Coombs said: 'In religion my father has always been a Liberal and requested us to engage a Unitarian preacher to make remarks at his funeral. He died fully in that belief. Mrs. Miller, . . ., was a schoolmate of father's away back in 1811, and Mrs. Miller and he have had many a chat of olden times, and it was amusing to hear them discuss incidents of the War of 1818.'"
