        South Hadley Falls
        
        JONATHAN BURNETTE, 79, died at the Northampton
      insane asylum early this morning and his body was
      brought to his up-town home this afternoon. MR.
      BURNETTE had been out of health for about six years,
      insanity having devoloped. Five years ago this week
      he was taken to the Northampton asylum, where he
      has since remained. It was a hopeless case from
      the start.
        JONATHAN BURNETTE was a native of South Hadley,
      being the son of JOHN BURNETTE. He was a carpenter
      by trade and had always followed his vocation. In
      1849 he got the gold fever and went to California,
      remaining there several years. He was twice mar-
      ried. His first wife was ELIZA JUDD, sister of
      DEACON HARVEY JUDD. There was one daughter born to
      them, MRS. AIDEN GRAVES. His second wife was a MISS
      AYERS of Belchertown, who now survives him with
      three children, JOHN, GALON and MRS. O. W. ADAMS
      of Holyoke. The funeral will occur Monday.
