MRS. MARY FARRAR. - On pages 161 and 162 is a register of the family of the Rev. Joseph Farrar, the first minister of Dublin. A letter from Rev. S. F. Clark, dated Jan. 14, 1854, informed us that Mrs. Farrar was still living in Petersham; and, as she would be one hundred years old, Feb. 4, 1855, her friends pro- posed to take her to church on that day. This was done, as the follow- ing letter from the Rev. John J. Putnam will show : -
" PETERSHAM, Feb. 6, 1855. " REV. DR. LEONARD.
"Dear Sir, - I hasten to answer your inquiries relative to Mrs. Mary Farrar, of this town. She has lived to complete a century; and, on Sunday last, celebrated her one hundredth birthday by attending public worship at the Unitarian Church. The day was one of the coldest of this in- clement season. She walked with a firm step to her slip, stood unsupported during the singing, and remained after the congre- gation was dismissed to participate in the communion service. Her presence gave great solemnity and impressiveness to the occasion. In the same slip was a brother of hers, now in his ninety-seventh year, and in good health. The hymns were sung in old tunes, such as Old Hundred, Mear, and St. Martin's, to revive the recollections of the past. Prayer was offered by Rev. Mr. Willson, former pastor of the church of which the centennarian is a member, and a discourse preached by myself, on " Vir- tuous Old Age," from the words, "The hoary head is a crown of glory, if it be found in the way of righteousness," Prov. xvi. 3.
"Very truly yours, "JOHN J. PUTNAM."
