| Transciption: | MRS. CHARLES WHEELER, of Speenhamland, whose death we record today, is remarkable as having been the oldest member of the Newbury Congregational Church, having been received as far back as 1825; also as never having ridden in a railway train, and as we believe never having seen such a thing. |
