ARER FIFTY

RE THIS cm TWO LADIES COME FROM MASS WHO LIVED HERE AND MOVED AWAY IN 1859. Search for Grave of Father, Wm. H. Tilton A Contractor on the Pennsy. Ry. Find Locations. After an absence of over fifty years, from Plymouth, Mrs. Albert C. Swain of Falmouth Mass., and j Mrs Charles M. Bumpus of New Bedford Mass., returned f to this city, Saturday night. They are sisters, and are here on a reminiscent journey for a two-fold purpose first, to visit the scene of the former's birth, and the jrrave of their father, and secondly to celebrate the birthday of Mrs. Swain among the memories and scenes of a bygone day. The ladies who were very small children, when with their mother, they removed from Plymouth, back to their eastern home late in the year of 1859, arrived in Plymouth, their one-time home, and did not know a living person here. With the assistance of a representative of the Tribune, the ladies keate,d the places where they lived when in Plymouth. Mr. Norman Woodward,, our long esteemed citizen, recollected the name of their father, William Henry Tilton, and thanks to his faithful memory, the locations were determined. Mrs. Swain, who was Miss Anna G. Tilton, was born in a house which stood just south of where the Methodist church is now located. The stiucture itself has been long removed. Their father, eleven months after the birth of his youngest daughter, died in a house which was located adjacent to, and south of the present residence of Dr. J. S. Martin, on north Center street. This hous has also been replaced in the march of time, by another dwelling. It was with some difficulty, that these two scenes were located, and Monday the two ladies spent the afternoon at the Oak Hill cemetery, seeking the grave of their father which lias been unvisited in all of these fifty-one years. "Building of Railroad. The building of the Pittsburg, Ft. Wayne and Chicago railroad brought the Tilton family to Plymouth. Their home was in New Bedford Mass. Mr. Tilton, was by occupation, a contractor, and in pursuance of his work became located at Cincinatti, Dayton and other. points in Ohio. In the latter city, he received the contract for laying the steel rails for the new railroad to be constructed between Pittsburg and Chicago, which has sirvee become a part of the great Pennsylvania System. He first came to Plymouth in the year 1850, and was joined by his wife, and daughter Clara (Mrs. Bumpus) and two sons, two years later. They resided in the house above mentioned, south of the present Methodist church, which was before the construction of that ediface. In this house the youngest child Anna was born, on Oct. 23rd, 1S58. On Sept. 15th, of the next year, Mr. Tilton died, and the widow with her four children, returned to their old homestead in Massachusetts, in November of 1&59. The family has resided in and about New Bedford ever since. The mother died on May 9th, 1895. The two sisters who grew to womanhood in the Puritan ctati. throughout their entire liv-s cherish ed the memory r.f their we.-ternM home, th c-er of their early child hood, and the grave of their father, and for vears planned .i 'irn to Plymouth Indiana r-v?. the M memories. Their final arrival here. Saturday rnght, wa- ?tn evn or l"nr lives. They have tak yi ionis at ti e Emanuel Price home, and intend to spend several davs here, as they say they do not expect to very see Plymouth as-ain. Mrs Swain, celebrates her birthday on next Sunday Oct 23rd. when she will be in the vicin ity of her nativity, which occurred in Plymouth, fifty-two years ago. Quaint Customs Recalled. " The return to Plymouth of th two ladies, recalls quaint customs, which were in vogue fifty years ago. The elder sister Clara, who is Mrs Bumpus, was five years of age, when she came to Plymouth with her moth er. She became a menber of the Presbyterian Sunday School here un der the tutorship of the late A. P. Elliott. She recalls the kindly gen tleman very clearly, and preserves the recommendation written by that gentleman for her transfer, when she finally left Plymouth. It shows that she was "a good little girl", and is plainly legible. There is some oldfashioned spelling in the letter which was penned by an able scholar. The letter is as follows: To All whom it mav Concern . T the undersigned in Compliance with a Resolution offered at our Sabbath School, do earnestly recommend

US

Miss Clarriq Tilton to the watch and care of any Evangelical Sunday School to which Divine Providence may direct her. She was one of our best and brightest scholars. We do truly regret her departure from this school. But pray that she may soon find another and better Sunday School. She is a good girl of Studious Habbitts, and regular in attendance to the Sunday School. We hope that she may always be as faithful and we feel that heaven will Bless her, and strew her bright path with tlowers. Clarrie if we meet no more on this side of the grave may we meet in the great Sabbath School, far beyond t he skies. A. P. Elliott, Superintendent,

P. S. S. Plymouth Indiana. Ply mouth, November 1st, 1859. Mrs. Bumpus cherishes the little document, and regrets that she and her teacher did never again meet on this side of the grave. She was always called "Clarrie", by her Sunday Sehend teacher. Have Beautiful Home. The ladies have a large collection of views of their home cities at Fal mouth and New Bedford Mass. The husband of Mrs. Swain, is the captain of an ocean yacht, and their address is Box 44 Woods Hole, Mass. But one of their brothers is living. He is Oeorge (J. Tilton, and resides at Fairhaven Mass., just across the river from his sister. The other brother, William Henry Junior, died several years ago. The ladies are collecting a large amount of souvenirs of Plymouth views etc., which they are sending home and which they will preserve. They were fortunate in finding some post cards, containing the location of the scene of their home, in which their father died, on north Center street. The ladies re mark on the beauty of the little city of Plymouth. They are charmed with the people whom they havo met, and say that their sojourn here, so far has been extremely enjoyable. There is a touch of sadness to their mission. The memory of bvgone lays, and friends now long passed away together with the fine, but sad autumn weather, brings a lump in the throat of the listener who eontemplates the rapid flight of time and wonders what the future holds ir store for him. Building of Railroad Another relic, which the ladies left at the Tribune office, is an old hand bill, printed on an old hand press, in letters most quaint. The bill is advertising for "workmen, to be employed in the track laying "work. The wording is as follows: 100 Men Wanted. Plymouth la., on the August 10th, 1S58. One hundred rood LABORING HANDS wanted mmediately, on the line of the Pittslurg. Ft. Wayne and CHICAfiO, KAIL ROAD, from Plymouth to the Joliet Crossing. Laborers and Track Layers from $1.00 to $1.50 per day. Passed free from Lima. ROACH & TILTON. Track Layers. It will be noticed that the old fashioned way of abbreviating Indi ana was "la" instead of "Ind." as is now correct. The bill is printed on paper, made from rags, and is entire and well preserved. Syrians Naturalized. Naturalization papers were taken iit bv Syrians from Bremen Mon day. The papers are issued by County Clerk J C. YVhitesell. Ceo. Barnes of Bourbon, the local tailor also took out paper. He is of English nationailtv. Moves to Plymouth. Mr. and Mrs. Henry Parker, who recently sold their farm west of Plymouth are moving to this city, and will occupy the Lawrence Linkenhelt lesidence on west (iarro street Their son L. II Parker and wife of Chicago, spent Sunday here. AT RECORDER S OFFICE HERE TWO MORE FIELD EXAMINERS ARE INVESTIGATING RECORDS OF COURT HOUSE OFFICE.
