Dear Mr. H. W. Gross:

It is with the deepest regret, that we, the officers, teachers and members of the Danboro' Union Sunday School, accept your resignation as superintendent.

We lose a superintendent whose life has been marked by the most genial companionship and devoted Christian character.

In you we have recognized a worker whose individual fidelity has been the means of inspiring the young people and adding endurance and courage to the older ones.

In you we have seen the Christian in belief, in experience and in example.

In you we have noticed a church mem- ber in profession, in loyalty and in work.

In you we have seen a Bible student in teachableness and in thoroughness ..

You have been a teacher in knowledge and a teacher in tact and we will be grateful for continued services.

All have profited by your sympathy. and helpfulness. .

The members of your family deserve their share of credit for the help they have been. Those were happy Sunday School days when the entire family gath- ered in the chapel from Sabbath to Sab- bath. Every man, woman and child have felt for you all in the sad affliction which has overtaken one of your children and one of our scholars.

God be praised that He gave you the talent to do so much for us, and may . He continue to give you and us strengtli to bear what lies before us.

And we would not be forgetful of your helpmate who has stood so faithfully by you.

Again, we desire to express our grate- ful appreciation of the services you have so faithfully and conscientiously ren- dered, and may our relationship cease with Mizpalı.

HON. WEBSTER GRIM, of Doyles- town, representative of Bucks county, in the upper house of. the state legis- lature, was born in Nockamixon town- ship, Bucks county, Pennsylvania, Au- gust II, 1866, and is a son of Dr. George W. and Elizabeth P. (Koons) Grim. On the paternal side his ancestors were early German- settlers in what is now Montgomery county, the pioneer ances- tor being doubtless Adam Greim, who emigrated from Rhenish, Bavaria, ar- riving in Philadelphia in the ship "An- d'erson." Captain Hugh Campbell, Au- gust 25, 1751. The family of Grimm, though for several generations, residents of Prussia or Rhenish Bavaria, trace their descent to early Franks who were residents of that part of Gaul which be- came later Normandy, whose descen- dants became allied with those of their Norse conquerors before their migra- tion to the Rhine provinces about the tenth century.

The earliest American ancestor of Senator Grim of whom we have any definite record was George Grim, who was a resident of Upper Salford town- ship, Montgomery county, Pennsylvania. He married Elizabeth Favinger, also of German origin, and they were the pa- rents of three children, one son Adam and two daughters. Adam Grim, son of George and Elizabeth (Favinger) Grim. married Christina Desmond, daughter of Daniel Desmond, who was of English and Irish extraction. Adam Grim was killed on the Reading railroad in 1846, when his son George W. was fourteen years of age.

Dr. George W. Grim was born in Montgomery county, March 13, 1832. He was educated at Washington Hall. Trappe. Pennsylvania, and received a

good academic education. His father dying when he was fourteen years of age, he was cast upon his own resources, and learned the trade of a stove moulder, which he followed for some years. An accident, by which his foot was badly burned in the discharge of his duties, decided him to prepare himself for the medical profession. He resumed his studies at Washington Hall, where he also taught for a short time, and began his preparation for his chosen profes- sion under the preceptorship of Dr. Gross, of Harleysville. He later entered Jefferson Medical College, from which he graduated in 1859. He located in Nockamixon township, Bucks county, and soon built up a large practice, be- coming one of the leading physicians of upper Bucks, and was engaged in profes- sional work there for thirty-three years, dying March 6, 1892. Dr. Grini was a man of good business qualifications and strict integrity, and always held the es- teem and confidence of his community. He was the owner of a fine farm near Revere, the work of which he superin- tended in connection with his profes- sional duties. In politics he was a Dem- ocrat, and he and his family were mem- bers of the Reformed church. Dr.

