Newspaper Obituary - Thursday, December 18, 1890 Pulaski Democrat - Pulaski, New York - Died - In this village, December 9th, 1890, at the residence of his son-in-law, Captain C. H. Ripson, Lucius B. Cole, aged 83 years. The deceased was born in the state of Massachusetts, town of Cheshire, Berkshire county, from that state with his parents to this, locating in Adams, Jefferson County. He came to this place in 1827 with his father, engaging with him in the manufacture of harnesses. At the age of 22 he was married to Miss Phoebe Case, by whom he had four sons and one daughter. About four years after the decease of his first wife, he married Mrs. Sarah Page, by whom he had but one child, a daughter, at whose home in this village he received the most affectionate and assiduous care and nurture, by which the sufferings of his last lingering, yet painful sickness were alleviated. In 1848 Mr. Cole removed to Port Ontario where he has continued to reside until the time of his decease. Mr. Cole has occupied, by official and governmental appointment, as well as by the suffrages of his fellow citizens, a number of offices of responsibility and trust. He served a full term as deputy-sheriff, was for several terms collector of the United States revenues at Port Ontario, also for a term of years post master and Justice of the Peace for twenty-eight years. In all these positions he has maintained an unimpeachable reputation for integrity and fidelity as well as competency in the discharge of his duties. Mr. Cole has been a member of the M. E. church for more than thirty-five years, exemplary and honored in that relation for his purity and devotion of his Christian life and character. He was one of the original founders of the Masonic Fraternity in this village. His last days and hours were chiefly occupied in repeating the Lord's prayer and sacred hymns, especially those descriptive of the heavenly home, its rest from conflicts and trials, its peace and especially its praises. Thus has passed away one who "has come to the grave in a full age like as a shock of corn cometh in, in his season." The funeral services were held at the house of Captain C. H. Ripsom on the 11th, with the attendance and services of the Masonic Fraternity, Rev. Dr. Douglas officiating as clergyman.
