and daughter of Nathan and Betsey (Cook) Comstock. Mr. Comstock was the father of three children: Adam, Nathan and Elizabeth. Ile was a man of more than average ability. and the various and important official posi- tions which he was called upon to fill is indic- ative of the esteem and confidence extended to him by his fellow- citizens. His character is well illustrated in an article written of him at the time of his deeease, which is as follows: "He was of modest and retiring manner, possessing rare ability, great inde- pendence of character, a stern integrity and a warm heart, and all the characteristics of a true and noble gentleman. Ile was remark- ably unselfish and self-sacrificing, ever ready to lend his counsel or render assistance to those in need. Ilis great aim in life was to learn how to live and not bow to die. With him the fear of death faded before the brighter dawn of reason. During his sick- ness he was gentle and patient, and grate- fully appreciated all that was done for him. Ile suffered much, but never complained. IIe was conscious to the last, and deatlı finally came as a peaceful sleep."
Mrs. Comstock continues to reside at their pleasant home near the village of Arcadia, where she and her husband passed so many happy years of their lives.

His brother-in-law had lived on the place and had made some im- provements, including a house, etc. In 1863, when he moved here, Mr. Rebhahn purchased an eighty-acre tract in the same seetion. He continued to cultivate his farm with success, and in 1880 made another addition to his landed estate by the purchase of 120 acres, also in section 1. It had a good house on it and was fairly improved, and he has since erected a barn. Mr. Rebhahn now has about 300 acres under cultivation, and his farm is regarded as one of the finest in the county.
