Charles Patterson

Charles Patterson, a respected citizen of Walden, passed away Sunday evening, December 7th. He had been in declining health and was unable to do any work for the past eight years. Charles Patterson was the only son of Isaac and Laura [Locke] Patterson. He was born in Walden in 1845, being 74 years old at his decease. On May 13, 1868, he married Delia Rollins of Potton, P.Q., who has very tenderly cared for him in his years of almost helplessness. To them were born two sons, Henry, who died at the Patterson homestead in 1914, and Roy, with whom he has made his home for several years. Mr. and Mrs. Patterson were the kindest of neighbors; ready to help all in trouble. The funeral was held at the M.E. church, Tuesday, p.m. Interment was at the North Walden cemtery. Among those from out of town to attend the funeral were: Mr. and Mrs. Carl Rollins of Barre, Will Rollins of Greensboro Bend, Mr. and Mrs. Walter Sawyer of St. Johnsbury Center, Mr. and Mrs. Harvey Rogers of Cabot, John and George Richardson of Greensboro, Mr. and Mrs. Harold Richardson of North Walden. An only sister, Mrs. Minda Richardson, of Rutland, who had very recently visited him, was not present at the funeral. The family, and especially Mrs. Patterson, have the sympathy of their neighbors and friends.
