    3 Mar 1841 -
    Death of An Old Citizen - Another victim to consumption has fallen in our midst - a man univerally respected for his excellent social and domestic virtues as a citizen, and his eminently useful qualifications as a teacher. Moses Stevens departed this life at his residence in this vicinity on Monday night, 1st instant, from the effects of a lingering pulmonary attack which he bore with philosophic and Christian fortitude. Mr. Stevens was a native of Massachusetts but for a long series of years, filled with rare success, the station of Principal of one of our best English and Classical Seminaries. Mr. Stevens was long an active and devoted member of the Masonic Fraternity. His remains will be committed to the grave this afternoon amidst the impressive ceremonies of that ancient and honorable order and the heart felt regrets of his companions of the Lodge.
