Default Age at Death

I'm transcribing a will for the parish of Probus, Cornwall.
One of the men mentioned was William Yeoman Bennett, who set up a charity in Truro that is still mentioned today.

I found a death announcement for him in 1882 and it says "the deceased had reached the advanced age of 62". It shows how things have changed, as we wouldn't say that now.
