Obituary

The remains of Henry Gilman were brought here from the Soldiers Home, Bennington, where he has been for a few years, and taken to the undertaking rooms of A. J. Blackmer. Tuesday morning they were taken to East Middlebury, where the funeral services were held at St. Barnabas chapel at ten o'clock. The Rev. John Evans conducted the services and burial was in the family plot in the Prospect cemetery of that village. Mr. Gilman was a Civil War veteran and was a longtime resident of that town. He is survived by one son.
