Other Events and Attributes:

• Obituary: WINTRINGHAM -- At Millbrook, on the 19th of Ninth month, 1891, Jeremiah Wintringham, in the 75th year of his age; a member of New York Monthly Meeting. His was a quiet, peaceful, upright life, in the home loving and indulgent, as a friend kind and sympathetic, in business affairs true and just. As was stated at his funeral he “squared his conduct by the Golden Rule.” In our sorrow there is the beautiful, consoling thought of the blessed reunion in heaven, with his beloved companion, gone not long before.
