- Newspaper Article - Wednesday, July 4, 1894 Pulaski Democrat - Pulaski, New York - Richland - We were surprised this morning by a call from Norton P. Wood, of Ohio, formerly of Holmesville. Nort thinks that there is no place like home. "The dearest spot to him on Earth is Holmesville, sweet Holmesville." He brings the sad news of the death of Mrs. Oscar Douglas. Perhaps there never lived a purer, truer, more conscientious woman than she.
Newspaper Obituary - Wednesday, July 4, 1894 Pulaski Democrat - Pulaski, New York - South Richland - Died at her home, Mrs. O. Douglass, she has been ill a long time but has borne all her pain and suffering without murmuring. She was a Christian lady, sweet dispositioned, quiet and inoffensive. She had many friends. Her everyday life is a living testimony which will live on and on while she sleeps and rests, safe in the arms of Jesus. Although expected, the affliction falls heavily upon the daughter who lived with her and attended every want and a shade of sadness has settled over the community. She leaves to mourn her loss a daughter, Mrs. Hutchings, and a son, Rev. Henry Douglass; burial was held on Friday. Rev. Main, of Mexico, officiated, interment at Willis cemetery.
