NH Patriot 10-16-1845
Robert Knox Jr. has been appointed Postmaster at Epsom, N.H., in place of Benjamin L. Locke.

NH Patriot 10-23-1845
"The State paper can point out the 'individual distinguished' or otherwise, who has effected the removal of Gen. Locke living beyond the limits of Epsom." \endash Hill's print.
"The "State paper" can do no such thing. The reckless falsifier who conducts the 'Great Corporation Advocate,' state that 'probably' the removal was effected 'at the instance' of Col. Pierce. We are authorized to say that Col. Pierce has exerted no influence, directly or indirectly, in relation to the removal and appointment of postmaster at Epsom. No man in Concord, to our knowledge, had the least thing to do with the removal of Gen. Locke. We did not know that any effort was made for his removal, till the notice of the removal was sent to us for publication. Hill must hunt up another 'clique' to hold answerable for Gen. Locke's removal, and other removals of which he complains.

BENJAMIN L. LOCKE
General Benjamin L. Locke, whose death occurred at Winchester, MA., on Monday, was born in Epsom, NH, July 28, 1802. Soon after attaining his majority he became a successful farmer upon his own account, and also engaged in trade. In 1828 he built the Suncook House in Epsom and was its landlord for the long period of 32 years. Under the faithful management of General Locke and his wife, to whom he was married May 5, 1825, the Suncook Hotel gained a widely extended reputation. In civil life he received many local honors, including clerk, treasurer and selectman of his town, and treasurer of the county. For 15 years he was connected with the state militia. He was commissioned captain of company B, eighteenth regiment September 29, 1825; lieutenant colonel June 22, 1830; colonel September 24, 1830; brigadier-general, third brigade, first division July 1, 1834; and major-general of that division June 29, 1838. His last commission he resigned June 10, 1840. In 1866 the deceased removed to Chichester and in 1873 to Winchestor. General Locke was a gentleman of the old school, and a citizen of the highest integrity. Possessed of an active public spirit, he exerted a strong influence for all good works and enterprises. He left a widow, one son, James L. Locke of the Boston & Lowell depot in Boston, and four daughters. The burial will occur at Epsom on Wednesday.
