LEE, Charles, Obituary

Death of Charles Lee – On the 12th inst., Chas. Lee, one of the oldest settlers of the town of Martinsburgh, departed this life in the 86th year of his age. He was a native of Westfield, Mass., and came to Lewis county in 1809, when there were but few inhabitants in this then thinly settled region. It is the lot of but few men to live as Mr. Lee has lived, to see about him so many children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren; all his descendents, living and dead, numbering about seventy. As a neighbor and a citizen, he was upright, and in all his business transactions, fair and prompt. His generous heart could be easily touched with another's troubles, and he was ever found ready to give his assistance in all objects of public benefit.
