Death of a well know farmer. The community was startled at the early part of last week by the announcement of the death of Mr. Jacob H. Pollitt, a well known farmer of Somerset County, resident about seven or eight miles from Princess Anne. The cause of his death was pneumonia. Only two weeks before his death he was in town and was as hale hearty and genial as was his manner always. His death coming less than three months after the death of his brother, Josiah M. Pollitt makes it especially noteworthy and regrettable as it removes in such rapid succession two sterling citizens from that neighborhood whose loss will be felt very much by their neighbors.
Jacob married Amanda Morris, daughter of James Morris and Mary (Polly) Pollitt, on 23 May 1866 in Worcester Co., MD.1 (Amanda Morris was born on 17 Jul 1828 in Worcester Co., MD,7 8 9 10 11 12 died on 25 Jun 1908 in Somerset Co., MD 7 and was buried about 28 Jun 1908 in Zion Cemetery, Meadow Bridge Rd., Worcester Co., MD.)
