DIED.


At Gravesville, Calumet County, on the 23rd inst., Rev. Benjamin T. Follett,
aged 80 years, 7 months and 10 days.
One of the most intelligent ladies in the county
furnished the foregoing
item to us and sent the following obituary notice:
"The deceased was a native of Agusta [sic.]
Me. and experienced religion when
he arrived at the tender age of 11 years and
subsequently saw light through the "Mystic Tie."
He forgot the substitute for the "Word" but
remembered enough the entitle him to the
regard, confidence and respect of all who
had the pleasure of his acquaintance.
He has held the position of pastor at Phillips,
Showhegan, Norwich, (or Norwood) Carnville,
Salem, Industry, Mercer, New-Portland,
Chancelorville, Harmony, Madison, Dover,
Stark, Lebec and Milo, in his native State.
He settled at Neenah, Wis. in 1858, but removed
to Gravesville in June of the following year.
He advocated the cause of the Savior, as a
Baptist clergyman, for 47 years and his death
is universally regretted."
