the 
community, who never knew her per- 
sonally, have lost a true and helpful 
friend. A woman of rare modesty, 
but marked ability, having a lking 
for burden-bearing, wherever heavy 
tasks were presented, of wide sym- 
pathies and generous spirit, she 
made for herself an important place 
in the life of this city, which will 
not be easily filled. She was, for 
many years, an efficient and valued 
member of the Tabernacle church. 
During a long and painful sickness, 
she maintained a cheerful courage, 
having great patience, and keeping 
a lively interest in the affairs of her 
home, and of her large cirele of 
friends. It may fitly be said of her, 
‘She rests from her labors, and her 
works do follow her.’ ”’ C. 
Iler remains were brought to 
Manchester for burial. 
Ilorace Standley and D. O’Sull- 
van have a notice in another column 
to the effect that they will close 
their blacksmith shops on Saturday 
at noon, commencing next Saurday, 
May 14, until the first Saturday in 
November.
