Under date of 8 February, 1874, Webb Horton writes, "My mother is living and in good health. She resides at Liberty, Sullivan Co., N. Y. She is in the eighty-seventh year of her age. Her father died aged eighty-eight, and her grandmother, Prudence Schofield, aged ninety-four. She has now living ten children, thirty-seven grandchildren, and nineteen great-grandchildren." This is a very remarkable family--so large and yet so few deaths. It is a rare occurrence to find a family of children, ten in number, the youngest forty-six years old, _all living_. And then so many grandchildren and great-grandchildren living. I have no record of any family equal to it, and doubtless, the number is now (1875), somewhat augmented. IV.
