| 16317 | Newspaper Obituary - Thursday, December 18, 1884 Pulaski Democrat - Pulaski, New York - Suicide - A Former Pulaski Hotel Clerk, Well-Known All over the County, Hangs Himself - Most of our readers will remember the old Salmon River House of this village, and also its veteran clerk, Milo Stilwell. On Monday morning last, about half past ten o'clock, this experienced hotel man, tired of life, in poor health and unable longer to engage in active business, took his own life. He was found hanging by the neck from a rafter in the stables connected with the Hubbs House at Sand Bank, shortly after he committed the rash act. Mr. Stilwell had been in extreme poor health for some years, and latterly he had been unable to do more than care for himself and hardly that. He had given way to extreme melancholy and depression for some time, and landlord Hubbs had for some days feared that he might attempt the taking of his own life. It appears, however, that he had never been alluded to the matter in any way. From the manner in which the deed was committed, it is believed that the unfortunate man had had the matter under consideration for some time. About an hour before his body was discovered, he was seen by Mr. Lawson G. Calkins, I clerk for the firm of Costello & Curtis. At that time he appeared much as he had formally, there being not the slightest indication of anything unusual about him. Judging from the stable and its surroundings, the rope must have been adjusted beforehand. It was securely tied overhead and a loosely slipping noose constructed through which Stilwell passed his head. In order to reach the rope he must have clambered upon the breast high partition between the stalls, adjusted the slip knot about his neck and then jumped off to strangulation and a horrible death Milo Stilwell was a married man, but had not seen his wife, we are informed, for a number of years, she having lived in the West for a considerable time. He is said to have been nearly sixty years of age but he appeared to be much younger. The deceased was a brother of George Stilwell of the Ringland House and also of Mrs. H. A. Dillenbeck, of this village. His relatives, of whom there are a number in this county, are overwhelmed with grief at his tragic fate. Coroner Caldwell held the inquest on the case Monday afternoon, assisted by the following named Jurymen: N. Hazzard, L. H. Holland, John Simpkins, G. S. Sweet, J. W. Stout, L. L. Jones, Levi Gleason. The witnesses sworn were: George L. Hubbs, H. H. Walker, A. T. Ackley, Irving G. Hubbs, B. F. Abbott, Dr. W. H. Cox, Dr. J. M Brown. The evidence was in accordance with the above statement. The verdict was that "he came to his death by his own hands by hanging with a rope by the neck in the Hubbs Hotel barn while laboring under a fit of temporary insanity." | Stilwell, Milo (I50844)

Stricken down in the full tide of life, she leaves a young and much loved child, an only son, who is too young to realize the great loss he sustains, and an affectionate husband whose heart is well-nigh broken under the load of sorrow and anguish resting upon it. Mrs. Meacham was a general favorite with all who knew her, and she was especially beloved by the young married people of this village. to whom the Senate intelligence of her sudden demise comes with a particularly saddening effect. Her trust was firmly fixed on something brighter and better beyond and she rests, not as one without hope.

Meacham, and daughter of Mr. C. Wesley Woods, of typhoid fever. The dark shadow of the bereavement seldom falls on a happier home, or on one of the fairer promises for the future than that of which is made desolate by this sad affliction. The deceased was born, reared, and educated in this community. She possessed rare graces of loveliness, in disposition and person, which won for her admiration and love from all of her acquaintances. At 17 years of age, she made a public consecration of herself to the service of her Lord and Redeemer, by uniting with the Congregational church in this village. That religious profession she has always honored in a sincere, devoted, and most exemplary Christian life. She was married August 29th, 1871, to a young man of this village of high business standing, and of irreproachable character, both having been long devotedly attached to each other. Their domestic happiness seemed consummated in the birth of a son about one-year-old at the time of his mother's decease. Her last sickness was attended with delirium, the closing stages of disease, with but occasional and brief lucid intervals. In one of these conscious periods, she said cheerfully and serenely to her husband, bending over her, that she was going home, and asked him to follow her. Her record of life is an affectionate daughter, a devoted wife, a loving mother and a faithful Christian. | Woods, Martha Ann (I62906)

Outterson, aged 30 years, 4 months and 17 days. Mrs. Outterson was born in Orwell, and was the daughter of Charles J. and Fidelia C. Brooks.

She then went to Oswego to assume the care of her invalid sister, Mrs. Bush, whom she has faithfully attended since, resigning the charge only in her death. She was an earnest, active member of the M. E. Church in Sunday school, in both of which she will be missed, particularly by the large class of children who had weekly listen to her teachings and had learned to love their gentle instructor. She was also, while in Oswego, a member of the Woman's Temperance organization, and was ever found ready to engage to the uttermost extent of her means and opportunities, and any work which could result in good to her fellow creatures. Through her long illness of five weeks, she manifested the greatest patients, and even seemed disappointed at the prospect of recovery during a temporary change for the better. She longed for rest, rest which her loving, sympathetic heart could not permit her to enjoy while sickness and suffering remained to claim her efforts. And while the many friends who mourn her loss feel deeply the affliction that rests so heavily upon them, they cannot but realized that she, the object of their love, has passed on to the home she coveted, to the land where a loan can be found "rest for the weary soul." The funeral services were held at her late residence, Rev. Mr. Kenney, assisted by Rev. H. Skeel, officiating. The text was from John 17:24. | Brooks, Emma L. (I51207)

