Nearly a Century Old - Garrett, father of M.C. Fitzmaurice, of Snohomish, says the Son, is the oldest person in Snohomish county if not in the state. "Grandpa," as he is familiarly known, is 99 years old. He is hale and hearty; has never been sick a day in his life; has all his faculties; can read without glasses; write a legible hand, and walk to the neighbor's without feeling the least wearied. He is a good conversationalist; can converse on any subject. He took the pledge from Father Matthew, the great temperance advocate, 68 years ago, and in that time, not even for medical purposes, has he ever broke it. His wife died in California three years ago at the ripe old age of 92.
