REV. JOHN M'CAMPBELL HERON

Death of a Clergyman Well-Known in Western New York.

Seneca, March 9 - Intelligence has been received here of the death of Rev. John McCampbell HERON, at Jamestown, Greene county, Ohio, where he had resided a number of years. He was formerly well known in this vicinity, also in Livingston and Monroe counties, in fact the entire Genesee valley, being pastor for some time of the Associate Reformed Church at York. He was son-in-law of the late Joseph RIPPEY, his first wife being Miss Mary Elizabeth RIPPEY.

Later years were spent at Hartford, Conn., and Philadelphia. Ill-health compelled him to give up active ministry and it was during his residence in Philadelphia that he was engaged in work under the direction of the Board of Home Missions. He was a son of Rev. Andrew HERON, D. D., and was born in Rockbridge county, Va., where he spent his boyhood, then moved to Greene county.

Although he had reached the age of 82 years he had been active and energetic. A few weeks ago he fell on the pavement, and sustained a fractured hip, which caused his death. His widow, formerly Miss Mary BLAKESLEY, survives. The interment took place at Zenia, Ohio.