Grim married in 1857 Elizabeth P. Koons, who survives him, and they were the parents of nine children, as follows: F. Harvey, who succeeded his father as a practicing physician at Revere; George W., a physician at Ottsville, Bucks county; A. Florence, wife of Os- car H. Bigley, of Doylestown. tran- scribing clerk in the recorder of deeds office; Webster, the subject of this sketch; Frank S., a physician at Baptist- town, New Jersey; Harry E., law part- ner with his brother Webster, under the firm name of Grim & Grim, with offices at Perkasie, Pennsylvania: Cora B., wife of William H. Rufe, a merchant at Riegelsville; Nora E., wife of Asher K. Anders, Esq., a successful attorney of Doylestown; and James S., professor of natural science at Keystone Normal School, Kutztown, Pennsylvania.

Hon. Webster Grim, the third son, was reared in Nockamixon and attended the public schools of that township and the Riegelsville high school, and later entered the Keystone normal school at Kutztown, Pennsylvania, from which he graduated in 1887. Prior to his gradu- ation he taught school in Bucks county five years. Immediately after his graduation he began the study of law in the office of Nathan C. James, Esq., and was admitted to the bar of Bucks county in September, 1889. Locating in Doyles- town. he at once began the practice of his chosen profession and built up a lut- crative practice. He was the Democratic nominee for district attorney in 1894, but was defeated by a small majority, re- ceiving a much larger vote than the

other nominees on the ticket. He has been active and prominent in the coun- cils of his party for many years, and has served as delegate to several state conventions, and was permanent chair- man of the state convention of 1903. He filled the office of justice of the peace for Doylestown borough from 1890 to 1900, and did a large amount of official busi- ness. He was elected a member of the school board in 1900 and re-elected in 1903 and is at present the treasurer of the board. In the fall of 1902 he was elected to the state senate, and in the sessions of 1903 and 1905 took an active part in the proceedings of the upper house, introducing a number of merit- orious bills and serving on important committees. In the latter session he was chairman of both Democratic call- ctises, and was the recognized leader of the minority party in the legislature. He was at all times the uncompromising foe of vicious legislation and extravagant appropriations, and his course met with the approbation of his constituents without reference to party. Among the important bills introduced by him was one for the regulation of the speed of and registration of automobiles, which was passed at the session of 1903, and amended upon his motion at the session of 1905: a bill for freeing the toll bridges over the Delaware river between the states of Pennsylvania and New Jersey and New York; and a bill for more ade- quate punishment of the crime of crim- inal assault. He was also instrumental in securing liberal appropriations for Bucks county educational institutions. He was one of the prominent candi- dates before the Democratic state con- vention of 1005 for the nomination for judge of the superior court, and only the decision to nominate but one candidate defeated his nomination.

Being possessed of a natural musical talent he has given much time to tlie organization and perpetuation of mus- ical organizations. He was for five years musical director of the choir of the Doylestown Presbyterian church, and has since filled the position of choir master and organist at the Salem Re- formed church, of which he is a meni- ber. He also had charge of the musical part of the program at the Bucks County Teachers' Institute for many years, and has been the director of the Arion Glee Club for many years, furnish- ing vocal music for entertainments in all parts of Bucks county. He was st- perintendent of the Sabbath school of the Salem Reformed church for twelve years, and introduced a uniform and graded course of study that has since been adopted by a number of other Sab- bath schools in the county and else- where. He has been one of the most active members of St. Tammany Castle. No. 173, Knights of the Golden Eagle,

served as its clerk of the exchequer for several years, and has been a member of the grand castle of Pennsylvania for twelve years and

in May, 1905, was installed as grand chief of

the . order in the state. He arranged, codified and published a digest of the laws of the order which has been in use for several years. He is a past grand of Aquetong Lodge, No. 193, I. O. O. F., of Doylestown, and has filled the position of musical director and de- gree master of that lodge for several years. As such he organized and in- structed a degree staff that has the rep- utation of being one of the best in the state, taking second prize in a com- petition this year before a Committee of the Sovereign Grand Lodge, in which were entries in all parts of the United States. He has been the collector of Lenape Council, No. 1117, Royal Ar- canum, since 1890, and is treasurer of the fraternal accident order, known as the "True Blue." He has served as a director of Eastern Union Building and Loan Society of Philadelphia since 1890, and is connected with a number of other business enterprises. He has prepared and published two directories of Bucks county, and is at work upon a third edition. In August, 1904, he purchased a controlling interest in the Doylestown Publishing Company, the proprietors of the "Doylestown Democrat," daily and weekly, which he has since personally conducted as president of the company, and has greatly improved the standard of the paper.

