Bonner, which occurred at his home at Orwell, New York, Friday evening, July 12, the community lost a valuable and respected citizen, and the church a loyal and substantial friend. The departed was born June 10, 1846, in the town of Orwell, being the son of John and Maria Burkett Bonner, whose ancestors came from England during the American Revolution, and were participants in the struggle for independence. On August 12, 1866, he was united in marriage to Miss Hannah Beadle, who with two children, Mrs. Gilbert Hadley, of Sandy Creek, and Clarence, of Ellisburg, survive him.

| 17265 | Newspaper Obituary - Wednesday, July 25, 1849 Richland Courier - Pulaski, New York - Painful Occurrence - On Friday last while hands on the brick yard of William H. Lester were employed in striking, the water wheel that drives the machine for mixing the clay suddenly stopped. Mr. Lester proceeded to remove the cap from the wheel for the purpose of clearing it, when, shocking to relate, he found the lifeless form of his only son, a child of three and a half years old, in the wheel. We may imagine, but cannot paint, the agony of the father at this unexpected development. The child had been at play in the yard and unseen by anyone had fallen into the flume as it passed through into the wheel; how long he had been in that situation could not be learned, but all endeavors to resuscitate were unavailing and he was followed to the grave on Saturday. | Lester, Henry C (I70075)

| 17294 | Newspaper Obituary - Wednesday, June 15, 1904 Pulaski Democrat - Pulaski, New York - Orwell - Mrs. Emily Allen Damon, wife of William Damon, died at her late residence in Orwell, New York, June 3, 1904, in the fifty-ninth year of her age. She was born in the town of Western and moved with her husband, to this town when first married. She was the mother of five boys and four girls, all of whom with her husband survive her, except one who died in infancy. Mrs. Damon was a faithful and virtuous wife, a kind and devoted mother, an obliging and helpful neighbor and a valuable addition to society in its best sense. She was of a reticent and modest disposition, a person of few words, but her ferocity and honesty made those words when spoken like “apples of gold in pictures of silver.” She was an interested participant in every good cause. Suffering and sin as she saw it about her awoke her energies and enlisted her prayers. She had been a member of the W.C.T.C. for many years and wore the white ribbon to her grave. Early in life she came under the influence of the gospel and at once saw and appropriated the attractions of a Christian life by giving her heart to God. She was baptized and joined the Methodist Protestant Church, in Chateaugay, and afterward moving to the village of Orwell she united with the Methodist Episcopal Church, of which church she continued a faithful and consistent member until her death. She was a constant attendant upon the Sabbath and midweek services of the church until prostrated by disease, two weeks before her decease. Her testimony of the grace and power of God in her own soul in the last class meeting she attended, which was just two weeks before her burial, was not only a witness to the goodness of God but also of her obedience to the divine will. Her fatal sickness was one of extreme suffering baffling the skill of the physicians and in less than two weeks after being taken sick, she died in the full assurance of her faith. Her funeral, which was held on the Sabbath, June 5th, from her late residence, was largely attended and the floral display beautiful, her pastor, Rev. W. J. Cross, officiating and her body was laid to rest in Orwell's picturesque cemetery. | Allen, Emily M. (I72854)