| 16333 | Newspaper Obituary - Thursday, December 25, 1890 Sandy Creek News - Sandy Creek, New York - Mr. John William Robotham was born in Pulaski, New York, March 19, 1859, and died in Sandy Creek, New York, October 19, 1890, aged 31 years and 7 months. Will, as he was familiarly called, was the only son of Mr. Charles Robotham, and a young man of sterling worth and integrity. He was beloved by all who knew him, and most by those who knew him best. He was married with Miss Meritta White, April 12, 1888, which makes for the young couple a little more than two years of wedded life. The deep grief expressed on the day of his funeral showed how strong was the attachment of these young people for each other. The suddenness of his demise makes the affliction more unbearable. How the slight cause, how sure the result! This home is doubly afflicted. You well remember the deaths of William and Asa Morrill in the pond near Belleville last July. These boys were united with Mr. Robotham’s family by marriage, so that the cup of bitterness with them has been well nigh fill. But the greatest consolation which these friends have in this hour of trial is the fact that there is One who knows all about it and does not make any mistakes, and is touched w ith the feeling of our infirmity and hath borne our griefs and carried our sorrows. He says, “Cast thy burden upon me and I will sustain thee.” Mr. Robotham leaves and sorrow not only the dear widowed wife, but a father and three sisters and other near kindred, who cherish his memory and good deeds but especially his dying testimony, “Shall we gather at the river?” | Robotham, John William (I71156)

| 16335 | Newspaper Obituary - Thursday, December 29, 1887 Pulaski Democrat - Pulaski, New York - Hon. Andrew S. Warner - It is with sadness we chronicled the demise of our worthy citizen, Col. A. S. Warner, of Sandy Creek Although [line missing] seen upon our streets only a day before his death, which occurred suddenly on the early morn of December 26, in his pleasant home where he had resided nearly fifty years. He was the son of Andrew Warner, Jr., and Elizabeth Clark Young, and was born January 12, 1819, in the town of Verona, Oneida County, New York. He was the second of ten children, of whom Mrs. S. C. Huntington of this village, Rev. W. W. Warner of Canastota, New York, and Mrs. A. A. Thompson, of Alhambra, California, are the only survivors. He, with his parents, moved to this country in March, 1837, and settled upon the farm that, by incessant toil and skillful management, he has brought up to the first rank among the homesteads of the country. He was twice married, his first wife being Miss Mary E. Green, of Mexico, by whom he had four sons and one daughter, of these, Adelbert A., of Tarkie, Missouri, and Geritt S., of this village, survive him. In October, 1860, he was married to Chloe Monroe of Sandy Creek, and by his second marriage he had four children, of whom Wilbert C., Monroe, and Warren W., are left to comfort, while they weep with their devoted mother. He was a man of great energy, decision, activity and strength of character. He took a prominent part in every public enterprise, and after the breaking out of the war of the Rebellion was active in organizing the 147th New York State Volunteers, of which he became the Colonel. In 1855 and '56 he was a member of the assembly, and in 1860 in 1861, those years which tried men's patriotism and stirred their souls, he represented this district in the State Senate. As a neighbor and citizen he was kind, faithful and true to his convictions. He was every inch a man, with as few foibles as fall to the lot of mortals. We leave to others to declare what he was as a brother, a husband, a father. There in that inner circle where he was best known will he be the most sadly missed. | Warner, Andrew Sylvester (I53827)

| 16346 | Newspaper Obituary - Thursday, December 31, 1885 Pulaski Democrat - Pulaski, New York - Orwell - Death of an Aged Inhabitant - On Wednesday, December 23, Mrs. Jane Potter, one of our oldest and highly respected inhabitants, laid down her earthly duties, and in obedience to a summons from above, went out into a glorious eternity with God and His redeemed ones. Jane Davis Potter was a native of Oneida County. She was born June, 1802, of Welch parentage. But when a young maiden she gave her heart to the Savior and united with the Presbyterian Church, since which time she has lived a devoted Christian life. When about eighteen years of age she was wooed and won by Mr. John Potter, and as young, daring, hopeful pioneers, they took up their residence in Orwell, where together they lived over sixty years. Mrs. Potter was the mother of eleven children, seven of whom survive her. These are Van Ness Potter, of Oshkosh, Wisconsin; Mrs. Orin Beadle, Alex Potter, Albert J. Potter, all of Orwell; L. D. Potter, of Pulaski; M. D. Potter, of Buena Vista, Colorado, and Mrs. Ellen Pennock, of Orwell. In those early days, church-goers were not kept at home by a sign of rain or by bad sidewalks, or even by worse roads through the forests. Mr. Potter Day saddled horse expressly for the deceased in her younger days, and she used to do her housework, prepare for church, ride eight or ten miles to "meeting," as the service was then called, and arrive on time, also. Like many of our old-time grandmothers, Mrs. Potter was healthy and strong and was never ill until her last sickness, which in about six weeks terminated in her death. The funeral was held from the residence of her son, Alex Potter, Esq., which is across the street from the old family homestead. Rev. Mr. Griffith, of Sandy Creek, officiated at the funeral, which was very largely attended, over thirty loaded sleighs being in the procession. Her four sons, who were present, acted as bearers. The remains were deposited in the Potter cemetery nearby, where so many of her kindred and family friends now are sepulchered. A long and consistent Christian life has peacefully terminated, but a delightful memory of good deeds and a dear mother's love remains. | Davis, Jane (I22615)
