Richard Peters, an old resident of Penfield, Ohio, died at the residence of his son David Peters, on November 9, 1883.
Mr. Peters immigrated from Harpersfield, Delaware Co., New York in 1850 to Penfield. Deceased was sixty-seven years of age.
In his religious views, Mr. Peters was a Baptist, and had been for years a useful and consistent member of that church. Such was the confidence of his fellow townsmen in his honesty and ability, that he was for several terms elected Justice of the Peace in Penfield.
Mr. Peters was a man of intelligence and sound judgement. Although liberal in his views he was positive in his convictions and would not be swayed by popular opinion. Mr. Peters was a Democrat and was for years the leader of the little "Band of Democrats" in Penfield. His fidelity to principle and useful work as a man, will long be remembered and cherished by those who knew him.
