Dr. Maynard and wife and the wife of Ira Carington of Lansingville [Tompkins Co., NY], were drowned while crossing the creek at what is known as "Binnacle's Bridge," on Thursday night of last week. They had been attending the donation of Rev. W.H. Smith, at Hamden, and started to return home at about 11 o'clock in the evening, and it is supposed that on attempting to cross the bridge which was entirely covered with water, they got below it, and the water being swift, they were carried down with the stream. The bodies of the doctor and his wife were bound on Friday, about a mile below the bridge. [Bainbridge Republican, Jan. 25, 1873]
About 2 o'clock Monday morning, Cyrus Dimmick, aged some 21 years, son of Francis K. Dimmock, Esq., of Smyrna [Chenango Co., NY], died suddenly under the following circumstances: Near 7 o'clock the previous evening, feeling somewhat indisposed and being nervous and restless, he took a dose of Hydrate of Chloral and retired for the night. Between 11 and 12 his father went to his room and found his son unconscious, in a deep stupor, and stertorous breathing, apparently in a dying condition. Medical assistance was promptly called but to no purpose, and he died as above stated. He was not only an only son, but an only child, and is spoken of as possessing excellent talent, and many noble qualities of head and heart.--Chenango Union [Bainbridge Republican, Feb. 8, 1873]
On Saturday, at about eleven o'clock, Henry Nightingale, of McDonough [Chenango Co., NY] went out to a barn near his house to do his chores. Not coming home, late in the forenoon his family sent out to see what the mater was, when he was found insensible, his extremities considerably frozen. He was at once removed to the house and died in a few moments. He was about 75 years of age, and it is supposed he had a fit which incapacitated him from returning to the house. He had resided in McDonough for many years and enjoyed the confidence and respect of all who knew him. [Bainbridge Republican, Feb. 9, 1973]
Died--At his residence in Bainbridge, Feb. 10th, Ansel Evans, aged 83 years. Mr. Evans was a son of Major Henry Evans who came from Guilford, Vt., in 1794, and commenced improvements on lot No. 80 in Bainbridge [Chenango Co., NY]. Some three or four years later he removed his family from Guilford to this place, and a majority of his children have resided here. The descendants are numerous, and a notice of them would constitute, in great measure, the history of Bainbridge. The deceased ever maintained the character of a good citizen and the respect of a community at large. For many years he has been a communicant of St. Peter's Church, Bainbridge, and has by his acts illustrated the Christian life. In his death we sustain the loss. He the greatest gain.
