He was sixty years of age.¹ From an obituary in the Jersey City "Argus": 18 May 1875 Melancthon S. Wickware, formerly a wealthy property owner of this city, died this morning of ald [sic] age and general debility at the Almshouse at Snake Hill, where he taught the children. He was somewhat over sixty years of age. About ten years ago he was an Alderman of this city, and was for a long time a member of the Board of Education, of which Board he was also at one time clerk. He used to carry on a wholesale provision business in New York, and was at one time a man of considerable property. Late reverses, however, swept his fortune away and left him in penury. About two months ago he accepted a position as schoolmaster at the Almshouse, and held it until his death, discharging the duties of his trying position with a kindness that made him beloved among the little ones whom he taught. He was a life long Democrat, and warmly defended it, ever, against all calumnies leveled against it. Melancthon was buried at the First Reformed Church of Passaic Cemetery.¹
