At Shiloh, N. J., Oct. 30, 1896, Richard R. West, in the 86th year of his age.
Mr. West was born near Shiloh, and has always lived in this community. He was first married to Miss Lucy Davis, who died, leaving several children, three of whom are still living. He was again married to Miss Ruth Dare, who survives him, with three of her children. He lived to a ripe old age, while most of those who started life with him had passed on before. A large number of relatives and friends attended the funeral November 1, at his late residence. The family will miss the usual home-coming on "father's" birthday. I. L. C.
