Funeral of the Late Rev. Mr. Kent at New Haven

Very interesting funeral services were observed on Wednesday, as a last token of affection and respect towards the late Rev. Mr. Kent. The exercises at the house and the introductory exercises at the church were by the pastor, Rev. Mr. Sargent. The principal address at the church was by Rev. S. R. J. Spearu of Middlebury, followed by remarks from the pastor. Rev. A. A. Robertson of Vergennes offered the concluding prayer and pronounced the benediction. A touching incident of the occasion was the expression, just as the remains were to be removed from the church, by Rev. Everts Kent, in behalf of the family, of their loving appreciation of the kindness shown their deceased husband and father during his decline by his friends and neighbors.

The casket was borne by the four Deacons, Doud and Potter, and others. A lot recently purchased in the Evergreen cemetery will await the decision of the family as to the place of final burial.
