    Notes 
    • Poor "Jeb" Under The Sod.
      On Sunday morning last died at the county house Lucien D. Grover, familiarly known as "Jep," at the age of 40 years. He was the victim of strong drink and the irregularities which usually accompany this habit. He was born in Springwater and has spent much of his erratic life in Dansville. He went to California about 1857, and joined a regiment there during the war, and served in it for some time. He was a brother of Leonard Grover, the well known theatrical and operatic manager. He possessed natural abilities which, if they had been properly cultivated and directed, would have rendered his life a bright success instead of the sad failure which it was. He had a fine taste for music, an extraordinary memory of the details of musical compositions, and the peculiarities of different musicians so that he could play on his violin a great variety of pieces from having heard them, and although without a musical education, was a discriminating music critic. This was a few years ago. Within the past four or five years he was gone down, down very rapidly, and became almost idiotic sometime before he died. Poor Jep. His bones now lie in our Greenmount cemetery.
