In Ceres, N. Y., May 2, 1913, Samuel Allen Champlin, in the eighty-fifth year of his age.
Samuel Allen Champlin was born in the town of Alfred, N. Y., and was the son of Bradford and Elizabeth Allen Champlin, who came to Alfred in the pioneer days. He enlisted in the Civil War in 1864, entering the 179th N. Y. Volunteers Infantry, Company B. In an attack on Petersburg he received injuries which affected his mind. This grew upon him as the years passed and finally clouded his entire life. For many years he was in St. Elizabeth Hospital, Washington, D. C., but for some years past he has been cared for in the home of his son, Mr. L. D. Champlin, Ceres, N. Y.
He leaves a wife, one son, mentioned above, and a daughter, Miss Eva St. Clair Champlin, the mother and daughter living near Alfred.
Funeral services, conducted by Pastor William L. Burdick, were held in the Alfred Rural Cemetery, which he was laid to rest. Wm. L. B.
