A deep gloom has been cast over this neighborhood by the sudden and unexpected death of Charles SNODGRASS, J.P. who passed to his eternal rest Saturday, midnight, Jan. 26, in his 63rd year at his residence in Passekeag (Kings Co.) Mr. S. had been in declining health for a number of years, but was able to go about his daily duties up to a few days before he received his death summons. He was a member of the Salina Presbyterian Church, having professed religion upwards of 40 years ago. Deceased held the office of J.P. for years. He also took an active part in educational matters and was trustee for many terms. Mr. Snodgrass was a native of Donegal, Ireland and when a youth came over to New Brunswick, as did his father, the late John SNODGRASS, four brothers, James SNODGRASS, Robert SNODGRASS, William SNODGRASS and George SNODGRASS and two sisters. One brother, John, remained in the land of his birth where his mother was laid to rest. Of the above family Charles was the youngest and has since been a resident of Passekeag, where he accumulated considerable property and resided on a snug and comfortable farm. Two brothers survive him, James, the eldest of the family, in his 87th year and George. Mr. Snodgrass was twice married and by his first wife leaves six children, viz. Charles G. SNODGRASS, Thomas C. SNODGRASS, Mrs. Wm RUSSELL, Mrs. Harry MURPHY, all of Massachusetts, Mrs. Robt. HODGIN and Fred M. SNODGRASS of Passekeag.
