Read More	Julius Clark Tilden was born in Hartford, Vermont, September 7, 1809, died at Ames March 23, 1892, of inflammation of the bladder. At the age of 16 years he left home and went to Rochester, Vermont and entered the employ of a brother engaged in the mercantile business, where he lived for 40 years and during that period he carried on business for himself in company with George Lyman. Here he held many civil offices, serving as Colonel of the State Militia and Postmaster of the town under President Franklin Pierce. He was married in 1836 to Eliza M. Briggs of that place. During a few years residence at Potsdam, New York two sons were born. Both died in their infancy. In 1860 death claimed a third son, 9 years of age. In 1861 he buried his beloved wife, and the following year his remaining two sons, aged sixteen and twenty enlisted in the Union Army. He remained in Rochester until 1867 at which time he joined his children in Iowa. In later years he was called upon to mourn the loss of two granddaughters. It was as he looked upon all that remained of one of these dear ones, to whom he was greatly attached, that he said, Another link in heaven, Grandpa will come soon. In the death of Colonel J.C. Tilden this community suffered no common loss. He was a man of marked individualities, and exhibited traits of mind and heart which made him a man of marked influence in every community where he lived. The best life is not often the one that creates the largest sensation, or pushes its personality ever before the public eye, but rather the one that succeeds in imprinting the most and best of itself upon the minds and building it into the characters of those who moved within his circle, be that circle large of small. The funeral services of Mr. J.C. Tilden took place at the Congregational Church on Friday PM at 2 o'clock. The services were conducted by the Rev. E.C. Moulton of Red Oak, Montgomery County, Iowa, formerly of Ames, Rev. Mr. Douglass assisting. The music was by a quartet consisting of Miss Marie Chambers, Miss Mary A. Nichols and Mr. Brown of the IAC and Mr. Carstens, Miss Mary Johnston accompanist. The service was very appropriate and impressive. Mr. Moulton did not preach a sermon; he talked to the friends and relatives concerning the lessons of the beautiful life which Father Tilden had lived among us. ++++ His wife, Eliza M. Briggs, was born in 1814, the daughter of Ephraim Briggs. She died on October 7, 1861 after she jumped into the White River at night. Their son, William Tilden, died on May 24, 1860 at age 9 years. The name of the cemetery in which both were interred was written as No. 2 New in Vermont Vital Records.
