Liverpool a few years since: by an old stager
Aspinall, James
Liverpool (England) -- Biography; Liverpool (England) -- History
{160} We copy with much pleasure the following note, which appeared in
the _Albion_ of the 2nd August, 1862:—“OLD ABRAHAM LOWE.—_A Subscriber
says_, ‘The writer of the interesting papers upon _Liverpool a Few Years
Since_ has fallen into an error, which I wish to correct. “Old Abraham
Lowe, the huntsman,” did not end his days in poverty, but enjoyed a small
annuity, which was purchased for himself and wife for their joint lives,
by subscription among those who had enjoyed his services for so many
years. This fund was, I believe, under the care of the Messrs. Fletcher,
of Allerton, by whose kindness and attention the latter days of the
veteran were well protected.’”
