The death summons came very suddenly to Mr. Abraham Varley. For the past year he has been faithfully at work upon his beautiful new house on South Street. He was finishing it up in the most perfect style of architecture, but e'er he was completed he was called home to " a house not made by hands, eternal in the heavens ". Mr. Varley was a good citizen, an industrious and estimable man, one hard to spare from the community. All appreciate his worth, and many were the tears shed at his funeral. Life is full of hard lines and happy are those who can say " Thy will, O. God, not mine be done."

Mr. Abraham Varley was the first burial in Union Cemetery.
From his wife's obituary :
" Her grandfather Bemis bought from the Indians farm lands a mile and a half east of the village which has been a possession of the family till recently, pacing off so many paces long and so many paces wide from a certain tree. Her father gave from his farm the land that now constitutes Union Cemetery, her former husband, the late Abraham Varley, being the first to be buried there.", " For over 40 years she lived in her late home on South Street. "
