Chase E. Osgood, while listening to the sermon by his cousin, Rev. A. Morrill Osgood, in the Congregational church Sunday morning, had a bad spell and had to be carried to his home. He did not rally and at ten minutes after midnight Tuesday morning he passed away. Chase Ebenezer Osgood was born in the Lane district 19 Jun 1839, and died 1 Sep 1908, at the age of 69, thus fulfilling a dream he had when a boy of 12 that he was to die in the fall after he became 69. His parents were Ebenezer Osgood and Abigail Fox, the latter dying at 84 in 1896 as Mrs. Jonathan Gove, widow.

Mr. Osgood had the distinction of having been married seven times, twice to the same one. He married first Augusta Batchelder, second Louisa Jane Batchelder, third (1856) and fifth Kate Crowell-Lenox, fourth Eliza Wiser, sixth Flora J. Crowell, half-sister to Kate Crowell. By his second wife, who died 26 Apr 1865, at 21, he had one son, George S., now 45 years old, living in Haverhill, MA, unmarried who has taken oversight of his father in declining years. By the third wife he had one son, Willie L., who died in 1868, aged one and a half years, and a daughter, now Mrs. Grace Abbie Davis, of Newburyport.

Chase Osgood joined the Congregational church in 1857 and has been a constant attendant all his life. He belonged to no fraternity. He was very fond of reading and was a quiet, inoffensive and amiable man, and of agreeable manners and well-known to his fellow-citizens. The funeral service will be at the late home Thursday afternoon at two, his pastor, Rev. A.H. Thompson, officiating. He will be buried in Pine Grove cemetery in the Osgood lot near his father and mother and close to the wife of his youth, Louisa Jane, and to his wife, Eliza J. (Wiser), who died in 1899, February 23, at 49. He had been divorced from the other wives. The Osgood family has been favorably connected long with the history of Raymond.
