    3. P. 341-342 I here also give some other names that may be of interest to the reader, and which I jotted down from time to time when visiting cemeteries: Clinton CULLUM, born November 17, 1819, died at his pleasant home on Liberty Street, Meadville, January 28, 1888' interred in Greendale Cemetery, Meadville. Nicholas H. Stull died at his home in Woodcock Township, Crawford County, February 9, 1888, aged 68 years and 1 moth. Interred on 11th in Blooming Valley Cemetery, the funeral services being conducted by our pastor, M. Miller, whose text was: Our fathers, where are they? Brother Stull had been a member of the State Road Methodist Episcopal Church for about twenty-five years. James H. Allen died November 24, 1886, in Campbell County, Dakota, while his wife was visiting in Crawford County, Penn. Robert Quinn, died October 16, 1865, aged sixty-eight years; Jane, his wife, died November 12, 1856, aged sixty years. They are interred in Lakeview Cemetery, Jamestown, Chautaugua Co., N.Y., and by their side rest the remains of Leander Simmons. Reuben E. Fenton, born July 4, 1819, died August 25, 1885, and is also buried in Lakeview Cemetery. [The Fenton vault is a small, plainly beautiful structure, bearing upon one end the words, "I am the Resurrection and the Life", and upon the other side the legend, "Rest in peace."] Cordelia A. Stephenson died March 13, 1889, in her sixty-sixth year. Her husband John Stephenson, died in 1878, and both are interred in Greendale Cemetery, Meadville, and I attended both funerals; they were relatives of mine. On that beautiful spring afternoon, March 14, 1889, I read on a monument in Greendale Cemetery the following: Through the grave and the gates of Death We pass to a joyful resurrection. DARWIN A.
