| 1278 | SIMON PETER BROWN was a pupil in the schools of his home locality in Union County and later went to school at Lewisburg. He came to Milton about 1867 and there spent the remainder of his days. He began work in the borough as a clerk in the store of William Heinen, remaining there when it was conducted by the firm of Heinen, Etzler & Rauch, and later by the Heinen & Shreyer company. But he did not continue long in the humble capacity in which he began his connection with the business. He became a partner, and after the death of Mr. Heinen the firm became Shreyer, Brown & Co., continuing thus until Mr. Brown withdrew from the association, in 1894. Though unostentatious in everything he did Mr. Brown was recognized as the most efficient worker by all who had any dealings with him. Many of the most important movements in Milton counted him among their most effective promoters. He was one of the organizers of the Milton Water Company and served as director; was for years president of the Milton Gas Company and was one of the directors of the Milton National Bank. He was a faithful member of the Presbyterian Church, and in politics a Republican. His death, which occurred April 28, 1907, was a distinct loss to the community. On March 14, 1882, Mr. Brown married Laura B. Knauff, daughter of John and Susan Clinger Knauff, and she survives him, she and her mother occupying the beautiful home on East Broadway erected by Mr. Brown. | BROWN, Simon Peter (I3906)
|
| 1279 | SIMON PETER BROWN was a resident of the Borough of Milton for 40 years, during which period he was not only considered one of the substantial citizens of that place but also one whose influence counted for much in the promotion of progressive enterprises. He made a great success of his own undertakings, and when he became interested in public institutions, those bearing on the general welfare of the community, he gave them the same thought which made his personal affairs prosper. Intelligent, broad-minded and public-spirited, he was a man whose life, though unassuming and avoiding rather than seeking notoriety, was one of continuous usefulness to his fellow men as well as to those who have the right to claim his attention. Mr. Brown was a native of Union County, Pennsylvania, born August 14, 1843, son of Cyrus and Elizabeth (Wooltrout) Brown whose children were as follows: Mary Ann (who married Aaron Van Buskirk), Daniel, Reuben, Abram, Obediah (died young), Jeremiah (died young), and Simon Peter. | BROWN, Simon Peter (I3906)

She died in 1853. April 29, 1856, he married Sarah, daughter of Jonathan Robbins, of Luzerne county.

| 1285 | St. John’s Student Dies by Own Hand. John Burton Mustin Jr., Driven To Suicide by Low Class Standing and Demerits. Was Popular With Class. (Special Dispatch to the Baltimore America). Annapolis, MD., March 3 – Driven to despair by his low scholastic standing and by the fact that this demerit limit for small offenses had been overrun and that he faced a temporary dismissal, John Burton Mustin, Jr., a member of the senior class at St. John’s College, this afternoon committed suicide at his fraternity house on Prince George street by shooting himself in the temple with a 38 caliber revolver. He was found shortly after he had fired the shot by fellow students and was rushed immediately to the Emergency Hospital where he died within a few minutes. Mustin left the college grounds during the drill hour and went to the Kappa Alpha fraternity house, two blocks from the college green. He was unaccompanied at the time, being one of the few students who were not at the drill. As a member of the official staff of the Battalion of Cadets he was not required to attend military field exercises. Found Unconscious. When he left the campus some of the other students saw him start in the direction of the Kappa Alpha house, and that was the last seen of him until W. Penfield Brown, a fraternity brother and one of Mustin’s most intimate friends entered the building after the drill, about 1 minute after Mustin had left the college. Mustin was found lying on the floor unconscious with a bullet hole in his left temple. Assistance was called and the dying boy was rushed to the hospital. It was from the first hurried examination that nothing could be effective in saving his life and 13 minutes later he expired. Classmates of Mustin say that three days ago he jokingly remarked to them in conversation that if the condition of his student standing didn’t improve he thought that the best thing to do was to shoot himself. They did not notice any depression in his mood as he said this, they said, and took it lightly. Held Class Offices. In his first three years at college Mustin was the holder of a number of class offices having been president of the sophomore and junior classes. He was highly thought of among the students and numbers of the small honors offices of the college came his way. Last fall however his father feeling that the student record of young Mustin was being neglected for the honors aside from studies forbade him to accept any offices during his senior year. During the first part of the year his fellow-students say that Mustin’s studies came along in fine fashion and he seemed to be sure of his diploma. During the last term, which began in January, he begun to fall off in his scholastic work, and in addition to this obtained a number of demerits for small offenses. These demerits, it is said, had piled up until Mustin’s case was under the consideration of the faculty, and it seemed that he was likely to be suspended for the two-week period that is usually given for overrunning demerits. Telegram from Father. Two days ago, the students say he received a telegram from his father in which his parent said that he had planned to come to Annapolis in a few days to talk over the boys case with Mr. Thomas Bell, president of St. John’s. All of these things combined to drive the youth to his act. The students of the college were dazed on learning of the suicide of young Mustin, and the entire college is in mourning. Brown who discovered Mustin after the shot had been fired, was overcome by the shock of the affair, and is tonight being attended closely by members of his fraternity. The parents of young Mustin, who live in Germantown, Pa were informed of his death by Dr. Bell, and his father is on his way to Annapolis tonight. | MUSTIN, John Burton Jr. (I8370)

