    Obituary:
    Another Civil War Veteran Passes Away
    Lyman Dudley Mason, 85, a resident of Orange the past 14 years and a well-known Civil War veteran, died Saturday evening at 10:30 o'clock in the home of his daughter, Mrs. Frank E. Pearson of 39 Winter Street. Death was the result of old age. Although his condition during the past few weeks was serious there was scarcely a day when he was not up and dressed. Mr. Mason was born in Upton, the son of Noah and Cynthia Dudley Mason, and he lived in that town until he was a young man. His parents brought the Hastings place in Warwick and he was living there when he enlisted for the Civil War in August 1861. He joined Co. A, 1st Massachusetts infantry, which was recruited in Worcester, and he saw three years of hard service. Included in the engagements in which he participated were Roanoke Island, New Berne, Second Bull Run, Chantilly, Camden, Wilderness, Spotsylvania, Cold Harbor and he was also under fire at the bloody battle of Atietam. Returning to Warwick after the War he was married in 1866 to Ellen M. Delva, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Calvin Delva of that town. The couple lived in Warwick and Upton for a time and then moved to Chelsea where for 36 years Mr. Mason owned and operated the Broadway Billiard Parlor in Chelsea Square. This was destroyed at the time of the Chelsea fire, but Mr. Mason went into business again for a short time. He retired from active work 14 years ago and the couple came to Orange to make their home. Mrs. Mason died in 1915 and Mr. Mason had since made his home with his daughter, Mrs. Pearson. Few men had a more even disposition, than did Mr. mason and it is doubtful if he had an enemy in the world. He was good-natured at all times and was a man with whom people liked to associate. He was a member of the Chelsea Grand Army post and when a resident there, was active in its work. He leaves two daughters, Mrs. Pearson and Mrs. Harry McPhail of St. Stephens, N.B., four grandchildren and three great grandchildren. The funeral was held Wednesday afternoon at two o'clock in the Pearson home, and the Rev. A.A. Blair officiated. Burial was in Central cemetery
    .
