The Painesville Telegraph dated 27 Feb 1873 page 3
In Concord, Feb. 6th, of Consumption, Frank Page, in his 22d year. In childhood and youth Frank had promise of fine ability and large usefulness. He was a good boy, a faithful student and an apt scholar. At an early age he graduated and soon obtained a favorable situation in a telegraph office in Cleveland. To his business he was attentive, and won the respect of his employers and patrons. But his occupation was deleterious to his health. Close confinement and sedentary habits soon impaired his constitution. About a year ago he had a severe turn of bleeding at the lungs. From this time he gradually failed until called to his spirit home. His mother, stepfather and many friends administered to his wants. But "all flesh is as grass, and the glory of men as the flower of grass," and they could not save him. He was ready to depart, and anxiously waited the time when he "could go to sleep and rest easy." Loved ones watched by him as he went forth to meet loved ones gone before. His memory is cherished. The benediction of God's peace rests upon all who mourn.
"Lone are the paths and sad the bowers,
Whence thy meek smile is gone;
But O, a brighter home than ours,
In heaven is now thine own." A. W.