| 1292 | The "Big Island," after Huling's departure, was practically unoccupied until the Indian troubles had subsided. Its next resident was Isaac Himrod, who combined the occupations of agriculturist and waterman; in 1782, or shortly thereafter, Bethuel Vincent, having returned from Canada, purchased the island from Hulings. When the convenience of the public required it, a ferry was established, the landing on the eastern bank being at the end of Broadway. | VINCENT, Bethuel (I2877)

| 1293 | The (Milton Masonic) Lodge was constituted in the home of David Rittenhouse, which was situated on South Front Street and when it was built, it was intended to be his residence. It was a large three story brick building, but it was leased to Lemuel Stoughton, who conducted it as the United States Hotel. When this building was completed it was considered so high that Mr. Rittenhouse thought it could be used as a shot tower, and accordingly fitted up a place on the roof to drop the leaden globules down into the basement into water. It is unnecessary to state that the experiment proved a failure. The Lodge continued to hold their meetings at this place for only a short time when they removed to the house of Henry Wolfinger. His hotel stood on Mahoning Street and occupied the exact lot on which is now the home of Johnson B. Godcharles. | RITTENHOUSE, David (I3781)

| 1298 | The Cadwallader or Cadwalader name is prominent throughout the early Quaker Meetings where there were at least two unrelated Cadwallader families. Both of those families came from widely separated parts of Wales. That phenomenon occured because in early times in Wales there were no surnames, and the term "Cadwallader" was actually a title of respect or honor granted by someone in authority, usually royalty, for some service rendered. It had much the same connotation as the "Sir" in Sir Winston etc. One such individual, John, the son of John Cadwalader born in 1650, was born in 1676 in Montgomeryshire, Wales where he had recieved the title of "Cadwalader" for outstanding service to his liege. When he came to this land in1697, he found that a surname was essential, and he assumed his title of Cadwallader as his surname. He apparently had been a Quaker in Wales, for he settled and was associated with the Quakers in the region of Chester County, Pennslyvania. He was married to Mary Cassell at the Abington Monthly Meeting on May 28, 1701. His father in law, Johannes Cassel was a Quaker and a weaver who came to this land from Kresheim in the Palatinate area of the Rhineland of France--Germany on Dec 20, 1688. That is the same region from which the original Vores (Vowrs) came, probably during the time of the Hugenot persecutions. He died in 1691, and is buried at Germantown, Pennslyvania. After the death of his first wife, John Cadwalader married Margaret Peters on April 29, 1730. Mary and John Cadwalader were members of the Horshem Monthly Meeting which was a branch Meeting under the Abington, Pennslyvania Monthly Meeting. Warminster in Chester Co. Pennslyvania seems to have become the center for this group of Cadwaladers. This John Cadwalader died in 1742. His known male children, all by Mary Cassel, were Isaac, Jacob, Joseph, and Benjamin. | CADWALLADER, John (I1135)
