    Notes: An Esteemed Citizen Joins the Silent Majority.

    There died at eight o'clock this morning, John Wilson Parrott, a native of Pembroke, Maine, aged 73 years coming November 16th next. His decease occurred at the residence of his son, Levi Parrott, No. 811 Thirteenth street, this city. The deceased was one of the most unassuming of men, and spent his life honorably, faithfully, and with a quiet dignity that merits the applause too often accorded to vain titles and fictitious worth.

    At the age of 25 he was married in Lubec, Maine, to an estimable lady, who survives him. In 1848 they removed to Portland, where until the Centennial year they continued to reside. High on the list of gallant comrades of the Grand Army of the Republic are enrolled the names of more than ole (sic) descendant of John Wilson Parrott. Ten years since he came to Oakland, where up to a week ago he has quietly pursued the even tenor of his way, making many friends and unostentatiously following the honorable path of duty marked out by himself in the years of his youth.

    He was the father of Mrs. Mariner, of Seventeenth street, this city; of Albin S. Parrott, engineer of the steamer Solano, and resident of Benicia; of Mrs. Weldon of San Francisco; of Mrs. Dodge of Portland, Maine; of Mrs. Stout of this city, and of Albin S. Parrott, the son, at whose residence his decease occurred. The funeral of this estimable man will occur on Saturday from his late residence.