Senator Grim was married August 9, 1890, to M. Alice Sassaman, daughter of Jacob and Emeline (Wildonger) Sas- saman of Bucksville, Bucks county, and they are the parents of two children, Ruth S. and George W.

She resided with her son Roger at the homestead un- til her death, at nearly ninety, having sur- vived her husband twenty-six years. She was an active member of Falls Monthly Meeting, and frequently preferred to walk to meeting when in advanced years.

for £480, two hundred and eighteen and one- quarter acres of land in Middletown town- ship, now known as "Woodbourne," where he resided the remainder of his life, and in 1905 it is owned and occupied by his descendants. Beside ordinary farming he was a nurseryman, as entries in his cash- book testify, one reading thus: "IIth mo. 22nd 1775. Joseph Lovett bought six New- town pippins and two grafted pear trees for eight shillings." He thus started a business which his descendants have followed to a greater or less extent for over one hundred and thirty years.

Moses Moon was born 10 mo. 9, 1754. Beside following the occupations of his fa- ther as farmer and nurseryman, he also was a noted surveyor. He married Rachel Burges, at Falls Meeting of Friends, and deceased 4 mo. 19, 1822, having resided his entire life at Woodbourne, which he in- herited from his father and bequeathed to his only son James, who adhered more closely to farming than did his predecessors. James Moon married Jane Haines, at Eve- sham Meeting, N. J., 5 mo. 13, 1813, and continued to reside at the homestead until his death in 1855. He left six children : Mahlon, Eliza, Charles Rachel, James H. and Jane C.

Mahlon, the oldest son of James and Jane (Haines) Moon, followed the nursery busi- ness for quite a period of time, atter which Itis brother James H. Moon purchased the greater part of the land. Charles Henry Moon, son of Charles Moon, is a prom- inent surveyor and engineer, and lives on the western portion of the place, he being the fifth generation of the family to occupy these ancestral acres.

James H. Moon, the third son of James and Jane ( Haines) Moon, married Eliza- beth Balderston, in 1853, and settled two miles west of Fallsington, where they still reside with their son, Alfred H. Moon. Of their nine children five are still living : Everett, LL. D., Alfred H., Willett B., M. D., Elizabeth Lactitia, Ph. D., and Rachel, M. D.

Of James and Jane Haines Moon's daugh- ters, Eliza married Morton A. Walmsley, of Byberry, Pa .; Rachel married William Tatnall, of Wilmington, Delaware, and Jane C. married Hon. Jonathan Chace, of Rhode Island.

Of the eleven children which survived Koger Moon, we have partially traced but one line, that of his eldest son James. The descendants of the five sons who survived him are scattered in all directions, although there is proof that many remained near home, the name occurring frequently in this vicinity and in New Jersey. His son William married Elizabeth Nutt ; and settled on Moon's Island in the Delaware River. An account of his descendants is given later. Ann married Jonathan Pursell; Elizabeth married William Janney, 7 mo., 1739, at Falls Meeting and they moved near Water- ford, Loudoun county, Va .; John. Roger and Isaac died without issue. Of the sec-

ond wife's children; John married and left descendants; Mary married John Linton ; Sarah married Daniel Burges; Timothy married Martha Richie; Hannah married Mahlon Hartley, and removed to Ohio; Jasper, unknown.

PRICE FAMILY. Elizabeth Price, sec- ond wife of Roger Moon, was of Welsh origin and a daughter of Reese and Mary Price (or Preese), who settled in Bucks county about the year 1700.

