Another who will be missed in this community, is Mr. John Abbott, father-in-law of Squire Robinson, age 83 years, who departed this life on Dec. 29th.
Mr. Abbott was one of the oldest democrats in the state, having run in fellowship with Col. John Dement, father of the present Secretary of State, way back in the history of this state.
Mr. Abbott told how the old fellows would plan and work together for the success of the democratic party. The old gentleman mourned for a long time four years ago when his party got left, but said he would live until a democrat was elected to the presidential office, so that he could say that good old man in the temple, on the announcement of the Savior's birth, "Lord now lettest thou thy servant depart in peace, for mine eyes have been seen thy salvation."
