George W Caldwell died on Aug 31, at the muncipal hospital after a long and painful illness. He was a life long resident of Cambrdige. Since the death of his wife 19 years ago, he had lived with his only daughter Mrs Alfred Archambeau at 60 Plymton St. He was born in Newburyport 79 years ago and was employed for the past 22 years by Fred Hayden the painter. Funeral services were held at Cambridge Cemetery chapel last Friday afternoon at 2 o'clock. The services were conducted by Rev John Wauckel Taylor of Cap Girardeau Mo acting director of Christ Episcopal Church in the absence of the rector Rev Prescott Evarts. Mr. Caldwell is survived by a daughter, the wife of Alfred Archambeau, a brother the wife Caldwell (sic) and a sister Mrs Elizabeth Rafferty of Somerville.