The ancestors of Mrs. Samuel C. Moon, of Morrisville, were Nathaniel and Sarah ( Briggs-Shaw) Price, who emigrated from Rhode Island and settled in Middletown township, Bucks county, near the present site of Langhorne about the middle of the eighteenth century. They were the par- ents of three children; Nathaniel, of whom a more particular account follows: Eliza- beth, married Edward Worstall; and Su- sanna, married Thomas Jones. Sarah (Briggs-Shaw) Price died 10 mo. 22, 1808, in her eighty-seventh year.

Nathaniel Price, son of Nathaniel and Sarah, born February 8, 1759, was received into membership with Friends and married October 18, 1786, Ann Bailey, daughter of Edward and Ann ( Satterthwaite) Bailey, of Bucks county, and had three children : (I) William, born September 14, 1787, died June 4, 1852, married April 18, 1808, Mary Mahan, and had nine children: Cornelius, Mary, John. Deborah, Ann, Amos, Susan, Catharine and William. (2) John, born November 23, 1788, died April 5, 1867, mar- ried Rachel Burgess, daughter of Joseph and Sarah (Matson) Burgess, and had chil- dren : Daniel B., of whom an account fol- lows; Lydia B., Sarah Ann, and Phebe B., none of whom married, living and dying near Fallsington, Bucks county. (3) Edith, born 1790, died 1792. Ann (Bailey) Price died January 8, 1791, and Nathaniel mar- ried (second) December 13, 1792, Mary Spicer, daughter of James and Rachel Spicer, and they were. the parents of four children : (4) Joseph, born March 10, 1793, married October 14, 1821, Eliza Wildman, and had children, Mary and Elizabeth.

3, 1823. He was a successful farmer and died at his residence, Brookdale farm, two miles from Fallsington, Bucks county, March 26, 1891, at the age of sixty-seven years. He married, first, May IS, 1848, Hannah B. Childs, of Le Raysville, New York, and they were the parents of four children : Rachel Anna, married Samuel C. Moon; Clinton, died young; Elizabeth, married John W. Tatum, of Wilmington, Delaware, and has three children-Anna P., Lucy R. and John W. Tatum, Jr .; Mary C., remained single.

THE BURGES FAMILY, with whom the Moon and Price families are much inter- married, are descended from Samuel and Eleanor Burges, who came from England in 1685 and settled in Falls township, on 200 acres of land purchased of William Penn, for one silver shilling per acre, the original deed for which is still in possession of their descendants. This land joined that on which James and Joan ( Burges) Moon settled, and Samuel was probably a brother of Joan Moon. On this tract lying on both sides of the road now leading through the village of Fallsington, all the Friends' meet- ing houses of Falls Meeting have been built. In 1689, when the Friends decided to build a meeting house, Samuel Burges gave them six acres on which the first meeting house and graveyard were located. The first building was of logs and the second of brick. In the latter a school was kept for many years in which the great-grandchil- dren of Samuel Burges, living in 1855, re- member attending, being used as a school after the erection of the third meeting house, a little distant from the first site and now (1905) used as a dwelling house. The fourth meeting house was erected in 1789 on the first location, north of the graveyard and Newportville road, and is still used by one branch of the society. The fifth meet- ing house was built in 1840, when a stone school house erected in 1799 was removed to make room for it, the present school house being erected in 1817. The will of Samuel Burges, made in 1713, mentions wife Eleanor, sons Joseph, Samuel, John and Daniel, and daughters Priscilla and Sarah. Priscilla became the wife of Sam- uel Bunting, and an account of her de- scendants is given in this volume. Sarah married John Hutchinson and an account of her descendants is also given in the Rickey family. Samuel, the son, a member of assembly in 1712, married Ann Snowden, and had three children-Margaret. married Joseph Jackson; Rebecca, married Joseph Church; Ann, died single.
