 John Dill Biographical Sketch from Beers History of Warren County, Ohio
JOHN DILL, retired farmer; P.O. Mason; was born in Orange Co., N. Y., in 1799; is a son of John Dill.
Dill is now (1881) in the 83rd year of his age, and, though bowed down with the weight of these many years, his mind is yet unimpaired; his once strong frame is racked by the tortures of rheumatism, and he, like the oak, must succumb to the power that cannot be resisted.
Dill is a modest and unassuming gentleman, a man whose ways, whose deeds and actions, have always been formed from the principles of truth and justice, and, during his long and eventful career, no imputation of the taint of dishonor is traceable to any of his dealings, which have been extensive in the extreme.
