Joined Again by Death
New York, 1895
William Richmond and his wife Jerusha, an aged couple who have lived for many years at Southold and were among the wealthy citizens there, were both stricken with pleuro-pneumonia a couple of weeks ago. Last Friday Mrs. Richmond died. Her aged husband was not informed of her death because of his dangerous condition, but her remains were kept until he would be able to view her for the last time. Wednesday morning he, too, died. The loving old pair were buried together on Friday. Mr. Richmond was 70 years old and his wife was 65.
Comment: Note that they are described as "an aged couple," yet he was 70 and she was only 65.
His Stormy Career Closed
Benjamin Tyler died at Smithtown on Monday. He was a retired sea captain who had a remarkable record of shipwrecks. The schooner Annie Carll, his last vessel, was wrecked three times and finally lost off the coast of Spain. Captain Tyler and his men were rescued by a Spanish gunboat, while an English brig, which transferred the schooner's cargo and was carrying it to New York was wrecked on the voyage.
Editor Johnson Dead
Frank A. Johnson, of the Bay Shore Journal, died in Philadelphia Tuesday morning. Mr. Johnson had been ill with consumption.
