In Adams, N. Y., July 19th, 1865, Deacon David Maxson, in the 77th year of his age. Deacon Maxson was born in Westerly, R. I., Sept 27th, 1788, being the second son of Asa Maxson. He removed, when a lad, with his parents, to Petersburg, Rensselaer Co., N. Y., where he professed religion and united with the Seventh-day Baptist Church of Petersburg, under the pastoral care of elder Satterlee. About the year 1822, he removed with his family to Alfred, Allegany Co., N. Y., where he united with the first Alfred Church, of which he was chosen deacon. In 1834 Dea. Maxson again removed, with his family, to Adams, Jefferson County, where he united with the Seventh-day Baptist Church of Adams, of which he remained a faithful member to the time of his death, serving it as deacon. He was a man of untiring industry, stern integrity, and strong denominational principles, sustaining an unspotted character, and an enviable reputation in all the positions and relations of his life. As a Christian, he was ever noted for his humility, consistency, and faithfulness in attending to all the appointments of the church. His loss will be sorely felt by his family, the church, and the community in which he lived, as well as by a large circle of distant relatives and friends.
