Wayne township lost her oldest and most respected citizen when Felix McLOCHLIN died at his home in that township last Friday. Mr. McLochlin was born in Ireland 87 years ago, but the greater part of his life was spent in this county. He was one of six voters in Wayne when that township was organized. He was educated for the priesthood, but was disqualified for that service by marrying. Six children were born to Mr. & Mrs. McLOCHLIN, four of which are still living, the one son, Edward [McLOCHLIN], having served two terms as county commissioner. He was a good neighbor, and the funeral was largely attended Sunday. In his earlier life Mr. McLochlin was one of the finest scholars in Fulton county, having been one of the pioneer teachers in his township. As a testimonial to his memory the teachers of Wayne, at their last institute passed resolutions in which they alluded in a complimentary manner to his life work.
