Died, in Vevay, at the residence of his son-in-law, Mr. Wm. Price January 28, 1855, Mr. John Huston, aged nearly 83 years. Mr. Huston was a native of the North of Ireland, and when a lad of only 17 years came to this Country and settled in Western Pennsylvania. Here he endured the hardships consequent upon a newly settled Country, often being called out to quell Indian disturbances on the Frontiers. Having spent about 13 years in that section of Country, he removed with his little family to the infant State of Ohio, in 1802. Here he again encountered the difficulties and hardships of a life in a newly settled Country. During his residence in Ohio, War broke out with England and he was among the number that General Hull ingloriously surrendered into the hands of the English at Detroit. His nationality not being discovered, he was soon discharged on Parole of Honor and returned to his family. In the year 1815, he came to this place with his family, again to celebrate another birthday of a Sister State into the Union. In this county he spent the rest of his days except some 15 years which he spent on the other side of the River. Mr. Huston possessed a vigorous constitution, or he never could have endured the toils and hardships of a Frontier life. As a businessman, he was energetic and honest in his dealings--independent in his principles, avowing and doing what he considered right, regardless of what others said or thought. As a religious man, he was educated in the Faith and connected with the Presbyterian Church in the Old Country, and maintained that same Faith during most of his life. While on the other side of the River, there being none of his own order, he united with the Baptist Church. The Hope of his youth failed him not during his reclining years. He lived to a good old age, respected in Life and lamented in Death.
