About 2o'clock in the afternoon dies Otho Stevens after a long andtedious illness of 22 days, much lamented by his relations andfriends, he being a loving brother and a faithful friend. He wassensible to the last breath he drew, and sensible of hisapproaching near another world, which did not in the leastruffle his spirits. But he seemed to have his hope firmly placedin God."Hampstead records state he was b. in 1722, Gloucester recordssay 1726.Hampstead records say he d. in 57 & 59
