They removed to New York city where Mr. SHERMAN
716
SHEARMAN.
died in early manhood. Subsequently Mrs. SHERMAN married Paul Hochstrasser, a descendant of one of the old Dutch families of this State, a gentleman of cultivated tastes and rare social accomplishments, whom she survived nearly thirty years. In all the relations of life, whether as wife, mother, or friend, she performed her part well and faithfully. Possessed of a retentive memory, and blessed with a sweet disposition, it was at once instructive and pleasant to be in her company. In her last moments, surrounded by her children, grandchildren and great- grandchildren, when the tired heart, which had throbbed for more than four score years, demanded rest, she had no regrets, expressed no desire to stay, but with Christian resignation, peacefully and without a struggle, passed from earth
' Like one who lies down to pleasant dreams.'"

WATTS SHERMAN was for many years Cashier of the Albany City Bank, and at the time of his death was of the firm of Duncan, Sherman & Co., in New York City. He com- menced his career as Teller of the Ontario County Bank at Canandaigua, and was Cashier of the Livingston County Bank at Geneseo, before coming to Albany, at the organization of the Albany City Bank in 1834. In 1851 he removed to New York City where he became the active manager of the banking house of Duncan, Sherman & Co. Mr. SHERMAN was a man of most rare qualifications for his position. His course was strictly governed by commercial integrity, unswayed by any bias but the interests of his firm, which he knew could be best subserved by a strict adherence to business princi- ples. The maturity of his judgment was constantly apparent, and no man ever possessed a keener appreciation of the character of those with whom he had dealings. In his personal appear- ance he was slender, but his face was peculiar for its delicacy and masculine beauty. His hospitality was munificent.
SARAH M. GIBSON, widow of WATTS SHERMAN, died in New York, March 10, 1878. She was the daughter of the late Henry B. Gibson, of Canandaigua, one of the earliest settlers, and one of the most successful and conspicuous citizens of Western New York. For some years after her marriage Mrs. SHERMAN lived in Albany, where she held a brilliant position in the society of the State Capital. In 1851 she removed to
718
SHEARMAN.
New York. Her house at the corner of Twenty-second street and Fifth Avenue became a favorite resort of the most agree- able and cultivated people of the city, and of the most dis- tinguished foreigners who visited this country. She was fond of art, had a fine knowledge of bric-a-brac at the time when such knowledge was by far more rare than the pretense of it is now. She could, and did use her pen with piquancy and spirit. She travelled much abroad, particularly after the death of her husband in 1865. She was kind and affable to all who knew her, and her very generous nature overflowed in acts of love and charity to all.
