Hon. LEVI P. STALFORD, whose death oc
curred :tt his home in Browntown on Sunday
last, was one oft lie most prominent citizens,
not only of tlie township in which he had al
ways lived, but the county as weil. He was
horn in Wyalusiug township April 11,1811,
and was in his Tlst year. He was of Irish
descent, his great grand father having emi
grated from Tiperary, Ireland, in 1718. In
May 1702, His grand father came upon the
farm where the Judge was born and rear
ed, it having been inherited by his father,
who died in 1841, when the homestead de
scended to the subject of this notice.
For many years Judge STALFORD WHS ex
tensively engaged in lumbering, but never
neglected his farming interests and was one
of the most intelligent and successful agricul
turalists in this section. Ilis sterling integ
rity. exceptionally tgood judgment, urbane
manners, and benevolent, charitable disposi
tion won for Judge STALFORD the confidence
and esteem of all who had the honor of his
acquaintance. lie was frequently calied to
fill the various offices of trust in the town,
and in 1883 was elected one of the Associate
Judges of the countv. Ii is needless to add,
that in all these stations he discharged the
duties with honor to his constituents and
credit to himself, Had he been an aspiring
politician, he could have reached any posi
tion in the county * •
In 1842 MF. STAFFORD was bjippjly mar
ried TO Miss MARY R. O'CALLAGIUN. Eight
children—four sons and four daughters—were
born to them, seven of.whom are still liviilg*,
theeldcst son having d.ied only t\vo week*
•sine •.
The STALFOUD home was ever a favor
ite resort, A generous welcome always awati
ed the visitor and hospitality was dispensed
with an open hand. Judge STALFORD was
one of Ihe first members of the Bradford
County Historical Society, and for years
filled the office of treasurer. He was seldom
absent from the meetings and was one of the
earliest to suggest the publication of the
county history. Although lie never united
with the church he was a firm believer in the
christian religion and a generous supporter of
the Wyalusing Presbyterian church, being
President of the Board of Trustees. He was
also President of the Cemetery Association.
Yesterday his mortal remains were consigned
to their last resting place 111 the quiet grave
yard where repose the ashes of his fore-fath
ers. The funeral discourse was pronounced
by his beloved pastor and friend, Rev. DAVID
CRAFT, in the presence c" a large concour-e
of friends and neighbors assembled to pay the
tribute of respect to aP 'hat remained of one
who had in his life time commanded their
love and highest esteem.
