Scholfield of Montville, Al- most a Centenarian, Passed Away Monday. GREENEVILLE NEWS Services in St. Mary's Church on Christmas Day—Personal Notes. u 1t Just as he Had made the last stroke i of the pen which attached his signa- ture to a deed of his property to the Massasoit Mfg. Co., Charles F. Scholfield, one of the oldest restdents of the town of Mont- ville, passed away at his home in Oak- dale Monday. Mr. Scholfield was 89 years and 6 months of age, but he has been in fairly good health and was quite capable of transacting business. Mon morning Town Clerk Charles I N. Chappell was called to witness the deeds that transferred the property. Percy superintendent of the ssasi s mill, took the town holfield’s home in his automobile. Mr, Scholfield seemed to be in his usual health and discussed R ! the terms of the sale intelligently. The owski of North Main|dead was read over and finding ev- ing friends in New Lon- | erything to, his satidsfaction he at- | 5 | tached his signature.

Town (‘lor‘-kbc\"hpappgll passing several davs in Brockton, ped the aged man in his arms Mass. and straightened him up. There was | another gasp and death had ensued. A hurry call was sent to Dr. Wil- son, who decided that death was due to the unusual excitement caused by | the sale of the property, although Mr. Scholfield did not give any evidence of being unusually disturbed until the sudden change came. Mr. Scholfield was one of the pioneer woolen manufacturers in this part of the country. He began business on the Oxoboxo stream long before many of the present mills were built and kept up his activities until long after the allotted span of life had passed. He manufactured satinets and other goods and in the old days was a fre- quent visitor to this city, where he found a ready market for a part of his goods. He was a kindly old man, who re- tained his faculties to a wonderful ‘dvgrce. He owned a considerable amount of property in Montville, and was highly esteemed as a business man of high ideals and of sterling integ- rity.
