The Late Benj. Ellsworth of Utica.
Correspondence of Winona Republican, March 27.

Benjamin Ellsworth, who died here on the 20th of March, of paralysis, at the age of 63 years and 8 months, was born the son of a farmer, in Salem, Maine, where he grew to manhood.

At the age of 24 years he went to California and tried life in the gold mines. He remained there six years with very good success, and then returned to Salem, the home of his boyhood, and married Miss Vesta Dodge, and with his wife immigrated to Waupun, Wis., where he lived three years and where his wife died. He then immigrated to Winona county in 1860 and bought the land at Utica, upon which he built up a home that any man might be proud of. During the years 1861 and 1862 he lived at Winona and dealt in grain as a buyer and shipper. In 1863 he took up his residence at Utica, built a warehouse and became a buyer and shipper, which business he followed until the wheat crop failed.

In 1866 he married Miss Emma Campbell of Utica, but formerly of Farmington, Maine. There are five children—all living—by this marriage, aged respectively 21, 17,15,12, and 6 years, who, together with their mother, deeply feel the loss of their kind and loving husband and father. He was never known to speak an unkind word to or in the presence of his family. He was a man known to be very positive in his opinions, progressive in his business pursuits, honest and just in his business, and made his own affairs the business of his life. He built up and carried on a large farm and made the raising of good stock a specialty.

His death is greatly lamented by the village and community in which he lived so long. His burial service took place at his late residence on Saturday, March 22d, and his remains were followed to his last rest by the entire population of the village and community.
