Underhill, of near Cobleskill, New York. She was united in marriage to Butler Payne March 1911, and has been a resident of this community [Bainbridge, Chenango Co., NY] since that time.

The funeral service, which was held at the late residence on Thursday, November 8th, was conducted by Rev. Lester D. Huxtable, who was assisted by Rev. Harry E. Brooks. The interment took place in the Bainbridge cemetery. She is survived by a sorrowing husband, her daughter Lydia Moore of Afton, a father, Daniel L.

Lu Verne Elbert Payne passed away at his home on Mt. Pleasant [Bainbridge, Chenango Co., NY] at 2 o'clock last Monday morning, April 29, 1940, following a heart attack and bronchitis. Developing a heart ailment about eight years ago, following scarlet fever, Mr. Payne had been in poor health since that time. He had spent most of his life as a dairy farmer. [MHD notation: d. 1940]
Edson Pearsall, well known Bainbridge [Chenango Co., NY] farmer, passed away last Thursday morning at the Chenango Memorial Hospital, Norwich, following an operation just a week previous. At the time of the operation Mr. Pearsall's chances of recovery seemed very good, however, his advanced ago failed to withstand the shock and he gradually failed until death. Mr. Pearsall was born in Bainbridge on May 10, 1861, the son of David and Mary Manning Pearsall. His twin brother, Edgar, passed away on February 1, 1928. He received his education at the old Bainbridge Academy and then attended a secretarial school after which he entered the brokerage office of Charles B. vanNostrand, at 36 Wall street, New York City, where he was employed for about 23 years. In 1912, due to poor health of his twin brother, Edgar, who was then operating the homestead farm, Mr. Pearsall returned to Bainbridge and became actively engaged in dairy farming which he followed until the past April. He was keenly interested in all farming activities and when the Bainbridge Dairymen's League Association was organized became its secretary and treasurer, which office he held until the past annual meeting when he refused to continue longer in active service. He was also active in Home Bureau work and a member of the Bainbridge Farmer Co-operative association. Mr. Pearsall never having been married, was the last descendant of the family, only distant cousins surviving. The funeral service was held Saturday afternoon at his late home with the Rev. Sidney Heath, rector of St. Peter's Episcopal Church, officiating, followed by interment in St. Peter's cemetery. [MHD notation: July 1937]

Mr. Pearsall was well known here, having operated the William Hinman farm for several years.
Prominent Bainbridge Physician Died Tuesday from Scarlet Fever Contracted in Pursuit of Profession: No death has occurred in Bainbridge [Chenango Co., NY] which penetrated more deeply into the hearts of the people than that of Dr. Leal L. Perry, successful and prominent physician, who died early Tuesday morning from scarlet fever which disease he contracted during his fearless administration in the cause of the sick. Popular and genial Dr. Perry was in demand. He entered the homes where the pall of disease had settled, giving to the unfortunates his skill. His patients in the stricken homes live on while he has fallen a martyr to his profession. Six years ago Dr. Perry came to Bainbridge after his graduation from the Albany Medical College. At once his professional career was launched with success. He was recognized as a physician of unusual merit. Associated with his ability was a personality which spread confidence and radiated the comforting atmosphere of hope. Shadows which often fall in the wake of disease were lifted through his genial contact. He was young in years, 35. He had advanced so rapidly that his classification as a physician had taken a matured form. Success had perched its reward all about him. He had a fine home, splendidly equipped offices and a retinue of friends. He had attained honor in a comparatively short time and such an honor that will be a fitting memorial to him in the community where he initiated his work. Dr. Perry was born at Vanderbilt, Mich., thirty-five years ago. In 1907 he moved with his parents to Rushville, New York [Yates Co.]. He was a graduate of Canandaigua Academy and Albany Medical College, finishing at the latter institution in 1925. He served in the Albany Medical College, coming to Bainbridge in 1926. He is survived by a wife, a sister, Mrs. Zoe Keuhne, of Rushville, and two brothers, Herbert, of Honolulu and Raymond, of Westfield, N.Y. The flags which fly to the breeze on each holiday in front of business places of the village were placed at half mast and drooped to his memory until his funeral had passed. This is the first occasion that the flags of the village have been placed in honor of one of her citizens. The funeral was held Wednesday afternoon at 2 o'clock with no services except at the grave. The American Legion Post, of which the deceased was a member, attended as an escort Rev. G.H. Orvis, of the Presbyterian Church, officiated. [published April 14, 1932]
T. Henry Petley, 79, died at his home at 12 Johnson street, Bainbridge [Chenango Co., NY], May 17, 1950. Born Mar. 1, 1871, in Bainbridge, he was the eldest son of Thomas and Betsey (Hamilton) Petley. He attended the local school and worked on his father's farms until his marriage to Miss Isabelle Ireland on Dec. 30, 1902, when he began working in a creamery at North Sanford, later he became manager of a creamery in Coventry. Mr. Petley was a member of the Bainbridge Methodist Church. In 1905 he purchased a farm on Bush Hill where his family had their home until 1912. He later began erecting lightening rods, and in 1918, he traveled through New York State as salesman for his company until 1920 when he resigned because of deafness. He spent the rest of his life around Bainbridge except for two years in Florida (1948-49), where he fractured his hip bone. The fracture healed but arthritis developed which caused his death. Surviving are his widow, Isabelle Ireland Petley, of Bainbridge; a son, Leslie, of Fort Lauderdale, Fla.; three daughters, Mrs. Carl Hovey, Mrs. Raymond Garrison and Mrs. Arlie Crawford, all of Bainbridge; a brother, Bert Petley, of Bainbridge; two sisters, Mrs. Nancy Blincoe, of Guilford, and Mrs. William Northrup of Bainbridge; 10 grandchildren and one great grandchild. The funeral was held Saturday at the Harold Sherman Funeral Chapel with the Rev. C. Duane Butler officiating. The pallbearers were: Bert Bliss, Howard Bliss, Roland James and Charles Blincoe. Interment was in the Greenlawn Cemetery [Bainbridge, Chenango Co., NY].
