The Westboro Chronotype
21 November, 1896

         At Southboro

         Mrs. WHITTEMORE, probably the oldest person in town, died at the
         residence of her son, Mr. MARSHALL WHITTEMORE, Thursday of last week.
         She was born in Minot, Me., about 97 years ago, and has lived with her
         son for the past 14 years. She was a remarkably bright and smart old
         lady and retained her memory until she had to take to her bed, which
         was about four weeks before her decease. She had a family of seven
         children, six boys and one girl, of whom three sons survive her, one
         being in Maine, one out west, and the third and oldest being Mr.
         MARSHALL WHITTEMORE of this town. The funeral was held at one o'clock
         Sunday p. m., Rev. M. F. Mevis officiating.

         Transcriber's Note: Return of Deaths, Southboro, 1895-1896, gives her
         name as ALTHEA (Crooker) WHITTEMORE, daughter of WILLIAM Crooker.
         Date of death 12 November, 1896. No cause of death listed.
