Mr. John Pearce, who died last Friday evening, May 28, was one of our oldest and most esteemed citizens. He was born at Camborne, Cornwall England, July 22, 1816, and was at the time of his death nearly 81 years of age. His early life was shadowed by the death of his mother, and he was the ninth in his family of ten children and was the only one left to cross the river. His early life was the usual one of toil to those born in his station, and at the age of nine years he became a toiler in the mine. Having, when of suitable age, married Miss Mary Nichols, he, with other members of the family, came to Wisconsin in 1842 and in Iowa county he made his home ever after, except for the few years he spent in digging gold in California. In 1848 he buried his wife and in due time was married to Miss Joanna Baker, of Linden, who lived until 1871. In 1873 he was married to Mrs. Kislingbury, who after a union of twenty-four years survives him. He was an industrious and upright man, an intelligent citizen and an ardent republican. But his chief delight was in his church and Bible. . . . The funeral last Sunday afternoon was very largely attended, the entire Sunday school forming a long procession and escorting the remains from the home to the church. He sleeps in the old grave yard - at last free from suffering and at rest.
