Died at his home following an operation after much suffering.
Charles Beaumont, for many years a well-known resident of Rockdale, died at his home, on Gordonville Hill, Sunday morning, after a long and painful illness, due to a complication of diseases. More than a year ago he became afflicted with a serious malady of the stomach, and submitted to several surgical operations at hospitals, which afforded only temporary relief.
Mr. Beaumont was 53 years old, and leaves a widow and six children. They are Charles, James, Walter, John and Joseph Beaumont, and Mrs. C. Wesley Hart, of Philadelphia. About five years ago, he purchased the James Scott property on the Mount Hill, at the rear of Rockdale Hall, where he has since lived, and where he died. He was a member of the Crozerville Methodist Episcopal Church, also of Lenni Tribe, No. 86, Improved Order of Red Men, and Benevolent Lodge, No. 40, Independent Order of Odd Fellows. The funeral ceremony of both these organizations was performed at the house on Tuesday evening. The funeral took place on Wednesday from his late residence with interment in Mt. Hope Cemetery.
