He was ce: rs- of a generation which, almost alto-ith gether, he outlived. A man of sim- ca m- pie tastes, of a serious mind, who a ito held industry to be among the cardi- tn he nal virtues and was, withal, an in- tri ife I tensely human man, he was a sharp- lig ly defined and distinctly interesting ur v-1 character. ' itMr. Frost did his full share - in ca le- the great work of clearing this vicin- wl ful ity of its primeval wilderness. He •lie was a man of character and force inthe early times of the county, and in ^dd his old age he never lost his native ick interest in the soil, its development be I and its future. Though he had outlived most of liis associates, he never became wearied of life, and never ceased to be one of the most interesting of men to converse with. His Ci death is a sadness to a very great number of friends, and to the relatives, who will miss his counsels and the fellowship of his presence.hnahisng
